User Manual

Do you have an user manual with step-by-step instructions on how to start doing various activities,

ie, downloading, file conversion, playing a video, and burning?

I just installed your VDownloader and updated to the latest version.  I launched the program but could

NOT figure out how to start downloading a video.  Your quick answer would be appreciated.

Dear Joseph,

There are three main ways to download a video using VDownloader:

a) by copying a URL: http://www.screencast.com/t/MVglstyFy

b) by searching a video: http://www.screencast.com/t/ABWXZ88ro

c) by using the built-in browser: http://www.screencast.com/t/J2HlLrJkAEwe

Please let me know if there's anything else I can help you with.

Best Regards,

Hi Diogo,

 
Thank you very much for your reply with three answers.  I now figured out how to use 
copy & paste URL to do the download.  Tried a few URLs and some worked
while some did not.  May be those were set up not for downloadable? 
 
Here are the two URLs which I could play it within my email (Hotmail.com)
but could NOT be downloaded in VDownloader program:
 
 
 
Could you try them out and let me know are they downloadable?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
 
Best regards,
Joseph

Hi Joseph,

I'm glad that you were able to figure out how to download your favorite videos.

Regarding those two URLs:

1) That URL isn't a regular YouTube URL, and therefore isn't detected by VDownloader. What you need to do in this case is to click the YouTube logo at the bottom right-hand corner of the page. It will take you to YouTube's "normal" page. You can then copy the URL that is shown by YouTube. In this case, that would be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRFq7K4vCSk

2) We are going to fix this in the next update. There is a workaround though: Please click the "paper plane" (labeled as "Share") in the top right-hand corner of the page, and then click in the URL that is shown. It will take you to the video's page (https://vimeo.com/107995891). That one should be correctly identified by VDownloader.

Hi Joseph,

You're welcome!

Have you managed to download those videos by using those "work around" methods?
