For the record, I can't get this (32-bit) to work.

It looks like all is going well but there is no hard drive activity and no file is ever downloaded.

I've also tried changing the target location to a network share. Still no download.

Saves it as a clipgrab-download-XXXXXX in /tmp, once downloaded converts it to the format you selected to save-as into the download directory you specify, It may not be converting for you

Geoffrey,

Thanks for the reply.

I looked in /tmp and don't see anything relating to clipgrab, at least from what I can tell.

Upon further experimenting, the problem is with 720P and 1080P Youtube downloads.

480P works fine.

2014, it's time to bury clipgrab or to take advantage of Qt included in tahrpup ?
