Downloads not working

[CrazyCrud]

Thank you for your work.

I tried a few different URLs but the download doesn't seem to work anymore. I can choose between the options but when I press the download button nothing happens.

I'm on Windows 64.

Thanks in advance!

Having the same issue when trying on Linux. Click "Download" and get no output at all, nothing appears to happen.

Hey @CrazyCrud / @r0bbie!

Sorry for the late response, yep. lot's of things were broken and apparently ytdl-core released an update. I've published 1.0.3 where these things should be fixed :)

[CrazyCrud]

Hey @simonwep,

no problem and thank you for you response!
Unfortunately, I still get the same error with the new version 1.0.3.
I'll download the source and maybe I can provide you with more information on the problem.

[simonwep]

@CrazyCrud Yep, can confirm 1.0.3 is broken. Seems like a major dependence update was responsible for that. I've published 1.0.4 where this should be fixed :)

@simonwep this is happening for me and I'm using 1.0.4

[Joshuabump]

in the console, it says this whenever I click download

[simonwep]

I've made major changes / updates. Check out the latest release!

[CrazyCrud]

@simonwep Thank you for the new release. The download seems to work now.

Hey @simonwep I've got a similar issue on the v1.1.0, when I enter the video link, it starts elaborating and shows the loading icon but then I don't get any results

No results screenshot:

@Ampsicora Try the unshorted url, youtu.be may not be supported right now.

Unfortunately I get the same issue

I had the same issue. I recommend to run from source instead of release version, since the ytdl-core module is being constantly updated. Follow these steps:

Clone repo
npm install

Update ytdl-core to latest version:
npm install ytdl-core@latest

Then start the application with
npm run electron:serve

@r0bbie @Ampsicora I'll release a new patch version with the updated ytdl-core version later this week!

Same issue for me, high CPU and hanging and adding a YouTube link does nothing. Looking forward to the update! :)
