My goodness how bad can this program keep getting with every update.
Someone please explain to me why there is not a basic timeout or fail if a scheduled youtube video just keep looping on analyze? why do I have to keep closing the program and reopening it, then refreshing for new videos, just for my downloads to start up again and then get stuck on ANALYZING!!!!!
Someone please explain to me what is so hard to put a basic timeout, have it fail, and move on to the next video for downloading? anyone?
This program is just absolute junk. From the clunky-ness of the program, the slowness, the god-awful user interface, and the continued failed updates that I have to go into my account to de-active a device, uninstall the program, reboot the computer and re-install it just so I can get something basic to work. Let's not talk about the folder creation that even though it creates the folder for the youtube channel, if I want to remove the folder completely, I have to go into command line and delete the parent folder that has the rest of the channels in order to remove the folder in question. Why because for some reason after the folder gets created by streamfab, windows thinks it is no longer located where it was created. How unfortunate that I can no longer get my money back. What a freakin rip-off.
300 hundred dollars for junk program that doesn't work. God I miss Anystream. SMH!!!!
I do agree that they should have a timeout for analyzing, but it would also have to have user input as to how long, as some sites can take a few minutes to analyze and others only take a few seconds.
I also agree for the price they charge they can and SHOULD do better, but it does work on most of the providers I try most times.I never heard of anyone who needs to deactivate and assuming then you activate again to fix an issue. Doing a proper
clean uninstall/install fixes most issues, for me I only need to delete all files from %HOMEPATH%\Documents\DVDFab\StreamFab\ and then all files except streamfab.ini from %HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\DVDFab\StreamFab\
I rather not even discuss Anystream as I only got a very short time to use it before they stole everyone's money and disappeared. But if my memory serves me right, they did maybe 10 or 12 sites and also theCW should not even count as Anystream only got certain videos from that site. When I used it for that short time All of Netflix was in 540p yet streamfab got much content in 1080p. And there NO one will ever get their money back, as they went to cryptocurrency before they disappeared.
Now don't get me wrong, streamfab has issues, and it gets very frustrating as if you report anything, they do little about any problems or concerns.
For now, you will need to stop any downloading from YT as streamfab gets stuck on analyzing trying any videos on almost the whole site.
If you're fine with not doing DIRECT DOWNLOADING, then get Playon or some other type of recording downloader, another one is Recordfab.
I also never heard of issues with folder not being created or in the wrong place if your trouble is deleting folders that could be because streamfab has it locked and then just a simple reboot fixes that if not then you have a Windows or system issue. My folders are always where I expect them and never have an issue deleting them, etc.
Sadly, your only choice if you're so unhappy is to stop using it and again try to find another program that even comes close to 1000 sites and direct downloading from them all.
I also don't know any software that does more than 30 day money back, and then you're stuck and in fact there are a number of software programs that if they offer a trial they have NO money-back offer as they will tell you, you should have found out during the trial. Now I also will say streamfab's 14 day is lame, but it is what it is, and they don't hide it.
