Hi,

The new feature is not for the YouTube.

The dev is checking for the crash problem.

No doubt the same response as well.
No log, no steps to recreate the issue, nothing.

[yoyo57]

I posted to advise others of the issue. The log file is created automatically when the app crashes, and the app sends it to DVDFAB team. And Wilson.Wang advises today that dev is checking for the crash problem. So all in hand.

No log, no steps to recreate the issue, nothing.

Not all actions by the Staff, Moderators, or User Volunteers are out in the open. I assure you that in this case, the issue was recreated in slightly more than an hour after it was initially reported and referred to the Developer.

Yeah, that's understood
I have experienced the tab crashes since day one and it was reported way back when. Interesting to see if the update fixes that.

Hi,

Please update to the new version 6156 and try it again.

Hi Wilson - I've updated to 6157 and still no change - StreamFab crashes as soon as I try to sign in, which is apparently required for anything above a PG-rating.

I'm actually trying to access the YouTube Movies Downloader trial to see if it's worth purchasing along with Channel 4 during the holiday deal, and I have to say that instantly crashing really isn't...um...exactly a wallet-opening performance, you know?

Do you have an update on the devs' progress on this issue?

[Cats4U]

So, your issue is with the YouTube Movies Downloader and not the plain YouTube module, which was fixed with 6.1.5.6? Log file, please.

Have you tried manually importing the cookies for youTube like I had to do recently?

Dammit - my apologies for not realizing they're two different things. Obviously I would have started a separate thread had I picked up on that - thanks for the correction. Log attached.

I saw your earlier post about this fix and considered trying it because it's a clever workaround and was so similar to my issue, but ran up against the Chrome extension of cookies.txt actually stating there's no cookies for the site, so what the...? I'm well and truly stumped at this point.

Did you try the second way for the extension? Use ALL instead of current site? That might be a huge cookie file though, maybe not. The extension is from Lennon Hill right? When I searched for it on FF, there were several different ones from different authors.

Or try this:
Clear your browser cache why hitting Shift + Ctrl + Delete. I usually select just cache, not browsing history or cookies, etc.
Log Out of YouTube.
Close the browser.
Log In to Youtube
Try exporting cookies now.

jpp72 mentioned that MS Edge locks the cookies file, maybe chrome does too. This extension is probably supposed to override that.

I know it might suck, but you might want to go in to your cookies setting manually in Chrome and delete anything with YouTube, close out, reopen and sign back in.


When I was originally desperate a month ago or so, I installed Chrome to make the auto-login work. You might want to consider installing FF just for the sake of this exercise if you can't get the Chrome route to work with the cookies.txt program.
