Crashing

[Woowoo2]

Nope, not for me - see also here

which provider? sample title?

btw: Please do not post the same thing twice

Well I obviously didn’t mean to post the same thing twice.

Please have less of the attitude, thank you.

Yes, it’s not working for me either. Never had this problem before.

As soon as I begin adding titles to the download queue, a dialog pops up saying that StreamFab has encountered an error and needs to close.

Germania You obviously have the magic touch!

U is stil working fine for me in version 6.2.2.1 but it crashed when I started adding to a queue when I went back to 6.2.2.8. I can see Germania's download screenshot above but for me, it sometimes lets me add one or two programmes to the queue before it crashes StreamFab.

Has anyone reported it?

I've tried reporting it, but I never find their "help" very helpful. Your welcome to try though.

[Sky West]

Thanks Ninko. Yes, I'll report it as well. It might make no difference but I always think that the more people that report something (especially for a fairly niche website) the more chance there is that Streamfab will look into the issue.

[Woowoo2]

I reported it and they just said to uninstall, delete the files, empty cache, reinstall, etc. But none of that fixed it.

[Sky West]

Thanks Woowoo2. Yes, that's a fairly standard response from them to a lot of issues I've raised.

In fairness you could argue that they're trying to eliminate alternative possibilities but I'm hoping that if enough of us keep reporting this issue, then eventually they'll work on a fix.

so the work around seems to be to download a single file then to download using another downloader (I'm downloading from channel 4, for example) wait for the second download to complete, then to go back to the first site; and continue this dance till you've downloaded all you wanted.

PS: doesn't work if you just add a file to the dl list

PPS: literally as soon as I posted it, and having gone through ~16 episodes with no crashes, SF started crashing on every single one

As per the first post on this thread, I can sometimes add 2-3 downloads to a queue without it crashing in 6.2.2.9 but other times it crashes when I try to add a single download.

Each time I want to use u.co.uk I reinstall 6.2.2.1 and it lets me add as many downloads as I want without crashing.

Hopefully if enough of us report it, then they will find a fix but I'm going try Wilson Wang just in case he's not aware of the issue and can do anything to help.

You can just install each iteration into its own directory, my structure is something like:

C:\Program Files\StreamFab\<version number>


The updater just checks whatever version you installed last

Wilson.Wang , I observe similar: 6221 does not suffer from non-deterministic crashes, so whatever changed after that is the cause

[Woowoo2]

Still not working for me. support said to update to latest version but exactly the same thing happens. So I’m guessing this ain’t ever gonna be fixed? Waste of bloody money!

How do you install 6.2.2.1??

How do you install 6.2.2.1??

You either need extended download service (usually an added $9.99), or what many users do is keep older versions.
You can even set aside a USB storage stick in at least 8, 16, 32, or 64 GB size. And dedicate it to saving older SF versions.
