Easy Youtube Video Downloader Express by Dishita

by Firefox user 13305445, 7 years agoThe developer responds quickly to bug reports in reviews, although he complains that users "jump quickly" to post negative reviews "as soon as a bug appears."
Well, how would a new user know that a bug just appeared? Furthermore, the developer's support page says that the support system is shut off, except for paying "pro" customers. That leaves reviews as our only means of communicating problems.
And there are still problems. The developer quickly fixed an issue where the "download as" buttons did nothing (referred to in the "fixed" message below)... but the plug-in still does not appear to work. I did in fact upgrade to the "pro" version so I could download 1080p material, but an attempt to do so simply evokes a "dispatched for processing" message. After 45 minutes, I still have no sign of the video being downloaded.
The publisher's user forum ( https://youtube-downloader.uservoice.com/forums/225282-general ) is useless. It lets you type out an entire question (or "idea") but the "Post idea" button does nothing. Don't waste your time.

posted 7 years agoPlease update to the latest bug-fix version 10.3 to fix the issue, it's sad to see users jumping to put -ve rating as soon as a bug appears while the addon has offered fastest updates and years of bug-free functionality.
If the new update fixes your concerns pls. update your ratings and review here.

- Rated 3 out of 5by nobody1023, 2 days agoYouTube apparently changed their code again or something, thought these guys were hiding behind a paywall but the other online downloaders I went too either aren't showing 720p or do but the link to download doesn't work.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Robert, 2 days agoExtensión inútil. ahora solo puedes descargar videos en 720 si eres "pro". las mismas practicas codiciosas de siempre. VIVA LA PIRATERÍA!!!!
- Rated 1 out of 5by malau, 2 days agoDev hid 720p downloads behind a paywall !
Who wants to download 480p videos in 2024 ? This is now a USELESS extension and not fit for purpose. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14880303, 3 days agoI'm going to wait until July 1st to see if the dev adds back the 720p, if he keeps it locked behind a paywall I'm deleting this addon, there are plenty of free yt dl websites that allow you to copy paste & download the yt link, something Ive been doing for the past few days

- Rated 1 out of 5by Seldon73, 3 days agoHas become a 'freemium' addon, removing features by inches. Anything better than 360p is now behind the paywall. True, Youtube now separates the video and audio files, which is annoying, but plenty of still-free options are capable of smushing them back together. I'm switching back to yt-dlp. EYtV Downloader was once wonderfully convenient, but now it's nearly useless without a 'Pro' account.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Mason Sparky, 3 days agoEasy Youtube Video Downloader works perfectly for me to archive videos. The UI is clean and gets the job done with few clicks. Dishita quickly provides updates when youtube changes its back end.
