This is an incremental update but there are some neat changes made. The main motivation for releasing an update is that YouTube changed the format for high quality videos so the YouTube parser would only get the low quality version of videos. Now, the mp4 version of the file is used as the high quality video file on YouTube. Changes:

  • Changed YouTube page parser to get the new default high quality format
  • Experimental Windows release. Both the GUI and command-line versions work
  • Site directories option added. Videos from a particular site are saved in their own directories
  • Small preferences window added. FFmpeg location and site directories option can be set
  • GirlsInTube parser added
  • Timed updating of GUI. Download and transcode information is updated every 1/2 second. This is mainly for Windows since updating after each message from ffmpeg or wget was too intensive and would cause Windows to slow down
  • Changed regular expressions used with ffmpeg due to new Ubuntu package
  • RedTube and DailyMotion parsers fixed
  • Fixed some issues with the padding code
