Hello!

Which product are you using?

There are several reasons why this might happen. Foremost among them is some issue with your FFmpeg installation.

New Version! 📣

Hello everyone,

I have just finished updating the YouTube-to-Mp3 (and more!) Converter software. New in this version:

1. Reorganized and refactored software code to support namespaces and a more modern directory structure
2. Updated all available supported site extractors
3. Added a "native" M3U8 playlist download option, that enables playlist downloads without the use of FFmpeg
4. Prepped the software for compatibility with new "Anti-Captcha Plugin" (and added general plugin support)
5. Various (minor) bug fixes and refactoring of code.

Note: This is an extensive and broad-sweeping update since the last major version release. I.e., most files have changed!
Thus, it is NOT advisable to attempt an in-place upgrade of files. Instead, the following approach is strongly recommended:

1) Install the new, default, unmodified software version, and then
2) Apply any prior, custom modifications to the new code base.


If you purchased the software via Tradebit.com, Tinypass.com, or Sendowl.com, then you will be e-mailed a link to download the new version for Free!.

If you create a new language file for the software, please donate the file to the code base so that others can benefit from your translations! Simply send me a copy of your updated index.xml file as well as your new *.xml translation file, and I will add it to the software in a future release!

Custom templates and "extras" are available!! Please contact me for more information!


Please report any issues with either the paid-for version or the free version in this forum thread. Your feedback is encouraged. Donations are welcome!

Thank you!

Hello everybody,

found a problem with Google Chrome.

If you click on Download after converting, nothing will be downloaded.
(It doesn't work either on my or on the demo website. I also tried 2 different computers & completely reset Chrome) The problem persists.

To download it via Chrome anyway, you have to either right-click on Download after the conversion, then click on Open link in a new tap ... or you go to edit the file, then done and can then download it as usual.

With Firefox & Opera it works without any problems.

Does anyone else have the same problem?

Hi there,

I just downloaded and converted a video to MP3 on the demo site, using Chrome browser, and I had no issue. (I'm currently using a desktop computer.)

So, I'm unable to reproduce the issue. That said, if you can provide me with the means to reproduce the issue, then I will troubleshoot further.

Thank you!

Hello!

This is the JS console message in Chrome Version 88.0.4324.104 (the latest release) for the demo site, when downloading an MP3:

Mixed Content: The site at '[COLOR=#ff0000][B]https[/B][/COLOR]://www.grabfrom.com/' was loaded over a secure connection, but the file at '[COLOR=#ff0000][B]https[/B][/COLOR]://www.grabfrom.com/Converter/index.php?output=yt/CevxZvSJLk8/128%7e%7e1%7e%7eKaty_Perry_-_Roar_Official_uuid-601937e999262.mp3' was redirected through an insecure connection. This file should be served over HTTPS. This download will be blocked in future versions of Chrome. See https://blog.chromium.org/2020/02/protecting-users-from-insecure.html for more details.

Even so, the download is still working for me. (I can't explain it, given Google's timeline.)

Upon further review, I have replaced several instances of:

href="http://..."

...with:

href="//..."

in index.php, inc/index_js.php, and ffmpeg_edit.php. (The demo site has been similarly updated.)

This seems to have eliminated the mixed content issue, and I believe it should resolve your issue as well.

Additionally, one of the software's URL rewriting rules in the included .htaccess file, IF enabled (it is disabled by default), is designed to redirect downloads to HTTP -- because there was a time when we could not get downloads to work via an HTTPS connection when also using Cloudflare's CDN/HTTP Proxy, i.e.:

#Uncomment the following lines as instructed to redirect all http:// requests to https://
#If using Cloudflare SSL, uncomment this line
#RewriteCond %{HTTP:CF-Visitor} {"scheme":"http"}
#If NOT using Cloudflare SSL, uncomment this line
#RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
#Always uncomment these lines
[COLOR=#ff0000][B]#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.mp3|.aac|.m4a|.mp4|.webm|.f4v|.3gp)$[/B][/COLOR]
#RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

However, that Cloudflare issue no longer exists, so IF you are enabling this rewrite rule, then you can safely remove the line in bold, red text. Then the rule should work as intended for all requests, including audio/video downloads.

In any case, I am going to release a minor software update soon that fixes this issue as well as another small caching issue. (All fixes are minor modifications to the code that were simply overlooked in the recent, major version release.) All existing customers will be emailed links (again) to download their Free, updated software.

Thank you for your assistance in reporting and resolving this issue!

Hello chump2877,

is it possible to convert age-specific videos in a new version?

You can convert / download videos from other converter sites without any problem.
Then it should definitely be possible that the YouTube-to-Mp3 (and more!) Converter Script also works.

Hello!

Age-restricted YouTube videos are already working in the YouTube-to-Mp3 (and more!) Converter software, e.g.: https://www.grabfrom.com/Converter/?...be/B3eAMGXFw1o

Is there a specific video (or videos) that is not working for you, either on the demo site or your own website?

Please let me know, and thank you!

Hello!

Can you provide a Facebook URL (or URLs) that demonstrates the issue?

In the meantime, do these videos require one to log in first? If so, then we've never actually supported the download of "private" Facebook videos.

While there is still a way to download age-restricted YouTube videos that circumvents an actual login, the only way to access private Facebook videos (age-restricted or not) is with a username and password. (And, typically, this also depends on restrictions imposed by the uploader!)

Moreover, asking your website traffic for Facebook login credentials is generally not the solution. In our experience, that path is a slippery slope, and it generally does not yield a scalable, long-term means of accessing private content.

So, alternatively, what we might try (and assuming it is BOTH possible AND practical), is to have our customers login to Facebook with their own FB account, grab the resulting login cookie, and then our software programmatically manipulates this cookie to their advantage (to access age-restricted content). In fact, this approach is similar to how the (new!) Anti-Captcha Plugin for YouTube-to-Mp3 Converter already works. This Plugin, in addition to solving CAPTCHAs (and bypassing IP bans) for supported sites, is also leveraging a site's (e.g., YouTube's) login cookie to access age-restricted and/or private content.

Please review the following links to gain some insight into how this is implemented:

1) Features & Benefits
2) How to install the YouTube-to-Mp3 Converter "Anti-Captcha Plugin"

An excerpt from the first article:

Leverages "login" and "abuse" cookies stored on your server. (Yes, the same kind of cookies used in your browser!) These cookies enable your primary Server IP to send a nearly unlimited number of YouTube requests before the cookies expire -- because the cookies are bound by set time limits and not necessarily the number of YouTube requests!

The Plugin currently only supports YouTube and Google Drive at this time, but I've intentionally allowed for the possible, future addition of more supported sites. So, perhaps Facebook should be the next addition!

In any case, please send me your URL(s), and please allow me some time to pursue this idea further.

Thank you!

If you want to download this video, you get the error message: "Unknown"
I tried other converter sites, most of them can be downloaded without any problems.
