VDownloader is a download manager for video sharing sites such as YouTube, Google Video, Grinvi and DailyMotion. Given the URL for a video clip, it downloads the clip and automatically converts it to AVI, MPEG or PSP. It supports batch downloading and clipboard monitoring.
Note: The latest version (0.77) of VDownloader writes settings to the user profile folder. As such, I am making the older version (0.73) available for direct download until further notice. Alternatively, you can try the JPE launcher for this application.

I've tried using this app several times and I'm getting a URL not valid error. I've tried to cut and paste the URL from FireFox and used the embedded browser in VDownloader. Even when selecting a video from inside the VDownloader browser and playing it, when I try to download it tells me it's not a valid URL. It's not a firewall issue (I'm assuming that because VDownloader loads YouTube in the browser just fine). After about 5 tries I brought up Youtube Downloader HD and it download the file from the same URL that VDownloader says isn't valid. I've never used this particular app before but I didn't see anyone else with the same problem so I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas?

You don't have to extract anything, just unzip the package and launch VDownloader.exe

My universal extractor won't extract the installer, says it "cannot be extracted. Filetype returned was Borland Delphi 6.0 - 7.0 [Overlay]." Anybody have any idea what this means?

I have Vdownlaoder and was using it quite happily, then suddenly it stops downlaoding, suring the "queued" part it says " error downlading file" , is the server no longer running or soemthing...? please get back to me at scorpion_queen_11@hotmail.com thanks

It seems that PortableTester is right. With the current version, 0.76, I tried both creating a blank settings file, and moving the one it creates into the app's directory. Neither worked, and the settings file gets written where PortableTester said. Anybody else have an idea?
My 2 cents - if you have an older, portable version, keep using it. I can't tell what new functionality, if any, has been added anyway...

This is no longer portable as it stores its settings file in the %username%\Local Settings\Application Data\vdownloader folder. (Previous post was submitted mistakenly)
Nice, but lacks adjustable settings

Nice prog, I like that one can choose between a lot of formats to have the downloaded file output it, but it lacks a bit in the settings department. I downloaded some youtube vids as plain mp3 files, the output is pretty low: 56 kbps/22 khz. Can't find options to adjust this in the programme.

Follow up:
Found the problem problem was in Windows XP regional time format layout. I'll take back the CRAP statement but suggest this could be solved programmatically.

Not worth what I paid for it.
I tried on two different machine (running from a flash (as it was advertised as a portable app v73). Got error "not a valid date", Googled it no support, have to move on to other things..CRAP.
BillO255: I didn't have great luck with VDownloader -- I'd recommend trying one of the other download tools on the site including YoutubeDownloaderHD or Video Backup Fusion.
