I just tested this app (version 1.9) and it keeps creating a folder
in the "%UserProfile%\ApplicationData\Youtube Downloader HD"
to make a backup of its ini file.

Am I doing something wrong?
Do I need to edit the ini file in someway?

There are no details on how to fix this! I did quick search for 1.8 and found http://www.downloadsofts.com/download/N ... tails.html, but should it replace TPFC entry?

I meant if the download link points to V1.9 should we change it to the last Portable version (V1.8)?

Here is a temporary fix to deal with the INI file that is saved in the %APPDATA% folder.

AutoIt code:

Code: Select all

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Au3Check_Parameters=-d -w 1 -w 2 -w 3 -w 4 -w 5 -w 6 -w 7
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Icon=Bin\ICON_1.ico
#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseUpx=Y
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Description=youtube Downloader HD.
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion=1.0.0.0
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_LegalCopyright=nocopyright
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Language=2057
#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=N
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Obfuscator=Y
#Obfuscator_Parameters=/SF /SV /OM /CS=0 /CN=0
#AutoIt3Wrapper_res_requestedExecutionLevel=asInvoker
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Outfile_Type=exe
#NoTrayIcon
#RequireAdmin

_Main()

Func _Main()
	Local $aMoveTo[2] = [1, _
			"YouTubeDownloaderHD.ini"]
	Local $sFilePath = @ScriptDir & "\YouTubeDownloaderHD.exe"
	Local $sPortablePath = @ScriptDir & "\", $sLocalPath = @AppDataDir & "\Youtube Downloader HD\"

	For $A = 1 To $aMoveTo[0]
		FileCopy($sPortablePath & $aMoveTo[$A], $sLocalPath, 9)
		Sleep(20)
	Next

	RunWait($sFilePath, $sPortablePath)

	For $A = 1 To $aMoveTo[0]
		FileCopy($sLocalPath & $aMoveTo[$A], $sPortablePath, 9)
		Sleep(20)
	Next

	DirRemove(@AppDataDir & "\Youtube Downloader HD\", 1)
EndFunc   ;==>_Main

I've decided to downgrade my vote for this application, purely for the fact it's not Portable anymore.

The available settings are so basic, we if something could actually just delete the config file, that would work too. However, as future versions might get better, a wrapper program might be necessary.

Can you post something about how users can compile the AutoIT code? Even if its just "cut and paste into a AutoIT file" code bits plus a how-to-use-it might attract non-coders to AutoIT.

Why not use a user script for your browser?
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25105

Way easier than using an external program.

Edit: I see that the program can convert as well to xvid. I guess this makes it a little bit different. The name of the program needs to be changed ;)
is it stealth? ;)

I will be uploading these scripts to the website in the next couple of days and they will contain a compiled version too.
