Strange audio problem with youtube and RealPlayer downloader
in [Mac Applications]

From: Paul Fuchs on 29 Mar 2010 00:00 Running SL 10.6.2 on a MacBook with Safari 4.0.4 I am trying to save a series of 18 segments in .flv and burn them for a friend with a dial-up connection. On segment one, I listened to it and the sound was fine all the way through. Then I downloaded the file with RP Downloader. Then played it back with QT v 10.0. The sound cut out from 2:48 - 5:39 and then started up again and was normal. I tried playying it back with MPEG Streamclip and had the same deal. Went back to youtube and did it again with the same results. Sound normal all the way through on the stream, then lost at exactually the same place on the playback. The video was fine throughout. The clip is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxECb7zcQhQ Does anyone know what is going on and if there is a work around?

Have you tried some of the other download tools mentioned over in the "Download Youtube" thread? -- Paul Sture

I downloaded both the MP4 and the flv version. The MP4 version plays fine but the flv version loses the sound at about 2:40. -- Hans Rijnbout Utrecht, Netherlands

How did you save it to your HD? -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell

Well, I am not savvy enough to use command line interfaces, and Abby seems to be only written for windows. Can someone suggest a better alternative to RP Downloader for Snow Leopard with a graphic interface. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell |
