Related to a bug in Firefox. Try turning off enhanced privacy.

But my privacy is set to standard and there wasn't this problem before

Been experiencing the same issue for some time, kept hoping that a new update would eventually fix it. Had to roll back to an older working version in the meantime. For me, I hit the save button and FastStream goes through the motions and indicates it has saved the file, but it does not trigger the download within Firefox downloader. This behavior is not site specific.

1.3.29 - Save not working 1.3.28.1 - Save not working 1.3.28 - Save not working 1.3.27.2 - Save not working 1.3.27.1 - Save not working 1.3.27 - Save not working 1.3.26 - Save is working

Do you have enhanced privacy protection enabled? Do you use Firefox Multi-Account Containers? Since 1.3.27, FastStream has begun using Firefox's downloads API to get around their restrictions in sandboxed Iframes. See #235

RNavarro3000 commented 1 month ago

I do not use Firefox Multi-Account Containers. "Enhanced Tracking Protection" is set to Standard. I manually disabled all protections for my specific test sites (clicked Shield for each site and clicked slider to off) and FastStream 1.3.29 is still not saving.

RNavarro3000 commented 1 month ago

As a test (my main FF profile is years old), I also just installed a fresh instance of latest Firefox on a Win10 VM, so no baggage in profile or other addons to conflict. All Firefox settings are default and the only addon is FastStream. I disabled protections manually and FastStream 1.3.29 is not saving.

Andrews54757 commented 1 month ago

Okay, so I figured it out. My build script wasn't appending the right permissions to the dist version of FastStream. I didn't catch it because I test with the development build. It has since been fixed

Andrews54757 commented 1 month ago

Fixed in V1.3.29.1 (firefox store only release)

V1.3.29.1

The new version seems also fixed https://github.com/Andrews54757/FastStream/issues/195 (no thorough testing but a couple of links in FB and IG worked OK) Thanks a lot!
