hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

NewPipe will not download video or audio to any location when i try i get the error "The file can not be created"

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Does NewPipe have storage permissions granted?

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

I do not know Can you tell me have to give it the permissions

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Device settings>apps>newpipe>permissions

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

Yes it does but sadly it still dies not work

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

Is their any other app I can use to change the folder permissions. I have root permisionds if needed

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Strange. What version of NewPipe are you using and what device are you using? (Maker, model, android version)

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

is their any thing i can do to help this problem get solved

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

I am getting another error on another app that say the downloads folder is read only Is their any way t fix this

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Are you using the default downloads folder on the local storage?

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

Yes

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

Its at /storage/emulated/0/Download

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

The only app that had been able to edit the downloads dir is the stock file manager

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Maybe create a new folder outside of downloads and set NewPipe to download there.

hackin9-panda commented 4 years ago

Just tried that and it did not work

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Well I don't know what else to try then, sorry. It doesn't seem like a NewPipe issue since it effects other apps besides NewPipe.

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Of course it has storage permissions granted, that's automatically applied

No. You get a prompt asking for permission, and it was possible he had pressed no.

If other apps are having issues saving to the folder, it clearly isn't a NewPipe issue.

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

The issue you are describing here is not the same as what OP is describing.

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

You should be able to reopen, at least on the GitHub website.

The issue is not the same. This user isn't having access to download any videos at any resolution.

The video you are trying to download just can't be accessed by NewPipe in 480p. You should be able to download at 720p. If you can, that shows there is separate issue.

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

You should just see a button to reopen the issue. Someone will probably reopen it for you, since this is something that should probably get fixed.

Hello Everyone. I am neither a spokesperson nor a representative of SkyTube or NewPipe, however, I am here to inform you all that the reason why both apps are not working has nothing to do with the apps themselves. Unfortunately, YouTube/Google has updated their policies recently, along with their algorithms, and is now preventing such apps from scraping their videos. YouTube now requires that any app that scrapes its website for content, like SkyTube or NewPipe, they must now enter a reCAPTCHA to verify it's a human being that is scraping the content.

All respective developers of both apps are aware of the issue and are in the process of figuring out a workaround to Google's new algorithm. Please pay attention for any new updates and/or comments from the developers in the near future. On their behalf, we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you.

gkeegan commented 4 years ago

Yes we know that YouTube is changing their stuff. NewPipe works fine after updating.

Is this the reason why sharing/opening a yt video link newpipe and selecting "download" no longer works, while "show info" then downloading from the newpipe UI still works ?

Removing the three dot quick menu like to go back to history is not an improvement...
