The download works great for me. Are you in a non-US country that could possibly explain the issue?
I really don't get your point. I live in Chile. I can play Youtube videos without problems inside MC or in Chrome or any browser.
Supposedly Youtube videos aren't downloadable, chrome extensions are forbidden for this purpose, then user needs an external program.
I normally use such programs (MOVIER works fine for me). This programs are used also in the states.
Browser embedded in MC (or its download function) have this restriction? To not allow download of such videos for non-US people, ie similar restriction of Chrome or Google, which is for all people.
Then answer is shorter: no download for non-US, then, I'll have to use a proxy. Then answer by JimH doesn't apply either.
I, sincerely feel that there is a problem in my MC 21 right now (also in previous MC versions).
I recall downloading youtube videos pre-HTML5, since then all changed,
Or maybe its something related with protected videos, as I read in the forum.
I was needing an explanation from your side... no big problem for me anyway.
Thanks for you reply
