Because you’ve installed the Services (:downmediaservices in Alfred).

What program?

Enabling it addressed that issue thank you!

Sorry I used the word Program but I meant workflow. Thanks for your help!

I have a similar kind of problem with using the da command. It keeps saving it as OPUS.

Alfred ver: 4.09

Workflow ver: 20.2

Youtube-dl ver: 2020.05.03 (installed via brew)

@ionstorm Thank you for the good bug report. Fixed in the latest version, just released.

wardepauw · June 12, 2020

Hi, I'm really struggling to get it work. I'm completely new to Alfred and Workflows.

OS ver: 10.15.5

Alfred ver: 4.09

Workflow ver: 20.2

I downloaded the latest version of your workflow but when i enter the keyword "dv" with a youtube tab open and running nothing happens. Could you tell me what i'm missing? Thank you very much in advance!

Hi @wardepauw, welcome to the forum.

In which browser?

BTW, it’s basically impossible to help you with a description like “nothing happens”. If you’re having a problem with a workflow, please always check Alfred’s debugger and post what you see in there (making sure to remove any personal info like email addresses or passwords, first).

wardepauw · June 12, 2020

Hi @deanishe thanks for your quick reply! i'm sorry. I'm using Opera browser, but i also tried the workflow in Safari. I didn't give more info because i simply downloaded the workflow and started testing it. I don't know if i have to add something to the script or install additional software. Like I said, I'm really a newbie.

No, you don't.

What does Alfred's debugger say when you run the workflow?

wardepauw · June 12, 2020

When i run the debugger, i get the following message:

[23:36:22.073] Logging Started...

wardepauw · June 12, 2020

@deanishe The logging doesn't start. It's been 20 minutes and it still only says "logging started

deanishe · June 12, 2020

Pretty sure that just means the workflow didn't log anything. Try changing the "Show" option from "Interesting information" to "All information".

wardepauw · June 12, 2020

The logging started at last:

It’s failing to download youtube-dl, it seems. Might be something in your connection.

Can you access this URL in the browser? Does it download anything? https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl

wardepauw · June 12, 2020

Yes the download worked

vitor · June 13, 2020

vitor · June 13, 2020

Update.

Added support for more browsers.

To update, download the latest version (same URL) or wait a few days and it’ll prompt you to on next usage, since it uses OneUpdater.

wardepauw · June 13, 2020

@vitor

This is the output I get from the command:

-bash: /Users/wardepauw/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Workflow Data/com.vitorgalvao.alfred._sharedresources/bin/youtube-dl: No such file or directory

Wars-Mac-mini-2:~ wardepauw$

OS ver: 10.15.5

Alfred ver: 4.09

Workflow ver: 20.2

I don't know what's going wrong.

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

deanishe · June 13, 2020

@wardepauw If you have Homebrew, you can install youtube-dl with brew install youtube-dl. If not, why don’t you try downloading youtube-dl from the URL Vítor posted earlier, and manually putting it where the workflow is looking for it?

One possible cause of the issue might be a firewall. Do you have Little Snitch or similar installed that's preventing the workflow from contacting the Internet?

wardepauw · June 13, 2020

Downloading Homebrew and installing the Youtube DL resolved the issue. Thank you very much for your help! Have a great day!

Daniele · June 29, 2020

Simply this workflow is incredible!

Is there a way to split a single audio into tracks? Like a complete album to songs.

Thank you

Nope. It’s been a feature request on youtube-dl (which the Workflow uses) since 2015.

Hopefully useful information: the download may be failing because of an expired SSL certificate on https://yt-dl.org

The workflow is failing for me with the same error as above (failing to download youtube-dl). Have just tried to download it using the instructions in the GitHub readme at https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl#installation , and curl tells me that the ssl certificate for https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl has expired.

For politeness sake:

DV v 20.8

Alfred 4.1.1 [1172]

macOS 10.15.1 (19B77a) (some beta because my other half passed on this machine to me, and it's still enrolled in the beta thing, arg, I need to sort that)

Failing on https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p056qcjq

(don't currently have brew installed, that's my next troubleshooting step, this isn't yet a request for help!)
