Day 1-2: Development of Youtube File Hack Tool 1.1

noreply@blogger.com (LawrenceAlbert) — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 09:23:45 -0500

Due to the users acknowledgment and suggestions. I decided to continue developing the next version of Youtube File Hack For Internet Explorer's Right-Click Menu.

Day 2

Like in Windows Vista, You cannot please everybody. So, I decided to put a checkbox if you don't like the program to ask again and again. Also, I don't like adding another Context Menu.

Right-Click > Download. CTRL+V to Paste the Filename. That's it.

I spent the whole day reading, watching youtube (experiencing how to use the system itself), Thinking deep and scanning all my references including Youtube API. I always do this when I am creating a program. I always want to see all the possibilities that may arrived and just maybe, something magical pops-up in my head. Even if the program is very very simple.

"Whatever you findeth doing, Always do your might"

Day 1

Recently, I just finished the code on how to automatically know if the youtube video has a High-Quality (HQ) format that is allowed to view by YouTube.com.

The next version is intelligent enough to know that feature and It will ask you if you'd like to Download it as MP4 format or not.

The logic is like this...

"Do you have an HQ video my friend (Youtube.com)? mmm... let me think."

(Youtube) "Yes I have."

"Do you want to download it or not?"

Here's the College Official Green Band Trailer, Download the youtube movie trailer in HQ to your hardisk now!

How about the New Batman movie Trailer: Dark Night?

The Main Differences

1. Size

2. Quality

There's a difference in the quality but not so much. If some videos are encoded properly, you can see a large difference... I will say this is a large step for Youtube.com in making HQ streaming videos available for everyone.

How about HD? I can't have that. That's a huge bandwidth that maybe someday will become cheap...

Try and Download

Here's the Pre-Release of the Next version of YOUTUBE FILE HACK:

Day 1 Pre-Release version: Download now

The file is 91 KB Zip File, 90.7kb to be exact... and After Opening the file for the first time. Please Read this Guides, Tips and Tricks.

Thanks to Mr. Ron of Freewarefiles.com! Again, The first downloading website that uploaded my software!

Summary:

1. The current version adds a Context Menu To Internet Explorer (IE)and makes it possible to download the youtube video easily. Firefox will be supported on the next version.

2. Intelligent Enough to know the youtube link and file name: You don't need to know the format of the link and go to a website to download the video. Also, it will automatically copy the title to clipboard as it's filename. So, when it asks for a filename just press CTRL+V.

3. Optimize by design: The program doesn't stick anything that makes your computer unstable and it doesn't run on a background.

4. Mostly, The most important thing for all the Geeks, there's a link that will teach everybody on how to get the youtube link manually.

5. The main problem that I encountered in several applications, when the program was corrupted due to unknown reasons. It's difficult for a casual user to clean the context menu. In this program there's an option to remove the Right-Click (Context Menu) option in Internet Explorer.

The Design:

By default, the 19.5kb program called YTH-light gets the youtube link and download the video. It is a command line application that was optimize by design, meaning as simple as possible:

1. Get the youtube link

2. Launch the Download Command and terminate the application

It uses any web browser as a downloader (Internet Explorer, Firefox or any) which is more stable. Also, it can be automatically downloaded through any File downloader or Download Accelerator for faster download.

If you want the GUI application, there's an option to choose. So, there are plenty of ways to download the video file.

Tested on Windows Vista and XP

In Windows XP, If it doesn't work. Please install .Net.

ENJOY!

This is a cool security feature of Protected Mode in Internet Explorer that ask (alert message) and verify if you will allow a program to run the program from IE. So, any bad guys out there cannot automatically run a program from just opening a malicious website. Great!!!

"This program does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher. This program will open outside of Protected mode, putting your computer at risk. You should only run programs from publishers you trust."

Notes:

Before allowing the program to run, make sure that the program is running from a legitimate website. Example: YOUTUBE.COM
Click to check the option "Do not show me the warning for this program again" if you already verified the program and you don't want to ask you again.
Even Notepad.exe as a default View Source Editor will have this message appear for security reasons.
If you allow the program, it will silently elevate the program to run in a Low Rights Policy

How to Reset or Restore IE to ask you again

From Internet Explorer, Go to Tools Menu > Internet Options > Advanced Tab > Reset Button

To make sure, afterwards reboot your computer.

If this doesn't work even if you reboot your computer already.

[Vista/XP-IE] How to Show the File Download Window after "Always ask before opening this type of file" was Unchecked

noreply@blogger.com (LawrenceAlbert) — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 21:40:33 -0500

If Internet Explorer (IE7 or maybe IE8) Automatically Downloads the File Without Asking you where to save it, How to Re-Enable, Restore or Reset it to default is a problem especially in downloading Office Document Files (.doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx) and Zip files .zip, .Rar, .7z and other formats.

CAUSE: While Downloading a File, the "File Download" dialog box was clicked to clear the "Always ask before opening this type of file" checkbox.

You can do it Manually or just Download WinBubble 1.74 (The version will be release soon), Go to IE Tab and It will Fix easily...

Registry HACK: Manually Resetting the option

1. Go to the path below and Remove any related values that is associated with the file.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\AttachmentExecute\{0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}

For Example in my situation, Zip files and other archives are associated with IZarc. So just delete the Izarc value, "IZArcZip". The same procedure, if you are using Winzip, 7-zip and other programs.

Probably many of us didn't noticed when the Start Menu Hibernation Mode is missing. Most of the users tells the latest thing that they do which is not related to the cause of the problem. Anyway, Don't worry guys... It's very easy to re-enable. Either Use a command or my software WinBubble.

"My hibernate button disappeared from the start menu. The only options are: switch user, log off, lock, restart, sleep and shutdown."

CAUSE

The hibernate button will disappear in Windows Vista after running the disk cleanup tool.

SOLUTION

To solve this problem: Go to Start Menu Search > type cmd > CTRL+SHIFT and press Enter, to run as Administrator.

Lastly, Type and Run the Command below:

powercfg -h on

NOTE: The Hibernation needs hard disk space or else, you'll get this error message:

Hibernation failed with the following error: There is not enough space on the disk.

The following items are preventing hibernation on this system.
The system could not create the hibernation file. The specific error code is 0xc000007f.

Most of us use the tool if running out of disk space especially in Drive C: Here are some Related articles to Save or Free-up more Disk space in Windows Vista:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Quick Solution: Disable the Control Panel

Last night I got this problem on both leading browsers - IE7 and Firefox. Both of them seem locked, it doesn't refresh and load the recent post of my blog.

1. Firefox: One-two days ago content is displayed

2. Internet Explorer doesn't display the latest blog post

SOLUTION: Clearing the Temporary Internet Files

In Internet Explorer, Go to Tools > Internet Options > Browsing History Delete Button > Temporary Internet Files Delete files Button

This will delete all the copies of webpages, images and other media that are saved for faster loading and viewing of web pages.

For Firefox, Go to Tools > Clear Private Data or just press CTRL+SHIFT and DEL button to open the window. Check "Offline Website Data" and press the "Clear Private Data Now" Button

That's it!

This solves my problem in posting new blog entries and viewing the recent webpages.
