Still problems using URL

 Hello CRS,

Attached is my latest from old thread:

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

hello crs,

i didn't have a defective wireless usb adapter after all since the replacement couldn't access the net. i had blocked all internet access.

attached is another log and screen captures of two pbs url downloads. the first is the one provided by me which succeeded.  the second attempted screen capture is my pbs failure.  it bombs almost immediately with the error message suggesting that i try the auto.  i tried the auto method and nothing happened.  previously,  i was able to download the failed pbs episode and many others using the url method.  i can not duplicate using the url method which know worked previously.  can't you provide some advice?

henry

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++  END OLD THREAD

I just tested again with a hard wire connection from my desktop to the router/modem.  Again, program suggests to use Auto or DVD method.  The tutorial doesn't show how to use the Auto.  I have shown my connection(s) are good downloading your suggestion, but I can't duplicate downloading using the URL method from one day to the next.  I assume you are assuming it's my problem which it may be, but I don't know what else to do.  I own multi copies of the support and I don't see buying any updates.

If you have the Preferred Quality set to High, then for video, the highest of all resolutions available is selected.

If you have the Preferred Quality set to Low, then for video, the lowest of all resolutions available is selected. 

If you have the Preferred Quality set to Medium, then for video, the median of the highest to lowest is selected.


Yes if you use the prompt method you would need to be there to select the resolution you want when the download begins. 


Queued detection's do not begin begin analysised and captured until there is a slot for them in the downloader (based on the max number of downloads).    To analysis earlier would mean the streams detected would not be valid by the time they enter the downloader.

Hello

As you stated in your reply is what I figured out (as I said above).  I would prefer to set the resolution on PBS for each video and then it waits in the queue.  The prompt method requires me to set here or/and set the max number of downloads HIGHer.  Any thoughts as to why the former method doesn't always work?


Again, thank you for you patience and help.


Henry

You have Settings > Internet Downloads > Preferred Download Quality set to High.  


Change it to Prompt to be prompted to select from the various qualities (if any) on offer.

Hello Again,

When I go to the PBS page without specifying a resolution I don't get the varies resolution options as you do as shown above.  Can you tell me what to do to specify and save my downloads at my specified resolution.  PBS seems to save my downloads disregarding my designation at the lowest resolution.  Am I being throated by PBS? If so, anything I can do? It's not AT&T as the monitored download is the maximum I am paying for.  Attached log.

Hello,

I am using Dragon browser (Chromium based ?) and the AUTO mode works most of the time. I haven't spend any time trying to get Firefox to use the AUTO mode.  Today, my specified download resolution (maximum) for videos is saved at a much lower resolution.  The attached log is an example.  Sometimes, after closing JMR and Dragon I am able to save videos at the designated resolution (specified on the PBS video). I was able to save all videos at the desired resolution, but not it's uncertain what resolution the video is saved at.

If AUTO is on when you start JMR then you have switched on Settings > Internet Downloads > Start automatic dectection on start.


Yes, US PBS can be captured in AUTO mode. I have already shared screenshots with you showing US PBS being captured - here is another





Your browser, which appears to be firefox, is not directing HTTPS traffic to Jaksta Media Recorder.


Try the following:


1. Reset all your settings to the defaults.  Settings > Reset button top right 


2.  Ensure firefox is using the system proxy:  https://www.jaksta.com/support/windows/kb/firefox-not-detecting-https-streams-in-auto-mode-like-youtube-6000074222, or use another browser that does.

OK, I checked DEBUG and DEBUG mode on START and then closed JMR.  Opened JMR and can't tell if DEBUG started before AUTO.


Repeated Youtube with same failure and didn't bother to do any more tests.


Log attached for this experiment.

As stated above, I can't start DEBUG before AUTO turns ON. So, I turned AUTO OFF, then  Turned DEBUG On and  AUTO ON.  I tried without success on AUTO your Youtube and my PBS.  I was able to download your Youtube using the URL method.


Attached is the log for my three exercises.


I looked at my settings and they seemed alright to me, but only failures.

When I start JMR, the AUTO sets itself (to ON) before I can start the Debug.  What to do?

JMR is not receiving HTTPS traffic.  


Please switch debug on before AUTO as requested so we can see what is happening on your machine.

Hello Again,

I tried your example and mine without success. Monitor HTTPS/SSL is always set to "ON".

For my log, I used your Youtube example and followed your instructions including the hard refresh. All without success.

I think you are getting very confused about how AUTO works.  


It detects media that is playing in your browser.    It has nothing to do with pasting urls into JMR (which uses the extraction engine not AUTO).


Switch on AUTO

Open your browser - go to a page hosting the video and play it (say https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ7MwfcjCa0)

JMR will detect it and capture it.


It looks like you have switched off Settings > Internet Downloads > Monitor HTTPS/SSL as no HTTPS traffic is being captured, although its hard to tell as you switched debug on after you switched AUTO on.


So again have a look at the tutorial and then follow these steps.


1. To ensure we are on the same page close JMR and your browser

2. Start JMR.

3. In JMR, Get Support > Switch on Debug Mode

4. In JMR, Home and switch on AUTO

5. Open your browser

6. Navigate your browser to the page hosting the video and play it.

7.  JMR will detect and capture it on the home tab.

8. If it doesnt then do a hard refresh on the page hosting the video to flush the cache for that page (video may be cached). To do this on your browser page hosting the video hold the Ctrl key down and press F5.

9.  If you still have issues collect the debug logs as you have previously been doing.
