Hi Carlos,
I downloaded and installed Pontes Media Downloader and I like
it. It is created by people who seem to have preference for
creating blind friendly software and it does everything I want it
to as far as folders and conversion options.

Hi Carlos,
I love Free Make, but it also installs some other unwanted
stuff and the last few times I updated, unchecky wasn't able to
stop or uncheck the appropriate check boxes. I then had to use
Revo or some other software to remove the unwanted stuff. It's
a nice program despite that.

Well, there are other similar programs such as Pontes Media
Downloader
and of course Freemake Video Downloader.

Hi Group,
Well, I guess I'm just set in my ways. I like to have
total control. Following the advice of this group, I have
been able to adjust to the methodology described here and
find the program quite usable after all.

I don't think you should. After all, it's a portable
version.
if you did, you would have to have a setting to let
things run as they do now or not to do so and I don't
think the complication is worth the ability to change
the output folder. It's easy enough to open the folder
and move the file.

Yes. The launcher does this every time the program
starts for the sake of portability and because the
controls to configure the default folder are not very
accessible. I suppose I could work on this so the
folder configured by the user in the settings file would
be retained, but it just wasn't that important to me.

I just tried changing the output folder because I
got more curious. But the setting was replaced in the
file with the original setting and the file was
downloaded to the original location. My guess, and
obviously you would know, Carlos, is that at least
that setting is written to the file every time the
program is run.

I did tinker with the preset configuration file at
one point and was able to add a preset, but I could
not break down all the parameters to make it work
consistently.

I suppose you could change some of these settings
by altering the correct cfg file. It's a text file
that you can open in notepad. There is more than
one but you'll know the right one when you open it.
I don't know the effects of altering this file and
I'm not curious enough to experiment. if anyone
wants to experiment, make a backup of the original
cfg file before making any changes.

Hi,
I don’t think that the presets are any
different in the premium user version though I
can’t say for sure as no screen reader can find
the button one executes after entering said code
least not with any screen reader I possess. but
if I ever get it activated for sure I’ll surely
update.

The controls for changing the default
download folder are not accessible. Also,
remember that this version is supposed to be
portable so the launcher configures a
subdirectory in the root folder of the program
named
"Downloads"
as the default. The only bitrates and
formats which are available are the ones
listed in the
"Output Preset"
combo box, at least in the free version.
The bitrates and formats listed here should be
sufficient for most users.

I wanted to change the output or download
folder from that long path to my easier to
access folder. I also may want to change
formats and/or bit rates.

If there is an "OK" button, it is not

you are trying to change. There are no
settings really worth changing. Just
paste a YouTube URL into the main window,
choose an output format/preset, wait a
couple of seconds for the program to parse
the URL, and select the
"Download File"
button.

Where are the OK buttons for the
dialogues in settings? I just don't see
them with NVDA latest version.

Hi Carlos,
Using NVDA, Free Youtube to MP3
converter that you referenced is not
accessible. Nothing is read at all
with the review cursor and I cannot
find an OK button in tab order under
settings or any other place. I
assume you are using JAWS?

I
am using YouTube DLG and
although it does not have
as many options as other
downloaders, I am finding
that it is very nice. I
like the speed and quality
of the downloads. And the
interface is simple and
accessible.
I
can post a link if
you're interested.

Why
not use the program
Carlos made available
in a portable version,
FreeYouTubeToMP3Converter. Of course, assuming the latest version is
still accessible, you
could use the
nonportable version as
well. I'm not sure if
the link Carlos used
for the program is
still available. I'll
let others comment on
that.

Hi
Group,
I downloaded and installed
a program called Youtube
BLG--a program that
is supposed to convert
Youtube videos to
alternative forms such as
MP3.
It seems fairly
accessible, but when I
copy and paste the address
into
the address bar in the
program and click convert,
it just hangs.
Is anyone else on list
using this program and if
so, how does it work
for you?
