Hi,
I'm using Mac 10.6.8 and Firefox 14.0.1 and having trouble installing ffmeg which can be recognised by Complete YouTube Saver.

I download the 64bit ffmeg zip file which (after decompression) installs a Unix Executable file called ffmpeg into the Downloads folder.
I doubleclick this file which prompts Terminal to open which then lists the steps it has taken - but nothing else happens.

Normally doubleclicking a .zip will expand into a folder - but not in this case.

After all this I still don't have an ffmpeg file on my computer where I can point Complete YouTube Saver to where it's located

Hope somebody can help as the reviews for CYS look very good.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.4.4.1-signed).

The Unix Executable file called ffmpeg is FFmpeg, you have it already extracted on your system, so you have completed the most difficult part. Now you just need to point CYS at your "Downloads folder", by clicking on the "Specify FFmpeg location..." button in the CYS Options window, and all conversion options will be enabled. Alternatively, you may move the FFmpeg executable to a different folder, in which case, again, you will need to point CYS at the folder containing the FFmpeg executable. Please, let us know of your progress. Thanks!
