Tried your e-mail support link and it wasn't working. So here I am. Why is it every time I open up my Firefox browser your webpage is loading as well? It gets to really, really be, a pain in the you know what, when software becomes pushy. And I don't see any options in your software or in my Firefox browser to stop your webpage from loading when I boot up. So for that reason I will be uninstalling this program.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.2.1-signed).Firefox REMEMBERS OPEN TABS! Please, close all tabs in Firefox and close the browser properly, without crashing it. As it is customary, we only show the home page once after installation. Please, verify this on your side, and then correct this unsubstantiated review accordingly. Thank you.

If you have the add-on "HTTPS Everywhere" installed and it is set to give you a secure connection to youtube, then Complete YouTube Saver WILL NOT WORK!, you will need to disable the secure connection to youtube via "HTTPS Everywhere" options, once done, then manually remove the 's' from 'https' in the videos address on youtube in the address bar of your browser (if you still have the video open!), then click on the arrow to load the page and check that you now have a http connection instead of https one!, then Complete YouTube Saver should work as the author intended it to.
If you do the above, then any future pages that you open on youtube should automatically load up in http instead of https.
Thank you for the very constructive report! We had not been aware of this issue. We will be looking into making CYS HTTPS-aware, as there is no reason it cannot work, and it will offer better privacy for browsing the YT site . Truth be told, watching YT videos themselves via encrypted connection is a complete waste of CPU power (server and client). As the download link (even https) uniquely identifies videos, there is no privacy gained there.

Better than "easy youtube video downloader".
+ Button is not imbedded and i don't have to scroll the page down. Because otherwise, youtube interface is too big for my screen.
+ Lets save 480p files into "Webm" which is framescrollable back in mpc! Yay! (....but will it be editable in editors? i don't now yet....)
+ Loads from channels, naming correctly.
+ A bit optionable, can set quick formats and catalogs.
- BAAAT (BUT)! Again unsupports non_latin letters, now in save-catalogs. They are written as crakozebra. Thus you can't save to a "favorite place". And after reentering options - reenter your standard catalog every time. Though it names and saves files to "last place" rightly.
- "Save all page" bluntly hangs firefox and all (when i have 150 tabs open). And shows a superflous process window insted of just adding a task to download manger.
- And aawwrgh their gosh! also the stream line of already loaded part is not going with this add_on. It loads, i think, at same speed, but you can't see what is already loaded.
- It doesn't load from embedded youtubes on other pages, nor from google.translated page. While some "FlashVideoDownloader" and "Flash and video download" do.
Thank you for your feedback. Some of the issues you are describing are unfamiliar to me and will need additional information. Please contact me at cytsaver@hotmail.com, thanks.
