Endless Paradigm

I present to you my latest project.

What is it?
It is a combined C# application and Firefox browser extension that allows you to click once and download youtube files. It then converts them to mp3 format and does it's best to get the artist and album info and load them into the id3 tags. I have tried to test it quite well, but as always, there may have been something I missed. I will release it here keep in mind it's in an early beta type stage. Any and all feedback as well as product experiences are appreciated, and as always, donations are always appreciated.

How to Install
1. Download the C# application and place it in whatever directory you want it to run in.
2. Run the application, it will extract and register itself.
3. Configure the application
4. Install the .XPI firefox extension and install it

How to use
Find a youtube page, a song or any video will actually work. Then you will see the music note button, it will say download to mp3. You should click that and firefox will probably come up with some dialog questioning you about the extension and the application associated with the SNY2MP3 protocol. My app should show up in the list and you should select it and tell firefox to use that protocol from now on. If the application isn't open, it should open check for updates etc and then download the video. It will then use it's included FFmpeg to convert the video.

Well... That's probably not all, but I can't explain it very well. If you want to test it please do. I think it is quite cool, but I built it myself so I am naturally biased. Also if you find it works properly and want songs to be automatically added to your itunes library I'd set the output directory to the itunes "automatically add to library folder"

C# App

Firefox Extension
Opera Extension

Final Info
Please report all bugs/feedback (suggested features are welcome)
I am not liable (just covering my own donkey in case something goes wrong)
It uses FFmpeg (trying to follow their license so I don't get mocked, sued, etc)

I think that's it Oo

If anyone actually downloaded this already, I recommend re-downloading it. I am an idiot and forgot to enable the self update module before the release.

....wat?

I can't believe it's still alive. I can only remember the pain using this program to dl music on 5kb internet dial-up poo poo...ugh.

gj again

I'm looking into adding more extensions to more browsers, or if anyone else wants to help make an extension they should be able to do it easily.

I'm probably more looking into IE and chrome extensions first though

Actually... opera looks like I might just be able to gut my FF extension. I might look into this first since you're interested and I don't know anyone who is currently interested in an IE/chrome extension

beats having to manually convert flv's to mp3 :p

slushman

does it work?

(i don't trust it anyways I'll stick my trusted add-ons)
