View Full Version : Replay Media Catcher doesn't catch 8 hour videos on YouTube in 720p ???

I have been able to download this 8 hour video in 360p video quality, as it automatically defaults to that on a "single segment download".
This video is available on YouTube in 720p HD quality.
However, Replay Media Catcher 5 will only download the 360p video quality version.

I can download pretty much every other video on Youtube in 720p (or 1080p), if available, if it's a video that is less than a couple hours long, etc.
I'm wondering if Replay Media Catcher just can't download a video this long on YouTube (8 hours) in 720p quality, and has to resort to the default 360p version, as a "single segment download".

Here is the link (pasted below), and the Process Log (when Replay Media Catcher 5 is attempting to catch the stream and download it).
I do have my "Settings" on Replay Media Catcher set to a "Page" download method for YouTube videos, "high" quality download for the quality setting, and an "mp4" file for the download format for catching and downloading YouTube videos.
Anyone else can feel free to give this a test to see if Replay Media Catcher is indeed limited to non-large length videos in high quality.
Or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Thanks.

However, Replay Media Catcher 5 downloads this version in 720p, as it's only 7 minutes long:

Hi Buster

That's a HUGE file - I would not want to record that one to begin with!
