I sent a 3 minute video capture to JDW's staff showing this to be the case. JDW will, in a future attempt, download just fine. If he adds his GD account to JDOWNLOADER (following these steps): Īnd then tries to view that old file with the resourcekey URL.

So let's all assume mindless1 Google account is logged in his PC browser. If you never visited the old URL then you either need to know the new one or request access to the owner). (And yes, before that change the URLs were shorter, now they have this feature added to them, making the URL longer. It's like just looking into it gives you superpowers of not needing to know the * new URL * with resourcekey written to it. See Settings -> Account Manager JDownloader is downloading lower quality video streams instead. (Note: with Youtube the same thing happened, with unlisted videos).īut if mindless1 Google account visited the affected URL in the past, then he is already granted forever access to them. Add your Google Drive account to JDownloader and try again. So the owner needs to visit his account and generate new URLs. The thing with these links is that after Sep 2021 Google turned ALL of them into private. That's why he probably couldn't see the error. He refused to accept this perhaps because he visited the links before, in his browser.

I am already in touch with JDW's admin and have explained to him (multiple times) this is only affecting 2018 or older links which use resourcekey URLs.
