Vimeo Download Issues with 6.1.0.134

[achugh]

Dear Support,

It seems Vimeo has recently updated their playlist.json file where the URLs now have pathsig as a querystring parameter. I believe this is breaking the download of Viemo videos.

The videos I am trying to download are from a private embedded page. VSO detects them in the radar mode but it is not able to download them.

Is the team aware about this change breaking things and is someone going to work on fixing this issue?

Best Regards,
achugh

Hello,

Thank you for the info.

I have opened an official bug report with VSO:

Let’s see what they say !

Hi,

Version 135 fixed some Facebook issues for me, I also use Firefox...
There was also an Engine Update, wonder if those 2 updates would also fix your Vimeo issues...

Hi Cougar_II

Thank you for helping with creation of the ticket. I responded to the ticket that got opened using the Bug Reporting via the app.

When I opened the app just now, it downloaded some update. This is what's shown after the update.

Program version: 6.1.0.134
Engine Version: 2024.12.06

I believe 135 version is a beta version hence it did not get downloaded. These Vimeo videos are private and embedded. I can login to see and view them. Because they are private VSO is not able to download them. This is a defect in VSO because Vimeo is looking for some specific Origin and Referrer HTTP headers that VSO should be able to capture using its built-in proxy and use them but it does not and hence gets into an error. I do not believe 135 fixes this issue.

I was not using Firefox because RADAR was detecting the media so I don't believe this 135 update fixes anything for me yet.

Hello, added your comments to the bug report. Let’s see what Jacques says, and/or when the bug will get resolved

Thank you for updating the Bug report.

There was a time in VSO v5.x where one could manually specify the HTTP headers via the INFO window that opens. It will be great if this ability is added again so that I could send the headers I know will work when VSO is not able to figure them out on its own like what is happening right now.

Hello,

Good news, comment from Wesson on the bug site …

Adding specific headers to request will be available soon.

[achugh]

Thank you for this update.

Today my version was updated to 6.1.0.135 with engine version of 2024.12.06. Is the custom header in this version? If yes, how to set them up?

I tried to download the video from this temporary public page at https://f64elite.com/public-live/ and all I got was bunch of errors. The media is detected but the yt downloader is not able to download this media. This temporary public page will disappear after 26-Dec-2024 so please take a look at it before it disappears to understand this defect.

When I turn on RADAR mode, the media is detected and VSO makes some assumption to download the file and fails. I have not started playing this media so the headers VSO is assuming are not correct.

Next I start playing this media and I was hoping VSO will now see correct headers via its proxy but it still does not understand and sends the wrong headers and fails to download.

Can you some at least investigate this issue before this page is locked even if the fix comes later? Thank you.

For some unknown reason my VSO Downloader is still showing upgraded to version 6.1.0.139
Engine version - 2025.02.19

When starting VSO Downloader -
on the bar below there is showing the text - check for update skipped due to settings


When checking the button left below - Check Update -
the response is - You are up to date

Did you download the latest installer ?

https://download.vso-software.fr/archiv ... .0.140.exe

Then install from the .exe and NOT upgrade (Not sure why it didn't work)
