Spider Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 From the FB group "Central Cavern" , who linked to this YouTube video. I was going to download it but although I was successful at this, I was not able to get a high-res version with any audio, hence it being a remote video at the moment.

Now you have to download an audio file and a video file separately and combine them yourself. I use mkvmerge for that. Spider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usual ways around it if needed, just more work. 22 hours ago, MtM said: thanks for that Andy, one day I will make time to watch it. The man the myth the legend! Most welcome.

jetsetdanny Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 Using https://y2mate.is/ allows you to download the film as an MP4 file in 1080p quality, with both audio and video. The downloaded file is 531 MB in size and has the following specs: First video stream: 985 kb/s, 1920*1080 (16:9) at 29.970 (30000/1001) FPS, AVC (High@L4) (CABAC / 3 Ref Frames) First audio stream: 128 kb/s, 44.1 kHz, 2 channels, AAC LC I'm not an expert on the various y2mate sites, I can only say they are different. For example, if you go to y2mate.com, you will probably be able to download a very similar file (judging by the indicated size), but if you go to y2mate.tools, the best download option is a 1080p file 468 MB in size, so probably slightly inferior to the one I described above. So if you use any of these sites, there's no need for separate audio and video downloads and muxing. Having said that, if by "mkvmerge" you are referring to https://mkvtoolnix.download/, JianYang, it is indeed an excellent tool IMPO (and completely free, too)! 👍 Spider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
