how to download on local server about youtube-downloader HOT 11 CLOSED

Well, the shortest path would be to run a web client on your server (lynx or similar command line browser).

please explain where to edit code if possible please provide code.

first, you have to find link and title of video using this script
second, download it to your server using a simple function.

there is some example codes for downloading a file using php:
file_put_contents($filename,file_get_contents($url)); //uses a lot of memory for download big files,
or...
exec("wget $url -O $filename");//can't run on shared hosting
or...
file_put_contents($filename, fopen($url, 'r'));//Since PHP 5.1.0, stream copy
or you can make your function to do this using curl and fopen

Downloading to the server is no more possible. All I get is 403 access forbidden response. I think google changed some things meanwhile, two weeks ago it worked. Any ideas how to bypass this problem?

It's still working fine on me. The only problem I have is I can't download the video with a Cipher signature on it. >.<

Can you list your server packages, and which method are you using for downloading it on server? Cipher signature videos are usually vevo videos, they are located on another google server. Which one, I don't know.

@MaeJhem @TheBumpaster if you want to download videos (even cypher protected) on your server, and you have a dedicated server, this repository would be more appropriate : https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl

it is very easy to use and embed it in a php script with exec($yourCommand)
