November 12, 2011 12:03PM
FRD version 0.86 build 576
youtube.com plugin version 0.8.8

I would like to download all videos from YouTube channel which have more than 2800 films. But youtube plugin have limit to 1000 files. It would be grateful if this restriction has been omitted or expanded.

Sorry for my english.

It's a restriction in their API.

This URL:

http ://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/[user name]/uploads?orderby=published&start-index=[number]&max-results=[number]

The maximum value for max-results is 50 (more than that results in an error). If start-index + max-results is more than 1000, an error occurs too.

If you know of a better API (without the limit), please let us know.

Without "orderby" parameter "start-index + max-results" can be more than 1000

http ://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/[user name]/uploads?start-index=1000&max-results=50

And sequence of videos is correct.
