Use Cases

I would like to request a possible feature. Since patreon begin to store the video inside the platform is not possible to download the videos. I am patreon for many producers and I wish to download some video what is no longer possible.
I would like to request the patreon video download option for grayjay.

Without an example it's hard to know for sure however I just pushed a fix for downloading Patreon videos where Grayjay would crash. Hopefully that fixes your issue.

What I mean is that patreon used to host the videos on YouTube, this is no longer the case and since they change the hosting is no longer possible to download new patreon videos

There have been Patreon videos for a long time. My understanding is that Grayjay supports them. It works for me. However there has been a bug in Grayjay that results in a crash when downloading Patreon videos (not YouTube videos linked from Patreon posts). The linked merge request will fix that crash. Are you experiencing something different?

Good evening.
I have tried it really does not work

Yes that looks exactly like the issue my fix will resolve. The plan is to include it in the next release of Grayjay. It's not an issue with the Patreon source so it will need to wait until the next Grayjay release.
