Thanks for the report. Both redgifs.com templates updated to support new website API:

redgifs.com - category and search template

redgifs.com - user uploads template

Now you can apply filters on the website and use the resulting URL to save filtered results.

Hello Maxim,

Has anything changed regarding Reddit -> Redgifs content?

I'm getting some "Bad request signature." alerts for content, namely mp4 vids.

Thank you,

Give me some URLs for the tests please. And yes, something has changed :( RedGifs.com owners are trying to protect their content harder and harder.

I need the URLs of pages where the RedGifs links are shown.

Sorry, didn't understand.

Example of a subreddit with linked Redgifs content:

Code: Select all

NSFW:

Gosh :( They do not even allow "mobile" and "silent" versions of video. I'll try to find a solution, but the situation doesn't look too good. In the redgifs.com templates I use information from the built-in browser to get valid video URLs. But such trick cannot be done when a redgifs video is linked from a third-party website... At least in the current version of the program.

OK, I updated both sub-reddit and user templates for reddit.com. Now they download videos not from redgifs.com, but from reddit.com video preview (which may lead to duplicates for videos from other sources). Video files in the reddit.com preview come without a sound. Audio files are available as separate downloads and currently no included in the templates. So, if you need to download from redgifs.com - better download directly from redgifs.com with the corresponding templates. And here are the updated reddit.com templates:

reddit.com - subreddit downloader

reddit.com - user posts downloader
