Avconv.exe - trouble with downloadhelper

[WazaKrash]

My friend installed avconv.exe on my computer without knowing it (sigh...) but in fact it's because download helper proposed it.

Is avconv.exe a big of help and useful?

Or is it risked?

I noticed that my computer overheated a little more than usually, thus if it's risked how can I uninstall avconv.exe?

Only positive point for the moment, is that download helper proposes more choices of conversion...

and it's strange, when I download something related to avconv, the final file is without his audio x/

avconv is a branch of ffmpeg - it's basicly a command line audio/video converter. No risks, no problems

ok, but did my processor wil not burn because of him?

'cause my computer seems overheated since it was installed

and when you download a ADP video with downloadhelper, did your video is without audio?

[TorBru]

Video conversion / transcoding requires alot of the CPU, thus it gets hot - this is absolutely normal. Why your download / conversion fails, I do not know. You might want to find a way to disable video conversion in downloadhelper if you do not want it.

Video conversion / transcoding requires alot of the CPU

yeah but before that time when avconv wasn't installed, when I tried a video conversion, my computer wasn't overheated little that. strange.

I recommend uninstalling downloadhelper because re-encoding is ABSOLUTELY not required! (you waste time and you get stupid watermark). Try Video Downloader professional plugin instead.

Just go to video downloadhelper settings and remove the converter - problem solved. You do not need to convert downloaded files.

ok I will do that so.
