Yes I can confirm, IDM doesn't DL audio. I had to DL audio separately and mux them together to get the final video.

I thought I was the only one. Downloaded a lot of lectures yesterday and when started watching found out that there is audio in none of them.
just try jdownloader for once.
^^i don't agree.IDM is not free & most people(in India) run *ahem* version which obviously means it is useless as soon as youtube/streaming sites change their functionality requiring need for a newer version of IDM which in turn requires a newer *ahem* way to install.i have been using jdownloader for years & not once has it failed me on youtube.it can also do so much more with other sites too.as far as video streaming sites are concerned(& filehosting sites) no download manager comes even close to it.

this plugin has DL plus many other useful features for ex: videos will load even when paused just like old YT

JDownloader?
okay i'll give it a try. if its really as good as you say it is, i'll remove IDM and use it full time.
and yeah, those updates and out of date plugins are a PITA.
just one thing though.it needs java runtime & installer is online so if java is not installed its online installer try to download & install it too which in some cases may give error as online java install is a bit problematic compared to offline install.
yups. sometimes the downloaded videos do not have any sound

i have come across many posts which complaint on this... but not even once i have faced this
I just cant understand the situation, maybe one is using and outdated version which may be causing a problem. apart ~ IDM have never ever failed to capture a smallest of the link available. even it displays the pop-up (of downlioad the link) on finding a error sound in gmail. irrespective of chrome/opera/firefox.
^And despite of closing that error sound in gmail, which pops up every time, IDM doesn't gives the option of not cathing it which is should give after continuos rejections.

Keepvid was fixed apparently, I redownloaded yesterday and everything worked fine.
Try 4k downloader, it's working absolutely fine. And much faster than Keepvid and the likes.

I'm fine with keepvid, I use IDM to do the actual downloading. I don't use IDM to grab the videos because it has often happened that the starting of the video would be missing.

IDM downloads the whole video.
except the advert videos at the beginning. are you talking about that?
