First up it's worth mentioning that you need to adjust the default preferences to your preferred setting, otherwise you will probably get small resolution and low quality audio output. I played around with that for a little bit and ended up very happy with the result.
I did have a conversion error when I tried to use a custom resolution, I just set it to one of the preset sizes and it worked like a charm.
Easy to use - just take a few minutes to become familiar with the options and you'll be on your way.

Everytime it downloads a video... fine.
Converting it gives an error message at the end stating there was a problem. Waste of time. Deleted (again) from my system. Don't bother downloading. I'll wait for CosmoPod and in the meantime I use xVideoServiceThief.

Highly recommended

They browser-plug-in and system preference panel are not necessary but convenient. On my Lion 10.7 beta, it caused problems... but that's what betas do.

SpiceRack is currently the only haxie on my system. please read the FAQ’s here http://www.tastyapps.com/faq.html?product=videobox to learn more about Videobox and to make sure it will work well with your system.
Videobox can save files into 7 different formats, save them in an iTunes compatible format and save them into iTunes and then delete the intermediate file, with just two clicks, once you set the preferences to do that. it also can deinterlace and does 2 pass conversions, so the saved file’s quality is quite high. or it can just save the original file untouched, so you can convert it later if you choose to.
i can’t speak for the future, but the developer only asks for upgrade pricing (~$7.50US) about once every two years.

- In app AutoUpdate Error?
- DMG copy problem with symlink to Application folder?
Common TastyApps, a stable release please.
The above errors are simple to solve. Please, fix this asap. It's not professional releasing it this way.
I've paid for the app and I expect a program that's tested.
If you need a beta tester, leave a comment.
Don't get me wrong. The app, when it's working, is great! 5 Stars!
It's fast, very easy to use, Safari integration, many settings, etc.
With kind regards & thanks in advance.

One problem, however: the browser plugin works fine in Safari, but is nowhere to be seen (or added) in the latest version of Webkit.

However I can't get it to work. Whatever link I drag from Safari, the mini Browser opens up, claiming it cannot find a video (on youtube or vimeo). I shall locate the vid and press play. I do so and then nothing happens, nothing loads or downloads.....
Quite underwhelming so far, I am sorry.

However, I would also like an option to just download the vid as it is, without any conversion taking place.
Thanks!

Using "RAW" setting, downloads the video as it is streamed.

The minibrowser should be more interactive and assist the user in finding the streaming URL.

Otherwise it works flawlessly. Good work!
However, has the company died? They removed this app from their homepage, and multiple emails to them regarding FLVR go unanswered. Does anyone know how to remove this app?

Uninstalling FLVR: Locate "FLVR.bundle" with Spotlight, move it to the Trash and restart Safari.

I'll dump the bundle file manually, but don't expect newbies to know how to do the same thing.
