[trimechee]

Hello, we now that Mr Adeii has already offers us compiled special version of N_m3u8DL-RE for windows 7 os 32 bits, thanks ! but new versions has bee published to fix serious bugs and here i explai why this software is vital for windows 7 users : so me, and certainly many others, have weak laptops old windows 7 os 32 bits, streaming videos may lag buffer jerks, even preview with potplayer with cat catch extension lag sometimes because my internet connection can become very weak....

the solution is to download, some hls video require to merge audio and video and cat catch extension to a site: ffmpeg online for merge audio and video but my old cpu does not support some ffmpeg online instructions, cat catch recommends to use an external parser m3u8 mpd parser: the great N_m3u8DL-RE, N_m3u8DL-RE is compatible only with windows 10 and 11 but great Mr Adeii and also the developer of N_m3u8DL-RE the great Mr Nilaoda accepts following my request to make N_m3u8DL-RE compatible with my windows 7 os 32 bits! the little problem N_m3u8DL-RE is updated regularary but still in beta phase and I would like to use the last new version right now to be able to download videos and avoid network buffer lag but I can't find the beta executable version for my windows 7 os 32 bits, I'm not an expert so I don't know what to do and we hope the great Mr @adeii will compile the last new beta .exe version of N_m3u8DL-RE for windows 7 os 32 bits please, thank you!

Well, you are looking for arfact from that action.

NT6.0 means you need .net 6.0 installed.

Ohhh I didn't know! Thanks Mr Adeii for the explanation! All I know is Mr Niloda told me that if I don't encounter any problems, he will merge the Windows 7 commit into the main code:

nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-RE#494

nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-RE#425 (comment)

I looked for the executable version .exe but I didn't find it, maybe it will be available when the stable version is released, so I went to search in the "action" section to hope for an .exe but I didn't find it....

so .net 6.0 is compatible with windows 7 os 32 bits ?

[trimechee]

i try to find .net 6 to install it but i can't find it in official microsoft page :

i try to find .net 6 to install

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/sdk-6.0.428-windows-x86-installer

Great! Thanks! I remember Mr Adeii has generously offered and compiled me a special version of this program for my windows 7 os 32 bits:

https://github.com/adeii/Qt6Win7/releases/download/Test652/N_m3u8DL-RE-x86-Win7.7z

and I don't remember that you advised me to install .net 6 for this program to work, so Mr Adeii, can I use your version without . net6?
if so, i will use your version even if it is not the very latest beta version, my eee pc is weak and i would like to avoid weighing it down with .net 6 unless necessary, then i will wait for the stable version of N_m3u8DL and i will see if Mr Niloda recommends installing .net 6 then i will make a final decision whether or not i should install .net 6 if really N_m3u8DL becomes the only effective way to download encrypted hls videos, thanks!

New version need .NET 9 for compiling. I don't know does it is needed for work/downloading.
