FAQ

• Can this download 1080p videos without Premium?

Not anymore. This utility used to be able to do this, but a breaking API change caused this functionality to stop working.

• How do I download all videos matching a filter?

htv ALL -R -a <FILTER> will do this. Some examples:

Download all videos from a brand:

htv ALL -R -a -c "<BRAND>"

Download all videos matching a particular tag:

htv ALL -R -a -t "<TAG>"

• When I search for brand or tag XYZ, it shows empty search results

If you are using tag, company, or blacklist filtering for search, you will need to make sure that the filters have quotes around them and are spelled correctly.

Example: htv ALL -c majin label will show empty search results, but htv ALL -c "magin label" will show the correct results.
