Thank You!

OK.
I think the lack of compatibility is given by the fact that Windows does not use the permissions of files as unix ...

Hi Osman,

Permission is one reason. But thats not really the major issue. The major issue is the required time for testing and reviewing the entire plugin code for making it compatible with windows.

Thank You!

is the first time that I am working with python, and I got it that the videos on youtube load usually the user, but even so without the cache

I tried using CygWin, everything works, but does not download.

videocache.log:
http://pastebin.com/m6714ea4a

When the log says it has finished downloading, it says "We're sorry ...", and not find the file anywhere on the computer.

EDIT:
Had a wait until the file appears in the apache, but still the message "We're sorry ..." still showing.

EDIT2: WORK!
It was only a setting in videocache.conf

Osmano,

Thats wonderful news man!!! It would be great if you can take some time to write a howto on setting up videocache on windows with cygwin?

Thank you for your efforts :)

It works, but the performance is terrible.

Thats obvious as you are trying to run videocache on a system which is not thoroughly supported :)

Yes, but the problem is not the script itself, but the interpreter is slow. I was looking at another script in PHP, but PHP spends only 15MB of RAM to run the script, and this with another redirector is very bad.

I try to migrate my server in the next few days and see what happens.
