Extension summary

Analyze keywords

This is a universal web video download tool, suitable for downloading standard videos such as HLS (HTTP Live Streaming), mp4, webm, etc. from web pages.

Features:

  1. Supports HLS video (streaming video indexed by m3u8 file), integrating all media fragments into a single MP4 file.
  2. Supports HLS live streaming.
  3. Supports videos or live streams with a 'blob' prefix in the player's src address. For such media, when the actual media address cannot be detected, the "recording mode" can be used to convert the buffered data into an MP4 file.
  4. Supports various static videos or audios that can be played on web pages, such as MP4, WEBM, etc.
  5. Supports streaming MP4 (HLS v7, may add support for "MPEG-DASH" in the future).
  6. Uses multi-thread downloading, which can significantly increase the download speed in good network conditions, very useful for downloading large files.
  7. Supports switching resolutions, available when the HLS video's m3u8 file provides multiple resolutions.
  8. Provides media preview, if multiple media are captured on a page, you can confirm your target through the preview.
  9. Provides a feature-rich download interface, where you can know the download speed, progress, and perform operations like switching download threads, switching resolutions, and modifying file names.
  10. All the work of this tool is done in your browser, without using any third-party servers to transmit or convert media data.
