## Description

The Reddit Video Url Chrome extension simplifies the process of obtaining direct video URLs from Reddit posts. Instead of manually parsing complex JSON to find video links hosted on Reddit's servers, this handy tool fetches the video URL automatically and populates it in an input box for easy copying.

Supporting both Old Reddit and New Reddit interfaces, this extension streamlines access to embedded Reddit videos. Please note that audio streams aren't supported, as Reddit separates video and audio into two streams, and the extension only retrieves the video URL. Perfect for users looking to quickly access Reddit videos without the hassle.

## Review summary

Users appreciate the addon for its ease of use and effectiveness on old Reddit layouts, especially for downloading videos quickly. However, multiple reviews mention it fails to function on the new Reddit interface, requiring users to use the old Reddit site. Additionally, a common downside is that the videos lack audio tracks, and some report minor layout issues such as shrinking of comment and search boxes. Overall, it remains useful but limited by compatibility and functionality constraints.

### Pros

- Easy to use and immediately shows the video URL under the video for downloading.
- Works well with old.reddit.com, especially when combined with a Reddit old layout addon.
- Unobtrusive design that doesn't interfere much with the browsing experience.
- The code appears legit and trustworthy.

### Cons

- Does not work with the new Reddit interface; users must switch to old Reddit for functionality.
- No audio is available in the videos downloaded through the addon.
- Some users report that the addon does not show the URL or work at all in their Firefox version.
- The addon shrinks comment and search boxes, affecting webpage layout.
