Works good

Absolutely indispensable! This extension is one of the first things I add to every browser I use. It makes downloading videos a breeze which really comes in handy for offline viewing.

The developer is amazing and lightning fast with updates.

Great! But could you add e.g. Firefox integration, so that it can use FF VPN directly?

It's great. It would be even better if the icon was the same as the main app ;-)

Super helpful – thank you so much!!

I've tried Video DownloadHelper as a YouTube-DL alternative to download a paid video I had rented on Vimeo. The extension offers to downloaded the 1920 x 1080 pixels DASH stream, and downloads it fast, but then it launches a transcoding (called an aggregation), even though I've disabled "Force H264 tuning in aggregation", which would have taken hours. It turns out the free version adds a watermark, which requires post-processing and transcoding. My understanding is that you have to pay €18.50 for a premium license to get fast downloads without transcoding.

So I have turned to Downie 4 by Permute's developer Charlie Monroe, which is also paid at €18.99, but has the advantage of being up front about it. Alternatively it is included in the Setapp subscription service. It has a cleaner interface and it works with Chrome and Firefox as well as Safari and Opera.
