by Firefox user 18467715, 8 months agoFirst, thank you for developing this. It used to work well enough, only getting stuck every once in a while. The update has completely broken the addon for me, nothing downloads like it used to, if at all. It looks like Dev is aware that the addon is now broken for a lot of people. Maybe consider rolling back?

posted 8 months agoThanks for taking the time to write this feedback. I'll consider reverting the engine (removing the mp4 transform). Many issues also relate to the new browser versions. Nevertheless, I'll look for a new solution.
Also, you can always install an older version from here: https://github.com/puemos/hls-downloader/releases

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13664839, 6 months agoSniffer detects nothing no matter what kind of video is playing. No HLS, nothing.
- Rated 5 out of 5by thanbo, 7 months agoIt managed to catch and download streaming videos where other apps that I've tried can't.
- Rated 2 out of 5by bridgerman, 7 months agoOn download tab there aren't word wrap, no option where to save, no cancel no clear list button! That made it unusable.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18456370, 8 months agoTS file downloading function is gone. Please, make it back..
- Rated 1 out of 5by User, 8 months agoSince update to 4.x the Select/Save buttons no longer fit within the UI. It is now impossible to download anything. Several bug reports about this have been posted to the GitHub Issues page in the last month (one report even helpfully contains a code snippet that fixes the problem) but the developer has been ignoring them.

The capacity has decreased significantly, but where did it go?
What should I do to free up space? - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18425327, 9 months agoPop up to save file isn't working after downloading a stream
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14139043, 9 months agoIt is a high-performance and convenient add-on, but it frequently freezes and is difficult to use.
I feel that the previous version worked more stably.Developer response

So before this new update, i was having no issues. Really Like the New UI. Just have 2 issues. 1. Whenever i try multiple conversions, there is a chance that it just stops working and i would need to restart the browser. 2. should have an option to use url as file name, it would really help when it comes to finding what was downloaded.
Other than that, this Extension is Top Teir and should be more up in the ratings but i feel it to be a little unstable sometimes
