About this extension
Linux Download Manager (LDM) is a Firefox extension that works together
with the LDM desktop application to give you a fast, organized, and
powerful download experience on Linux.

🔽 AUTOMATIC DOWNLOAD INTERCEPTION
Any file you click to download is silently intercepted and sent to the
LDM desktop app — no "cancelled" flash, no Firefox download panel.
Files are automatically sorted into folders: Videos, Music, Documents,
Compressed, Programs, and Others.

🎬 VIDEO CAPTURE
Use the popup buttons to unlock right-click protection on streaming
sites and capture video URLs directly to LDM. Works on most streaming
platforms.

▶ YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER
One click to send any YouTube video to LDM's built-in YouTube
downloader. Choose your quality (Best, 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p) and
format. Audio-only downloads supported too.

🔘 TOGGLE ON/OFF
Easily disable interception from the popup when you want Firefox to
handle downloads normally. Context menu and video capture still work
when toggled off.

📂 RIGHT-CLICK CONTEXT MENU
Right-click any download link to send it directly to LDM, bypassing
all automatic detection.

REQUIREMENTS:
This extension requires the LDM desktop application to be running on
your Linux machine. Download and install LDM from:
https://github.com/matewinslet/linux-downloader
