This video downloader was among the best with flawless downloading for non-streaming videos. But at least a week ago, every download attempt has been blocked into a "queued" status of nothing downloaded. Not sure if I'm throttled by this app when other apps allow downloading of the same videos.

Further, it is clunky for the local installation of the companion app to download streaming videos when other video downloading apps can download those streaming videos without any local installation.

Guess I will have to switch over to alternatives permanently.

P.S. Now I've been reading of the latest update that adds a QR code onto the downloaded video unless it's a paid version. No, ma'am. Found a very good alternative that I can download HLS streaming videos without any additional installation of app to my computer's local hard drive. Best of all, the downloading of the streaming videos doesn't take half the time that this extension's companion app that took forever (at least 25 minutes if not longer for a mere 40-minute video).

Sometimes, change is good to force one to find something else. Whatever Video Downloader did shoved me in the right direction.
