Download with yt-dlp
Important: This extension requires a companion local server running on your machine to execute downloads.

To set up the local backend server, instructions, and source code, visit the GitHub repository: https://github.com/PlasmaDrifter/yt-dlp-firefox-extension

Download with yt-dlp adds a context menu option to easily send video and link URLs directly to yt-dlp from Firefox with a single right-click.

Requirements & Setup
Because browser extensions cannot directly execute command-line tools on your system, this extension sends the requested video URL to a local server endpoint running at http://localhost:16800/download.

Features
Right-click any video or link and select "Download video with yt-dlp".
Lightweight background script with zero telemetry or data collection.
Clean integration with your local yt-dlp setup.
