the latest version, v10 (i think), is great! it fixed several inconveniences in previous versions.

V10 is absolute garbage. It removed very well working options, like downloading in browser for an options hidden, non configurable, unstable, just all in all bad programm.

Had 27 of my first 30 downloads in V10 be unusuable!

Just use 9.5. That one actually works and if you use the download in browser function you can resume downloads when they get interrupted, which you CAN NOT in the new version!
Any slight hicucp and the file is ruined.

The v10 update wants a new permission: locks on all open tabs - something like that, but that's too many permissions. Thanks, but no, I'm staying on v9.

excellent

千萬不要更新到10.0！更新以後無法下載直播影片，下載一般影片也多是壞檔……

Extensão excelente. Dá para baixar em alta qualidade

The new download preview feature has made it easier to identify tasks.

This next section contains our requests.
We request that the download quality settings can be fixed/set as a default on the selection screen during download, as was possible in the previous version.
Additionally, we would like to still be able to specify a custom/dedicated download directory, just like in the previous version.

If multiple download files share the same name, we request that consecutive numbering (e.g., "xxx-1.mp4") be appended to the file name, following the order in which the download entries were made, just like in the previous version.If sequential numbering is not possible, we request that the download process strictly follow the order in which the tasks were registered.When file naming is dependent on the browser, the order can become irregular (unpredictable) when multiple download entries are made simultaneously.

The upgrade has made it less functional.　Unfortunately, while it was previously possible to assign the window title to the file name, it seems that the file name is now being retrieved from a different location than before, and the file name is not being set correctly. Please fix this.

Works brilliantly most of the times. Some videos dont get downloaded, but in general, its a fantastic tool.

(^_^)

It works like a charm. No watermark .I can’t understand the negatives reviews.

Worst update so far, the new interface is just good looking but sucks because it removes options and functionalities.
Just rollback to version 9.5.0.2

Downloads run nicely, is updated quickly if it does not work after changes. Very nice extension.

you should write a blog post "how to eff-up a pretty good downloader in one update" I noted this change earlier in the chromium browsers like Brave etc, Yesterday the same crud was pushed into Firefox. I don't understand the thinking, it's awful, going backwards in functionality (apparently) I've removed the five stars I put up not long after this addon first appeared and replaced it with this. Looks like the number of decent downloaders gets even smaller. Remove it and put the earlier one back up

As others have stated, version 10 came with a fresh coat of paint and widescale destruction of previously working functionality. I, and many others have had to downgrade until these issues are fixed.

Guys... you have a beta testing branch. Isn't this the kind of stuff that should be staying there, until it's actually functional?

Hate the new update.No works. Please revert.

Video Download Helper was the number 1 extension for downloads but the December automatic update killed the app. I had to download to version 9.5.0.2 and turn off automatic updates. Downloads now work again. Fix the problem with version 10.0.271.2 and I will give you 5 stars again.

V10 removes %pathname from smart naming makes one click saving a multistep operation(not sure if CSS selectors can replace, beyond my current knowledge), not sure why it was removed, you would think basic path names would still be useful.

Back on 9.5 until it's fixed, I find an alternate extension or workout CSS selectors for pathname. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The author of this extension. You're asking too much, buddy. Not only does the author ask you to install the program on your computer, but he also asks for too many permissions. With this kind of success, I might as well just use the built-in software from the graphics card manufacturer and simply record the screen. Or use free software to record any signal source in two clicks. Unfortunately, this is one of the worst extensions for Firefox. This buddy even asks for money.

Hate the new update. It's clunky and difficult to manage. Many options are just gone. Please revert.

update unwittingly ruined my downloads. now its useless trash. now deleted from my pc. shame. i though it was a good addon until latest update.

EDIT:

you can use last update which works. im not allowed to attach the link. just google video downloadhelper older updates.
