sorry dev I really love this extension but I just had to say this.. the new one sucks BIG time!

So einfach und dann funktioniert es zuverlässig !

(copied from Firefox user 16990717: I feel exactly the same) The new version feels like a slap in the face. In exchange for a slightly more modern user interface you have severely limited the functionality of the extension and have essentially taken away the ability for the user to configure the extension to their liking. I Have rolled back to the the last update before this and have disabled updates. Im not sure if this downgrade and reduced funtionality was done due to pressure from Google, or new management, or greed but it is very disappointing. I will begin looking into alternatives to this extension that has served me well for over 5 years. Please reconsider this new direction, this feels insulting.

I've been using this application for years but after the 12\23 update, the downloader is completely broken. It will not download anything.
It will start the process and it says there is an error and the video could not be completed. Hopefully this error gets fixed asap.

El mejor descargador de videos de la historia. Absolutamente TODO se lo traga, increíble.

This is a great plug-in that just works. It requires no tinkering or fiddling. This plugin will be in my arsenal for many years to come.

prosty simply, skuteczny executive.

Been using this for a while. Has some issues but are minor. I like the quick download ability. Large videos not so much but I almost never download large videos for personal reasons so no big deal. It does have a drawback in that it will record an English video into German. They are going to need to fix this if they really want fully public support. other than that everything is good and I would recommend this app.
New review. So issues talked about have apparently been fixed. Really a nice app now. Responsive and very useful. Thanks to the team who made it.

The best video downloader I have tried

Extremely useful tool, much used by myself. But experience a couple of glitches, at least when downloading from YouTube, by far my most used source.
1. After downloading several videos in succession, downloads fail. The work-around I have discovered is to cut the connection and change the IP# via my VPN. If that fails, a reboot makes it work.
2. Many videos are available offering dubbing in a variety of languages, the default usually being English which is what I listen to (or occasionally French in which I am fluent, if that happens to be the original). However I sometimes get a succession of recordings dubbed in German! I have no knowledge of the language and have found no solution to this.

Was wäre ich nur ohne den Video DownloadHelper. Schnell hat man eine Sendung verpasst die auch nicht wiederholt wird oder in einer Mediathek zur Verfügung steht. Dafür Tausend Dank. Und zum gegebenen Anlass, Dezember 2025, allen ein frohes Weihnachtsfest und geruhsame Festtage.

Long time user The older version more stable! the new has many bugs. but also love the new abilities! when an issue with a video occurs i wish it would say witch one and not just there was an issue with a download! one of my sights videos i used the older version it worked great for now is a hit and miss on video downloads correctly. almost prefer to go back to last versions but would miss new options! hope things get fixed

Very good

Pretty good decision for downloading content from players with a lot of ads
