Chrome video downloader extension
Video downloader extension for Chrome, Brave, and Edge.
Video Download Manager helps Chrome users identify authorized open MP4 and unencrypted HLS media with readable titles, previews, source labels, quality labels, and duration details when those signals are available.
Current-tab matching
The extension focuses on media requests from the page you are using, so stale previews and unrelated background requests are easier to avoid.
Readable video cards
Open media requests are grouped into cards with title, source, preview, format, quality, and duration where detectable.
Store-policy conscious
The product is for permitted non-DRM media. It does not support YouTube downloads, DRM bypassing, paywall bypassing, or unauthorized access.
How the Chrome video downloader works
Open a page with media you are allowed to save, start playback, and then open the extension. Video Download Manager compares active-tab requests with the visible player and page metadata so the most likely current video appears before stale preloads and duplicate sources.
- Detect a direct MP4 file or supported unencrypted M3U8/HLS stream.
- Review the title, preview, source, duration, format, and quality when available.
- Select a preferred quality or let Auto choose the best available match.
- Follow download progress and stop an active download from the extension.
Choose the guide that matches the video source
Read the direct MP4 downloader guide for regular video files, the M3U8 and HLS downloader guide for adaptive streams, or check the supported media page before installing.
