by Firefox user 16255010, 4 years agoSo far, it seems to be a brilliant extension, but I will have to figure out all its possibilities.
For example, I think I installed the ffmpeg correctly, but when I try to merge, my Firewall asks for permission to connect to 127.0.0.1 etc.
I'm guessing that this is not a problem, but I will have to figure that out before I allow it.
It would be nice if that was explained somewhere.
PS: I gave the permission to my firewall, because the adress 127.0.0.1 directs to my own computer ("localhost") and in the "settings" of the extension I Installed the "native client" and the "Ffmpeg". The merging didn't work at first, but then I specified the path where the "Ffmpeg" is located, and the path where I wanted the merged file to be created, and it worked!
BRILLIANT!!!
PPS: The problem with this extension is that the developer did a poor job of explaining how it works and how to set it up correctly. For example a very basic thing was never explained: when one downloads a "video only" resolution, an audio file will be downloaded too, and if the extension is set up correctly, the two will be merged.
Fascinating how some people don't understand the need for good communication...
Take a look at this video which explains just that:

And I still don't know what "Post processing (if FFmpeg is installed)" is about?

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15223049, 2 months agoSince YouTube decided to make even more money in spring 2025, and therefore pulled the strings in their content delivery system very tight, this tool doesn't work anymore.
It would need an update to again become one of the best YouTube downloaders out there, because that's what it was. Also it was one of the most versatile tools.
Once it got 5 stars from me using a different account, currently only one star because you can't vote zero stars.
I would like to see this tool resurrected, but for the time being I'll use Videomass. - Rated 1 out of 5by bigsmilescartoons, 2 months agouse "Downr YouTube Downloader" instead. Search for it in addon store.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 5836511, 5 months agoHas been a really great addon for a long time until it stopped working for me three years ago.
So I did let it live in my firefox out of hope that someday there may be an update which would get it working again.
But I think after three years of waiting in vain, it's safe to pronounce this add-on dead, uninstall it and look for alternatives.
So long, and thanks for all the videos, but I guess it's time to move on. - Rated 1 out of 5by malau, 5 months agoI was shocked to see that this was still installed. No buttons have shown up for years. It's a totally broken mess that i'm, about to remove.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Booff, 6 months agoThis was the best youtube downloader available but it no longer works and it appears the developer has given up as no updates for 3 years.
