Leaves big watermarks on videos. Free version is useless.

This addon has never been really good, but unfortunately it is indispensable due to the lack of alternatives. With the last update it has become much worse. A proper download in Firefox is no longer possible. The developers are desperate to sell their own addon.
Alternatively, you can just copy the link and open it in the Free Download Manager. This is not comfortable.

Works alright on windows, but runs like absolute buns on Linux. Downloads move at a snails pace yet I have StarLink. Makes absolutely no sense at all!

Do not pay the $30.00 for "Lifetime Use"! Been there, did that. If your computer goes down, "Lifetime Use" meets with an early death and cannot rise up like Lazarus without throwing ANOTHER $30 to Video Download Helper.
This time, lifetime was only three weeks.
That said, the add on is really good. But, lifetime should mean lifetime.

Tried to download audio from Chrome with this extension but it says "Please use the Firefox version". So then I download the Firefox version and it says "Please install the external program". So I download and install the external program but then it says "Please pay $30 for a license to download audio". WTH!?

They made me jump through all these loops just to sell me a license at the very end!

Chrome version works fine for downloading videos so I'll give it an extra star.

One star for converting qr code. even if there will be 1 euro i will not pay it because it was free and now searching for money it is not problem to pay but from zero to 20eu.. Why author is not asking politly for donation, im monthly subscriber/donator for many platforms, like Archive.org, etc, thanks but not thanks.

The software was free and has always worked fine. However they added a watermark. The watermark however also was applied to some videos downloaded PRIOR this update. I don't think the software should be able to do that.

Converting video to mp3 requires installing additional software and after that tells that I need to pay 20 euro for converter license.

Now its watermarked. BS.

I like the extension, but when the connection times out, the extension stutters and gets into an idiot loop and browser has to be restarted. Also, it would be nice to easily rename files as well as see what filename the video is being downloaded as.

This addon adds noticeable delay to every youtube page loaded. When scrolling youtube shorts, this extension alone adds delay before UI is responsive, and VERY poor performance after quickly scrolling past 2+ videos. After attempting to scroll through 3+ youtube shorts, the videos will begin to buffer, not load, and firefox memory and cpu utilization spike for a moment before catching back up.

Works great. Keeps files downloading when they would otherwise stop and have to be restarted. Easy to start downloads.
