Video Downloader Pro — Save Content from Any Website in HD

Browse the web and spot a clip you need to keep? This extension detects playable media on any page, shows thumbnail previews, and lets you download it in the resolution you choose — all with a single click.

WHAT IT DOES

A floating button appears whenever a page contains playable content. Click it to open a panel showing every detected source with thumbnails and quality options. Pick the resolution you want and grab the file instantly. The tool works on Vimeo, Facebook, and thousands of other sites with direct-URL media. It handles HTML5 players, embedded frames, and script-based libraries automatically.

Perfect for:
• Creators collecting reference material
• Students archiving lectures and tutorials
• Marketers reviewing competitor clips
• Researchers preserving media for offline analysis
• Anyone who wants to save web content for personal use

HOW IT WORKS

1. Visit any page with embedded media
2. The floating button appears when sources are detected
3. Click to preview available files and choose quality (SD through 4K+)
4. Hit download — the file goes straight to your default folder

KEY FEATURES

✓ Smart detection — finds clips in HTML5 players, embedded frames, and script-based libraries
✓ Thumbnail previews — see exactly what you're grabbing before you commit
✓ Multiple quality options — SD, HD, 1080p, 4K, and higher when available
✓ One-click saving — no extra tabs, no external sites, no sign-ups
✓ Direct-URL scope — grabs files the page exposes as playable sources (MP4, WebM, etc.)
✓ Lazy-load awareness — triggers and captures dynamically loaded content
✓ Dark and light mode — adapts to your system theme automatically
✓ Privacy-first — all processing runs locally in your browser, nothing leaves your machine
✓ No bloat — clean interface, zero ads, minimal resource usage
