  • Just use the good old &fmt=18 method:

    go to the youtube video you want to download and add

    &fmt=18

    to the URL, for instance

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx1BmK81Ygk&feature=topvideos&fmt=18

    then press enter. The page for the video loads again, and now DownloadHelper offers you

    video.mp4

    Rename the video yourself after download.

    Thanks for this fantastic Add-On!!

    Developer response

    This issue is due to a change in YouTube video management. Please allow us some time to provide a fix.

  • Después de haber probado otros plugins similares éste es, con diferencia, mi favorito por su versatilidad y facilidad de uso.

  • its awesome

  • the Best

  • Wonderful addon, works for a majority of sites and the automatic convert on download is a huge advantage!
    Thanks!

  • не работает с Namoroka 3.6a1

  • Se esiste un metodo per complicare le cose e non farle funzionare, questo metodo è alla base di codesto inutile programma.
    Non funziona neanche a calci

  • This Add on is real cool ... just got it and its working good so far ...
    was waiting for something like this ...

  • It really pissed me off when I converted a video (wasting all that download/conversion time etc. only to find an UGLY icon (balloons?) superimposed over the upper left corner of the video!
    This is nothing more than crippleware.

    I immediately uninstalled it.

  • Ridiculously bloated . If I wanted to convert the videos I would use mencoder or ffmpeg. Unfortunately it is still the bast of a bad bunch.

  • its very cool

  • Muito bom!!!!!!!

  • Easy to use. Becoming a bit bloated though.

    Also when disabling "Smart Naming" in the Options, the "Smart Naming" menu still appears on the right-click menu.

  • sehr gutes add!
    mach ich immer wieder rein!!

  • this is great and very easy to use. its one of the best out there

  • Yes, I've been using this add-on (Video DownloadHelper) for months now and it's one of the most useful add-ons for Firefox but, ever since I Downloaded the Updated Version it doesn't many of the features I got used to in the Older Versions (Like Record in HD for YouTube Video's) but, it's still an Awesome add-on none the less.
