Lode - Video Downloader & Converter Autor: Lode

Lode is a desktop app for Windows and Linux that downloads and converts video, audio, GIFs and images. This extension adds a Lode button to your browser: open a page, click it, and the media goes straight to the app.

What you can do from any page:
- Download a video in the quality and format you choose (MP4, MKV, WebM)
- Extract the audio as MP3, FLAC, WAV or M4A
- Make a GIF from a video
- Save the images of a post or a gallery
- Download a whole playlist, carousel or multi-media post

How it works:
1. Open a page with a video, a song, a post or a playlist.
2. Click Lode in the toolbar, or right-click the page.
3. Pick a mode: Video + Audio, Video, Audio, Image or GIF.
4. Choose one item or the whole post or playlist.
5. The download starts in the app, with your saved settings and presets. Progress and history show right in the popup.

The extension uses your browser session, so pages you can see while signed in work too.

In the app itself you can also convert files you already have (to MP4, MP3, GIF, WebP, AVIF and more), compress a video, cut a clip, remove a green screen and fix "codec not supported" errors in Premiere Pro, After Effects or DaVinci Resolve.
