File Centipede by namelessitguy

This browser extension replaces the browser’s built-in download manager, allowing you to download videos, audio, images, and other file types based on custom rules. It is also ideal for collecting web content in bulk for everyday work.

1. Download Manager Integration: Supports the FileCXX desktop downloader by default. You can also add other download tools or custom backends in Settings. Switch back to the browser’s built-in download manager at any time with a single click in the Popup.
2. Multiple File Types: Download videos, audio, images, and other files that match your custom rules.
3. Batch Downloads and Media Preview: Batch-download videos, audio, and images, with media previews available before downloading.

Downloading streaming formats such as M3U8 and MPD requires a companion desktop application to download and assemble the media into a complete video file. Without a compatible desktop downloader, the extension can only download the raw metadata files, such as playlists or media manifests, rather than the actual video content.


In accordance with Chrome Web Store policies, this extension does not support downloading YouTube videos.
