Autor: Firefox user 17588622, 2 lata temuIt's mostly good when it works, which has been most of the time. JDownloader and Open Video Downloader seem to cover its gaps fine.
I have a minor issue and a major issue, though, causing this two star review.
First, the minor issue is that the "support site"/"forums" is a Google Groups conversation, except that's been blocked (by Google?) with a "Banned content warning". "Video DownloadHelper Q&A has been identified as containing spam, malware, or other malicious content." So you guys are getting this ugly feedback/"bug report" here.
Second, the major issue, for whatever reason, I'm pretty sure this plugin has been causing me major, major memory management issues in Firefox, especially with Twitch open. Basically, I leave a Twitch stream open for several hours (let's say 4+), close the tab, and the entire browser locks up for up to a minute (non-responsive program). I experience similar issues opening some media tabs during long and heavy browsing sessions without closing the browser.
This has also caused GPU driver crashes (AMD and nVidia) + crashing Discord, Hydrus, Path of Exile, Windows Explorer. Your extension is doing this! I don't know if it's a combination with something else, but I think this is the cause. This has been going on for years, across three graphics cards (AMD 290X, nVidia 970, nVidia 3070). The newer GPUs have been more resilient but that's only treating a symptom.
I have checked my computer with multiple memory management apps looking for anything that stands out: Task Manager (Processes and Performance), Resource Monitor, ProcessExplorer, RAMMap, Poolmon. I found some minor oddities that I've done my best to address, but the problem wasn't fixed. No issue in Chrome (does not have Video DownloadHelper). I tested Firefox on a clean profile with no issue. I started a new Firefox profile, but manually restored many parts of my old profile (dirty restore) with all my old extensions and the problem came back. I turned off half my extensions including this one, and the problem went away (for a few blissful months). I've since turned on a few of those extensions separately with no issue. Last night I turned on this extension too, and the problem is finally back.
As of typing this, I have one Twitch tab open right now. This browser session has been going for 12-24 hours, let's say. I check Video DownloadHelper's button in the Twitch tab. VDH is showing me 40 things I can download. 40! Most are streams, but I've only visited maybe 5 channels this entire browsing session. VDH shows multiple quality options for streams with transcoding, as it should. Some of these options are from tabs I closed hours ago. Some streamer avatars are mismatched. This can't be right.
I'm going to turn off your extension now. If I'm wrong I'll delete this report. I'm so tired of this.

- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Marco, 2 dni temuEra il miglior programma per scaricare, ora è il peggiore.Se non paghi il video scaricato avrà una filigrana e la cosa bella è che quando hai finito di scaricare ti appare un messaggio con scritto: "Se NOTERAI il video avrà una filigrana ...". Caspita, certo che ho NOTATO! la filigrana occupa un quarto dello schermo!! programma divenuto inguardabile e inutile, disinstallato.

- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Firefox user 13495615, 2 dni temuАбсолютно хаотичный интерфейс: автоматом добавляет кучу всяких ссылок — не понятно, это уже закачивается или нет; наводишь на элемент управления, он тут же на что-то другое заменяется — из-за этого контролировать процесс загрузки невозможно; нажал скачать — полчаса прошло, загрузилось лишь 1 минута файла. Короче бред полный, а не скачивалка. Ах да, ещё требует установить какое-то внешнее приложение (на ваш страх и риск, естественно). В топку.
- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Elf Mathews, 2 dni temuKeeps asking me to download a "Companion App" in order to download videos, and absolutely NOTHING about this is written in the extension description.
It leads you to their own website so you can download and install their app, which gives them access to you files and could be very dangerous. The purpose of extensions is exactly to contain their effects within the browser only, which is safer.
Feels extremely suspicious, and the fact that this is "recommended" sincerely strengthens my recent thoughts of abandoning Firefox altogether. - Ocena: 5/5Autor: JoJoMoFo, 2 dni temui rated this 5 stars, but im still pretty skeptical. my goal was to download a tool to help with my development skills, but so far all this is able to download is video, illl still give it a shot but if it cant fulfill my purpose ill revise this review and change to 1 star. i

- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Niclas Eriksson, 3 dni temuVery hard to see the video, hidden behind the huge waterstamp! Also the needed extra software, does not have a visible uninstaller - one has to search for that...
