*Slow as hell, and misleading*

After you spend half an hour downloading your 1-hour video (on a Gigabit Internet connection), and get lied to and tricked to install their program on your computer, you find out there is a giant QR code square covering a good chunk of your screen - and now they want money.

Which would be fine if I knew upfront I had to pay for this.

Randomly stops detecting videos on sites like Udemy.

In-fact, after working fine on Udemy, it now doesn't even detect a video.

Unnecessarily over-complicated. Converted 4k video and the quality was extremely low even though the file size was extremely large. Video looked extremely muddy. No mention of needing to pay until I had spent 10 minutes downloading a video. Put a huge unbranded QR watermark in the corner that is incredibly intrusive. Companion app was a pain to uninstall because the name of the program in windows is completely unrelated to what they call it when you download it. Also pegged my CPU (Ryzen 7 5800x) for an extreme amount of resources that is normally not used for software like this. I specified a folder destination in the save menu on my (F:) Drive as that is where I store media for projects (I am an editor). Instead the 500MB file was saved to my C: Drive which is a boot SSD that is storage limited and does not have a file structure that is convenient for my profession. Overall just extremely terrible. There are open source programs that work a million times better than this and are completely free and transparent in their development.

I just installed the extension and this ask to download an installer as well, followed all the steps and when I try to download a video it doesn't, hit the "download" and never download and keep saying it's a problem downloading. Waste of time, I will keep trying another one.

A big shit

Lame, once upon a time, you could just click , download, save and go on with your life. All this companion crap and Barcodes this screw that. Uninstalled for life.

Garbage. The options menu is waaay to complicated. I downloaded a video but I can't figure out if it downloaded it or not. Where does this extension even save the videos (if it saves them at all)?

"Freemium" at best

Used to work just fine, perfectly. I loved it. Now it demand to install an add-on companion app that I DO NOT need, cuz it won't download and just doesn't work. Can't do anything with it now. Sucks. Please fix this and you'll get people back.

Requires unsigned companion app install, forces re-encoding of sources in your own machine to superimpose nag QR on video.

Been a long-time user of this add-on, until recently, when the companion app required library files newer than my most current version of a major linux distro can support. And previously you had a choice between using the browser and the app. Not so now. Add-on useless. You've dropped many users due to these latest changes.

Worthless. Everything I try to download tells me I need to download a companion app. Screw that.

Crap. Ask you to download a companion app. and then that companion app ask you to pay. DO NOT INSTALL.

после VDP: Best Video Downloader, Video DownloadHelper полный отстой. при загрузке мр3 все файлы приходится переименовывать

Absolutely garbage.

It is useless. The video format is unplayable and you need to convert it. Conversion puts a stupid HUGE QR code in the corner of the video unless you pay for the conversion. Totally useless.
