It used to be free and easy to use, nowadays most features are behind a paywall which is needlessly obscured until you actually install the thing. Would honestly be fine with it if the description mentioned this is now primarily a paid app.

It used to be a great tool for downloading video, but they've changed to a pay service and now the videos have a code on them and you would have to buy a conversion license for $30 to view. There are many other free options for doing this like 9xbuddy or Stacher.

1.Klappt häufig nicht! Will dauernd eine Erweiterung haben obwohl sie schon mehrfach installiert wurde.
Dies passiert fast bei jeder Nutzung!
Sehr unbefriedigend!!!!!!!!
2. bricht den Download auch häufiger mitten drin ab!
Das Add-on ist also weiterhin nicht so gut!

no logro bajar videos

(2* за то что качает)
Адон не выполняет заявленных функций.!
По условию, водяной знак должен ставится только при конвертации.
А на деле он ставится всегда.
Еще:
Качает очень медленно, в сравнении с другими решениями.
Для своей работы требует устанавливать дополнительный софт.

(2* for downloading)
The addon does not perform the stated functions.!
According to the condition, the watermark should be placed only during conversion.
But in fact, it is always placed.
Also:
Downloads very slowly, compared to other solutions.
Requires additional software to be installed for its operation.

Used to be good, started being daft. Doesn't recognise there is a video most of the time. If it does, it doesn't recognise it correctly and wants to name it as the last video downloaded; not the one actually present. I honestly don't know why I bother.

Downloads videos [not mp3 unless you pay], demands additional download of program, puts a QR code on top of the video if you do not pay. Drop this shite.

С Youtube не скачивает видео (скачивает на очень очень медленной скорости, и в какой-то момент вообще перестает грузить, останавливаясь на каком-то количестве процентов). Так же заметил глюк, что видео при попытке скачки иногда неправильно именуются (к примеру как предыдущий просмотренный видеоролик).
Ставлю 2 звездочки вместо одной, только потому что возможно с каких-то сайтов видео он все таки умеет качать (не проверял особо активно).

Non funziona su Streaming Community... i download si avviano ma poi non finiscono mai, si fermano ad una certa percentuale e stop, peccato.

Lorsque plus qualités sont disponibles, ne permet d'enregistrer que la vidéo dans la résolution la plus haute, ce qui n'est pas toujours un avantage.

The free version seems easier. I purchased the license hoping to download videos directly to MP3 but those options are not apparent. The "help" section of VDH shows screenshots that indicate selecting the output file format as MP3. In reality, what shows up (in my updated Firefox browser) looks nothing like the screenshot in their help section.

The only download format options I get are MP4s and MKV. In addition, if I start the download and realize I want it saved into a different folder, I have to cancel the download, go into settings and change the destination folder. But then the VDH will not allow me to download again from that same browser. I have to close the video, open a new tab and then cue it up again. BIG TIME WASTER.

If you want to download directly to MP3 you have to right click the 3 dots to the right of the "Download" and then "Download Audio" will appear as an option. This was very difficult to figure out.

In other words, the paid version is cumbersome and time consuming.

I did download their open source add but you need to close and re-open your browser, and even then the options to download and convert are not user friendly.

Hope this helps others.

Works but it's completely unusable with the watermark. It's basically an adware now

Downloading is disabled or unstable at many sites.

rating 2/5 because on average only 2/5 videos manage to download without failing.

the new UI is also terrible, i genuinely have no idea why the legacy UI shows time remaining and the new one doesnt

oh and if you decide to use the companion app i hope you want to keep it because it doesnt show up in apps so its a pain to uninstall

Do you like massive QR codes in your downloaded videos?
Would you like to pay to have them removed?

It was great before. But now, doesn't work anymore. Videos stop at 3/4 downloading Or fail. Or unreadable. Sad news

Loved it when it was not downloading the video BEHIND a QR Code T-T
