Deze addon verschijnt niet in de werkbalk. Kan dus ook niet gebruikt worden. Jammer de vorige versies waren goed.

Die neue Version verlangsamt den Computer derartig, dass man besser auf den Downloadhelper verzichtet. Schade, vorher war das ein hervorragendes Addon!

Konnte kein Video downloaden.

Artık çalışmıyor ve PC uygulaması indirmemizi istiyor. Sildim gitti.

The developer gives instructions that are supposed to work on other linux systems but after successfully installing and even restarting the computer, clicking on the download link prompts you to install the companion again. Waste of time. I trued on Fedora 26

Verbraucht >75% meiner CPU und legt den Computer lahm, ich werde es wieder löschen.

Not working any longer.Says companion app is needed.This extra step needed to possibly get it working again is just to much trouble so will look for something better.I will keep it around for a short time to see if this is fixed.In the meantime I will use something else.

Its nothing like it used to be. Whoever is responsible for current development should be ashamed of what he did to this plugin. Its useless and horribly unefficient unless you are willing to pay for full version. Authors even go as far as LYING when it comes reencoding whole video just to add some crappy watermark - it is called "sumowanie" on polish locale, which is basically BS compared to whats actually going on.

Most likely hit a paywall, but couldn't find a way around having my media downloaded with a watermark. Nothing more frustrating!

This add-on is garbage! The interface is horrible and it requests that you download another free app to make it actually work. Now here's the kicker...you still have to PURCHASE a license agreement to convert files. Even just attempting to DL one video without converting it to a more usable format, IT FAILED! What a crock of shit! NEXT!

Won't work on OpenSUSE (no .rpm for the other part). It might as well not exist for all the good it does me.

It doesn't allow users to specify the directory to download files.

Sorry but this is real shit.

Give me something that works

Bonito "cacho código bidi" en parte superior izquierda durante "todo" el vídeo, ya podía estar un rato como el típico "ripeado por fulano", ni me he molestado en escanearlo.

Otros add-ons hacen lo mismo sin tener que instalar la "co-aplicación" esta, demasiadas complicaciones para el mismo resultado.

...desinstalando

So this is basically my response to this that I received from a "developer" in response to my first review:

"Have you ever thought that if you download with the companion app, there is no reason (and no possibility) to see the download in the browser download manager ? And that if you see incoming data, there is a video file created somewhere in your disk, like at the default download location of the add-on that you can configure through several ways.
I suggest you check the support forum https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!forum/video-downloadhelper-q-and-a"

To answer the question, yes, I considered, that. I rejected it as bad design. The download queue in your "add on" is jenky at best, hard to get to, and fussy as all hell. Firefox has a perfectly good download manager, I'd much rather see stuff there, like it used to be. If you have an issue with the new, but hardly improved Firefox API, then that's between you and Firefox.

Second, yes, I checked the default locations. I'm not quite as stupid as you seem to think. When I said it wasn't there, I meant it. It's not there. I'm not going to go hunting on the disk for a file that may have been created in some random place. If you did and and I caught you doing it, you'd have gotten an entirely different review the first time and you'd have been flagged as abusive.

I continue to search for a solution that works, but it sounds like you need to really embrace the new Firefox API and refactor the program rather than trying to make it work like it used to.

I don't understand why people like this dumbass downloader. It doesn't work worth crap! Half of the videos I've attempted to get are unavailable or they have to go through some stupid app that you have to get. Why don't they just include it into the damn thing? Then, once you get the downloaded video, it has a big, ugly, opaque watermark covering like half of the screen, and the only way to get rid of the thing is by giving them twenty bucks. I'm sorry, but that is not the Firefox vibe. I gave up on Video DownloadHelper when I found the VASTLY superior Ant Movie Downloader. Now, that is a good app that does what it promises and stays free the whole time. And if the developers of VDH respond to my review, that doesn't mean their app is good, just that they employ people to try to convince the public that they are helpful and responsive. In truth, all they are is deceitful parasites. Although, a good point was just made to me: the name is "helper" not "downloader", so it's technically not false advertising. But c'mon, that's just lame. This thing sucks balls.
