Save location

Files go to your browser’s Downloads location. Choose a subfolder here to keep them neatly together.

Subfolder inside Downloads

This opens the browser’s own settings to choose the root folder. Extensions cannot silently choose an arbitrary system folder.

Ask where to save individual videosLeave this off to avoid Save As dialogs. Creator collections use the preset folder. Turn off “Ask where to save each file before downloading” in your browser’s Downloads settings too. Existing files are kept with numbered suffixes.Give each creator their own subfolder

Video quality

Used for creator collections. If a preferred quality isn’t available, we choose the best lower quality. Retrying a video keeps its original quality preference.

Preferred maximum qualitySkip videos already marked as savedUses this extension’s history, not a scan of your disk. Clearing history resets this check.

Downloads

Randomize video titlesSave with a random 10-character name, such as k7m2q9w4Bn.mp4. Applies when each file is saved, including queued videos. Original titles remain in the download manager. Creator subfolders are unchanged; turn them off above if you prefer.Simultaneous downloadsMore downloads can use spare bandwidth, but use more memory. Different websites run in separate groups to preserve their request headers. Lowering this limit lets current downloads finish.

Creator scanning

One page request at a time, with duplicate protection and fresh media links for every download.

Delay between pages (ms)Maximum pages

Use 0 for no page limit: scanning continues until a not-found or empty creator page. Blocked pages and repeated-page loops stop with an explanation.

Up to 1 GiB of input per video. Temporary media stays in browser storage and is removed after saving or cancellation. Protected and live streams are unsupported.

Troubleshooting

Advanced logging

Record request stages, timing, browser network errors and response statuses on this device. Excludes signed URLs, cookies and playback tokens. Keeps the latest 300 events until cleared. Save preferences before retrying a download.
