MediaSniffer

Detect and download media streams from the current tab.

MediaSniffer finds video and audio on the current tab and downloads the file you choose. Nothing is listed until you click Scan this tab, or until you turn on continuous detection for that tab. Continuous detection watches only that tab. Closing the tab clears the list. What you can do • Scan the open tab and see progressive files, audio, and HLS or DASH playlists. • Download a file into a MediaSniffer folder in your downloads directory. • Save a fragmented MP4, or an HLS playlist of H.264 video and AAC audio, as one MP4. • Open download history and save the same item again while the address still works. Limits • DRM and encrypted media cannot be saved. • A playlist or signed address can expire. Download it soon after a scan. • Some players keep media only in memory. Turn on continuous detection, reload the tab, and play from the start. • Browser pages such as chrome:// cannot be scanned. MediaSniffer does not include site-specific code. It uses ordinary browser signals: network requests, media elements, and common media types.
