Stream Katcher

Detect and analyze media streams in the current tab.

Stream Katcher helps you work with media detected in the current Chrome tab. Play HLS streams from M3U8 playlists and DASH streams from MPD manifests. Preview and download compatible MP4 or WebM files. Open the side panel to browse detected items, preview a clip, or open it in the built-in player. Search and filters help you find the source you need. • Choose playback quality or an audio track when the source provides them. • Use fullscreen, Picture in Picture, playback speed, and repeat controls. • Save a source to your Library to return to it later. • Download compatible media to your computer and follow its progress. Library entries keep a source reference and preview, not an offline file. A saved source may stop working when its link expires. You can protect your Library and download history with a local PIN. The optional Turbo Download companion for macOS handles larger downloads and combines supported tracks. Google Drive integration and cloud sync are available with eligible access. The companion must be installed and running separately. Availability depends on the source, your access to it, and browser support. Some media cannot be played or saved. This extension does not record the screen or bypass DRM. Live streaming playback does not guarantee that a stream can be downloaded.
