Private Downloader: Video & Stream Downloader

Save direct videos, HLS and DASH streams to Downloads. All processing stays in Chrome.

Private Downloader finds the video on the page, whether it is a file, a stream, or a live broadcast, and saves it as one file you can play anywhere. Everything happens inside your browser. There is no account, no server, and nothing is ever uploaded. What it saves - Files: Video files the page plays directly, including signed or opaque addresses, videos inside embedded players, and files a page fetches itself and plays from memory. - HLS streams: Transport-stream, fragmented-MP4, and audio-only segments, AES-128 encryption, separate audio tracks, discontinuities, and live streams recorded until you press Stop, from now or from the start of the stream's window. - DASH and more: DASH with separate video and audio, live DASH, and multi-period programmes joined into one file. Smooth Streaming too. - Players that hide their source: Record playback captures what a player loads as it plays, up to eight times faster than real time, without re-encoding. It never records DRM-protected video. - Every common codec, never re-encoded: The video and audio are repackaged exactly as the site sent them, so nothing is lost and saving is fast. - Subtitles, captions, no ads: Subtitles and closed captions go inside the video and as a .vtt file; subtitles drawn as pictures come as a .sup file. Ad breaks a stream marks are left out. Built not to fail halfway - Pause, resume, carry on: Pause any stream download. A dropped connection is waited out and the download continues where it was. Close the tab or quit the browser, and it resumes later from the same place. - No size limit: Streams are assembled on your disk, not in memory, so a three-hour recording is as safe as a three-minute clip. Four segments are fetched at a time. - Never a silent loss: A stream whose video or audio could not be saved is refused with a reason, not saved without it. The popup names DRM, live, and unsupported streams before you start. - Tested on every release: Every version runs hundreds of automated checks in real browsers, and every file they save is opened and checked to prove it plays. Private by design, not by promise - Nothing leaves your device: Videos are found, fetched, and assembled inside the extension. Video is requested only from the site you are watching, with the cookies your browser already sends it. No copy passes through anyone else's server. - No account, no telemetry: No sign-up, no analytics, no crash reports, no ads. The store listing declares that no data is collected, and the extension never contacts us for anything. - The code you install is the code that runs: No remote code and no remote configuration. Some downloaders do their work on their own website, next to ads, with code that can change without a store review. Everything here ships inside the extension and is reviewed with it. - A key that works offline: Your unlock is checked on your own device against a public key built into the extension. It never phones home, keeps working without a connection, and works on all your own devices. - Private windows stay private: Downloads keep your private window or container identity, private-window saves never reach the history, and unfinished private downloads are never written to disk. - Help without handing anything over: If a site does not work, the popup writes a report you can read before you send it: fixed labels and counts, with no page addresses, titles, tokens, or cookies. Pricing - Ten downloads, files and streams alike, to prove it works on your sites - Every format: direct files, HLS, DASH, live streams, and recordings - Every feature, no watermark, no account - No cooldowns, no daily caps, and a download is never stopped halfway to ask for payment Unlimited downloads need a one-time $19 license key, bought at https://private-downloader.pages.dev/ and sold through Link, Stripe's merchant of record, which handles payment, tax, and receipts; the store you installed from is not the seller. Terms of sale, including the 30-day refund policy, are at https://private-downloader.pages.dev/terms and https://private-downloader.pages.dev/refunds. 30-day money-back guarantee if it does not work on your sites. Not supported DRM-protected and sample-encrypted streams, and sites that block downloads. Private Downloader never bypasses logins, paywalls, or access controls.
