Changelog

July 20, 2026

• Fixed Live recordings of AV1 cam streams (`St*****at`-family sites) captured nothing at all — they now record correctly
• Fixed Recordings longer than about 12 minutes no longer save as unseekable files reporting a 0-second duration, and a finished recording now reports the length actually recorded rather than the total elapsed broadcast time
• Fixed Video ads are no longer offered as downloadable videos — ad creatives and server-stitched (SSAI) ad manifests are now filtered out instead of failing with a confusing "not a valid HLS manifest" error
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 28, 2026

• Fixed When a single page hosts two different videos, each now shows as its own download card instead of being collapsed into one — so you can grab both
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 22, 2026

• Fixed Restored downloads on sites that scramble their video manifests (`91***na` and similar), which previously failed to parse
• Fixed Downloads now wait out longer server rate-limit (429) pauses before giving up, so large files on busy CDNs complete more reliably
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 19, 2026

• Fixed Multi-gigabyte downloads (2–3 GB and up) now save reliably — large files no longer fail at the final save step with a "failed to retrieve" error or a false "not enough downloaded" message
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 18, 2026

• Fixed Fixed downloads that could fail near the end with a missing-segment error when the browser reclaimed storage mid-download — evicted pieces are now recovered before the file is saved
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 15, 2026

• Fixed Downloaded videos now seek correctly in hardware and general players (PotPlayer, Smart TVs, Android TV) — the progress bar no longer freezes outside VLC

• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 13, 2026

• Fixed Fixed save failures (storage and file-write errors) that could happen when several downloads ran at the same time
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 12, 2026

• Fixed Long videos (roughly 40 minutes and up) no longer fail near the end with an out-of-memory error — large downloads are now assembled on disk instead of in memory
• Improved Large MP4 downloads start playing right away instead of only after the whole file finishes, because the file index is now written up front
• Fixed Interrupted downloads stay resumable through the final save step, so a hiccup near the end no longer forces you to start over
• Fixed The Retry button stays visible and works after a page reload, picking up from where the download stopped
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 11, 2026

• Fixed Instagram videos now download the full file with audio, instead of a silent mid-stream slice

June 6, 2026

• New Clip & Trim Download — grab just the part you want from a video, with a seekable preview to set the exact in and out points before you save (works on both HLS and DASH on-demand videos)
• Improved Closing the clip panel now fully releases its preview player, so it no longer keeps decoding in the background and slowing things down
• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 6, 2026

• Improved DASH streams that split one asset across many representations now collapse into a single card per video, and DASH sources can be previewed before download
• Fixed Download and video-detail dialogs now open centered over the popup instead of being squeezed inside a video card

• Improved Supported-site catalog continues to grow

June 4, 2026

• Fixed Deduplicated download cards for a single live stream on a live-cam site (ca***er.c*m) that exposes both HLS and WebRTC feeds
