JikDown
Downloader for HLS / M3U8 streaming and web video
HLS / M3U8 detection
Finds streams playing on the page and merges the segments into a single MP4 without re-encoding.
Parallel segment download
Fetches several segments at once, keeps them in order and retries failed ones automatically.
Streams to disk
In supported browsers, data is written straight to your disk instead of piling up in memory.
Stays on your device
Processing runs in your browser or extension. Your videos and personal information are not sent to external servers.
Coming soon: desktop apps for Windows and macOS, built for very large files.
