About Flowplayer Downloader

Just visit a page with a Flowplayer video. The extension spots the player automatically and shows every quality tier with estimated file sizes. Pick the resolution you want and the download starts instantly.

For HLS streams, the extension fetches and stitches segments into a single MP4 inside your browser. Direct MP4 sources download in one pass with no conversion step. A live progress panel tracks speed, bytes, and ETA while you work.

When the file is ready, it lands in your downloads folder with a clear name. A desktop notification lets you know it’s done. Settings and licence stay on your machine, and no external analytics ever leave your browser.

How It Works

Download in 3 clear steps

01

Browse to any webpage hosting a Flowplayer video embed. The extension automatically detects the player once the page loads.

02

Open the extension

Click the toolbar icon or right-click the page. The extension reads stream configurations and presents available quality options.

03

Select quality and start

Choose your preferred resolution. For HLS streams the extension fetches segments and stitches them; for direct files it downloads immediately.

Happy Users

Recent customer feedback

Short, practical feedback from people using Flowplayer Downloader in real workflows.

Useful for media archiving

I work in PR and frequently need to archive press conference recordings hosted on Flowplayer. This handles HLS streams without any extra steps. Reliable for the streams I saved.

Grabbed recordings just in time

A conference I attended used Flowplayer for session recordings and took them down after 30 days. Managed to grab everything I needed with two days to spare.

Smooth experience on Firefox

The progress tracking is well done — speed and ETA are accurate. Downloaded a dozen videos on Firefox without babysitting it.

Features

Everything it does

Core capabilities included in Flowplayer Downloader.

The extension is designed to spot Flowplayer embeds on any webpage you browse.

It will interpret stream details and show quality options alongside predicted file sizes.

HLS adaptive streams are planned to be stitched into a single MP4 inside your browser.

Direct MP4 links will be fetched in one operation with no extra processing.

A context-menu option lets you initiate a download without opening the main popup.

A real-time progress bar displays transfer speed, data received, remaining time, and control buttons.

Your chosen settings and licence details stay stored in your own browser.

A system notification will appear once a download finishes or if a problem arises.

It is built to operate on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave, and Opera on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Go to a site that includes a Flowplayer video; the tool will identify the player after the page finishes loading.

Launch the extension via its icon or the right-click menu, and it will display the available stream qualities.

Pick a resolution: for segmented HLS streams the extension assembles the file; direct sources begin saving immediately.
