I had good results from FreeTube or NewPipe for many websites, but not all, so lately, I have been using VideoDownloadHelper, in Firefox: https://v10.downloadhelper.net/ However, for some downloads it needs an additional component: https://github.com/aclap-dev/video-downloadhelper/wiki/CoApp-Installation which I have only installed on Windows. -- ubuntu-studio-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
