NicoFox

If you are looking for an easy way to download clips from the Nico Nico Douga video website, you may want to try NicoFox.

It is a lightweight Firefox add-on that enables you to download videos and comments, then view them with the built-in media player. It integrates well into the browser's interface and does not draw your attention when it is not being used.

After installing the add-on, you can browse for a video on the website and download it to your computer, together with any comments and thumbnails.

You can define the maximum number of videos that can be downloaded simultaneously and set up a custom file naming scheme, as well as specify where the clips should be saved.

When also downloading comments, you can select the languages that should be included.

You can change the size of the displayed thumbnails or have the application remove them entirely.

Because the website only allows users to view low-quality videos when traffic is especially high, NicoFox enables you to schedule downloads to start when these restrictions are lifted. This makes it possible to obtain high-quality versions of the videos as soon as they are available.

NicoFox features a built-in media player, allowing you to view the downloaded videos, together with the saved comments. Should many of them be available, you can choose to have only certain languages displayed.

It is also possible to use external players for FLV or MP4 videos, as well as a separate one for SWF files.

The add-on allows you to search for videos among the clips you have downloaded, making it easy to find the ones you are looking for.

NicoFox is a useful Firefox add-on that can help you download videos and comments from the Nico Nico Douga video website.
