WhaleDown

There are many video sharing websites out there but most do not offer a built-in download option. Fortunately, the online world does not lack video downloaders, which allow you to grab content and save it locally to create an offline collection you can access whenever you want, even when an Internet connection is not available. One such application is WhaleDown.

A video downloader should be focused on simplicity, convenience and ease of use and that is exactly what WhaleDown has to offer. 

Thanks to its built-in Chrome-based web browser, you can navigate to various video sharing websites to find the video you are looking for without having to use another software. The browser works independently of the downloader, which makes it possible for you to preview a video while browsing or grabbing it for offline use. Multiple tabs can be opened, which allows you to search for content simultaneously in different sources. 

Another interesting tool included in WhaleDown is the automatic detector. As a video is playing in any of the opened tabs of the browser, the detector adds it to its list and prompts you to send any entry to the downloader. The HTTP(S), HLS (m3u8) and DASH (mpd) streaming protocols are supported.

The video downloader in WhaleDown displays the download queue, allowing you to quickly navigate to the location where the files are saved, preview the video or copy its download link, if you need to.

WhaleDown is a video downloader that is definitely worth your while. It is compatible with various video sharing websites and comes with support for 4K videos and live streams, allowing you to create an offline video library. Even though it features an integrated web browser, it would come in handy to allow browser integration for the automatic detection of video playback regardless of the browser you are using.
