Most sites have no download button, because the video is delivered as a stream cut into hundreds of small segments. HyperVideo listens to what the page actually loads, groups the streams it finds into one list, and saves the one you want in a single click — at the original quality and without re-encoding.
There are no external converters and no middleman servers: traffic goes straight between your browser and the site, and the file is assembled in the tab's memory. That is why it also works where online services cannot reach, such as internal portals available only from your network.
What it does HyperVideo
Finds streams, not just files
HLS playlists (.m3u8), DASH manifests (.mpd), plain MP4, WebM and MOV, audio-only tracks, and streams rebuilt from segments when the playlist itself is hidden.
Everything visible before you download
Exact file size from the server, real duration from the file header, every available quality with an estimated size, and a thumbnail frame so you never grab the wrong clip.
Downloads without re-encoding
MP4 is rebuilt from TS segments as-is — no quality loss, and far faster than conversion.
Audio on its own
Export any clip as audio only, in M4A or MP3 — handy for lectures, webinars and podcasts.
Queue and batch downloads
Line up several clips and let them run; every file is verified before it is written to disk.
Screen recording with sound
One click records the current tab together with its audio. The capture frame snaps to the video, sound keeps playing in your headphones, and the result exports as WebM or MP4.
How to use it
- Open the page and let the video play for a second or two so the extension can see the stream.
- Click the HyperVideo icon — every detected video appears with a thumbnail, duration and size.
- Pick quality and container, then hit Download. For audio only, choose M4A or MP3.
- To record instead, switch to the Recording tab, set the capture frame and press start.
Who it is for
- Keep a webinar or course recording before your access expires
- Grab source footage for a presentation instead of linking out
- Save material from an internal portal that online services cannot reach
- Record a bug or a workflow to attach to a ticket
- Pull the audio out of a lecture and listen on the move
How to install
Find the extension you need and press Install
The right Chrome Web Store page opens in your browser.
Press Install on the Chrome Web Store page
A blue Install button appears on the right of the listing — click it. If the page opened in a different browser (Safari, say), copy its address into Chrome, Yandex Browser, Edge or Opera and press the button there.
Pin the icon to the toolbar
Open the extensions list in your browser settings and pin the new extension to the toolbar.
Done — open the extension
Click its icon in the browser. No account, no payment, no setup needed.
All four browsers (Chrome, Yandex Browser, Microsoft Edge, Opera) are built on the Chromium platform, so extensions for them all come from one place — the Chrome Web Store. Chrome and Yandex Browser open the listing directly. Edge asks once for permission to install from other stores — choose “Allow”. Opera needs the free Install Chrome Extensions add-on, after which the install button appears on the normal listing page.
Frequently asked questions
Does HyperVideo work in Edge, Brave, Opera or Yandex Browser?
Yes. They are all Chromium-based and install extensions straight from the Chrome Web Store, exactly as Chrome does.
Can I download from YouTube?
HyperVideo is not built to bypass a service's protection or terms. It works with open streams the page hands to your browser: company portals, landing pages, webinar platforms, media libraries and documentation.
What is m3u8, and why does “save as” not work?
m3u8 is an HLS playlist: the clip is cut into hundreds of short segments that the browser stitches together on the fly, so a plain save produces a broken file. HyperVideo reassembles the segments into one MP4 without re-encoding.
Does the extension send my data anywhere?
No. No servers, no analytics, no trackers, no ads. Traffic goes directly between your browser and the site you are downloading from.
How much does it cost?
Nothing. It is free, with no in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Does downloading reduce quality?
No. The file is assembled from the original segments with no second encode, so it matches the source.
