CNET Editors' review
This free Firefox add-on is supposed to help speed up the process of downloading and saving embedded video files, but we found nothing fast or effective about this program.
Fast Video Download's interface consists of a status-bar icon. A right-click gives you the choice of downloading the video or visiting the Options menu. The Options menu lets you choose file formats and select the download manager, but each download manager we chose came back with an error message. During our tests, we found that the program took several minutes to download videos. On several occasions, the program failed to download the video and returned an error message. What's more, when we tried to play the saved video files, we couldn't get them to work.
With its spotty performance, we certainly can't recommend this program. Save yourself the trouble and look for a more functional video-download tool.
