    "Good, some stability isues"

    March 10, 2013  |   By ricksykes

    Version: Firefox Video Download Helper 2.3

    Pros

    Easy to use and works very well

    Cons

    FOr some reason, the latest version (2.3) no longer allows me to clear the list of what has been completed. Also, sometimes it will use a large portion of RAM and cause stability issues.

    Summary

    I completely recommend the program, but hope there is a bug fix released soon.

    "Not for Firefox Beta"

    September 19, 2012  |   By ddmsf

    Version: Firefox Video Download Helper 2.3

    Pros

    None. Could not download it.

    Cons

    When I clicked on the link to download this I was informed that the Firefox Download Helper does not work on my version of Firefox and could not be downloaded. I am assuming it is because I am using a Beta version of Firefox. But because I am not "tech-savvy" I can offer no further explanation.

    "was once great...now i dunno"

    August 24, 2012  |   By blackdragon6

    Version: Firefox Video Download Helper 2.3

    Pros

    great for downloading vids or um...films from other tube sites.

    Cons

    now it rarely downloads vids, or give you a accurate link to download, plus youtube seems to be trying to undermine it somehow. now all you get is ads when you think you got a music video.

    Summary

    i loved this app at one point now it's frustrating as hell.

    "Downloads don't start"

    August 19, 2012  |   By shobill2

    Version: Firefox Video Download Helper 2.3

    Pros

    Used to work great

    Cons

    Now it's crap. It records a download title, but doesn't download anything. Everything is 0 bytes. Worthless product. No documentation anywhere as to how to fix it.

    Summary

    Used to be great, now it's crap.

    "Easy tool for capturing streaming audio and video files"

    April 19, 2012  |   By michaelmiori

    Version: Firefox Video Download Helper 2.3

    Pros

    Captures almost all streaming video audio files. Also the "quick convert" is very useful as it allows you to pick which format to download the file with, which eliminates the hassle of having to convert after the download.

    Cons

    If you are capturing multiple files, it is sometimes confusing to distinguish which file is which because the titles of the files are often just a slew of letters and numbers, as opposed to real title of the video or music file. For example, I streamed the song "Make it Bun" by Skrillex and the title of the captured MP3 on download helper was "0pvhIAPmBtvs.128" rather than Skrillex - Make it Bun. It's not a deal breaker as I think this application is very useful, but like I said, it can lead to confusion.

    Summary

    User friendly and very useful for capturing streaming audio and video files. It is also very effective in that it does pick up most files that are streaming. I use it quite often and have recommended it to some of my friends.
