“Elephant is the missing piece for Free Download Manager! Downloading videos has never been smoother. The extension is intuitive, making it easy for anyone to use. Two thumbs up!”

“Absolutely love the Elephant extension for Free Download Manager! It adds a whole new dimension to my downloading experience. No more hassle with video downloads - it's quick and simple. Highly recommended!”
Olivia Reynolds
“Elephant is a must-have extension if you use Free Download Manager. Downloading videos is now so much simpler, and the integration is seamless. Couldn't be happier with the added functionality!”

FDM (Free Download Manager) is an excellent tool for efficient downloading of files. With it, you can boost your downloads up to 10 times, manage them and control your traffic usage. However, FDM cannot capture YouTube videos.
To download videos from YouTube and other websites, we recommend using the Elephant add-on built on yt-dlp. This program extension seamlessly integrates with Free Download Manager and provides support for downloading content from various video-hosting platforms, particularly YouTube. With its source code available on GitHub, the Elephant add-on is free and completely safe to use.

Only really important things, we promise!
no one explains how it works and what to do, crazy. it seems you have to click add and paste link from every site, but doesnt work with all web-videos, popular sites like youtube works ok
dave, Just click the + button in the program's main window, copy and paste the download link, choose the desired location to save your file, and it will start downloading.
FDM can also automatically catch downloads from your browser while you initiate a download in your browser to download it better. For that, you need only to install the FDM extensions for your browser, the link you can find in the Browser integration of the FDM preferences.
Some websites put restrictions for download managers which can't be avoided and in such cases videos won't be downloaded.
Doesnt work for me Too

Overall Great work guys, I was planning to automate the whole YT-dlp process to download faster, but you guys already made it
Thanks a lot
It works great, I was using yt-dlp on command line till now, and that took time, now with this it take way less time,
but there are some essential things that needs to be fixed in this
1. there should be a feature of checkbox to automatically detect and select the best quality of video or audio
2. Selecting Different Encoder options should be available
PranM, Thank you for your suggestion, it will be passed to our developers. We appreciate your help in improving our add-on and enhancing its user-friendliness.
It is not working, nothing shows
