Everything MAX can do
From a direct MP4 to a multi-track stream, MAX keeps detection, track selection, processing, and downloads in one local-first workflow.
Streaming support
Handle HLS, DASH, and live streams that browsers cannot save as ordinary files.
HLS Streaming (.m3u8)
Download HTTP Live Streaming content with automatic quality detection and reliable segment handling.
DASH Streaming (.mpd)
Choose a quality while MAX handles separate video and audio tracks for you.
Live Stream Recording
Record supported live streams while they are broadcasting and save them as local files.
Original Quality
Copy streams without re-encoding, preserving the quality served by the source.
Smart Deduplication
Hide duplicate streams so the same quality does not fill the list more than once.
Container Auto-Detection
When selected tracks are incompatible, MAX switches to a suitable container automatically.
Downloads and history
Keep downloads organized, visible, and recoverable from one window.
Direct Media Downloads
Download MP4, WebM, and other direct media files while preserving available metadata.
Playable Partial Files
Keep and play the media already saved when a download is interrupted.
Concurrent Downloads
Run up to 10 downloads at once and control the limit in settings.
Detailed Progress
See speed, saved size, HLS segment count, percentage, and ETA while a download runs.
Download Queue
Queue as many items as you need. MAX processes them within your concurrency limit, even after the source tab closes.
Download Notifications
Turn browser notifications on for completed or failed downloads.
Download History
Keep up to 200 items locally, with quick stats, file access, and re-download actions.
Automatic History Cleanup
Clear old history automatically on the schedule you choose.
Direct File Access
Play a saved file, reveal its folder, or remove it directly from the MAX interface.
Audio and subtitles
Choose, extract, and combine the tracks you actually need.
Audio Extraction
Save an original audio track or convert it to another supported format without inflating the bitrate.
Subtitle Extraction
Save available subtitle tracks as SRT, VTT, ASS, or their original format.
Multi-track Muxing
Combine selected video, audio, and subtitle tracks in one file, or save them separately.
Interface
See what MAX found, narrow the list, and download without guesswork.
Preview Thumbnails
Use media-based previews to confirm you found the right video before downloading it.
Detailed Media Info
Check quality, FPS, resolution, codecs, audio channels, tracks, and estimated size before downloading.
Search and Filters
Search by title, filter by format, and sort by detection time, duration, or name.
Detection Hints
The extension icon turns blue when media is found; its badge shows active downloads.
Light and Dark Themes
Choose the theme you prefer from settings.
Compact Layout
Collapse sections, switch views, and keep the controls you use close at hand.
Privacy and performance
Local processing, no telemetry, and no remote conversion service.
FFmpeg n8.0.1
A custom FFmpeg build handles demanding stream, remuxing, and extraction cases.
Idle Disconnect
The desktop app disconnects after 60 seconds of inactivity and reconnects when MAX needs it.
Session Persistence
Found media stays available while you navigate within the same site, avoiding repeated detection work.
Lightweight Extension
The extension stays under 200 KB and avoids heavy runtime libraries.
Windows, macOS, and Linux
Optional native desktop builds are available for x64 and ARM systems.
Plain JavaScript
The extension is written without a large UI framework or bundled dependency stack.
Zero Telemetry
No analytics, tracking, or collection of your browsing and download activity.
Local Media Processing
Media processing runs on your machine instead of a remote conversion service.
Web Store Policy
MAX is built around Chrome Web Store policies and applicable laws.
Install MAX
Everything above is included. No account, ads, or artificial limits.
