Simple Video Downloader is a Chrome extension that simplifies the process of downloading videos, subtitles, and audio by injecting download buttons to players. This extension enables users to download videos directly and embedded within web pages, providing easy access to multimedia content.

With Simple Video Downloader, users can initiate downloads effortlessly. When on a video playback page, a resolution button appears in the upper right corner, allowing users to select the desired resolution for downloading. Additionally, in the video thumbnail list, a download button appears in the upper left corner, providing a convenient way to download videos with specific resolutions.

The key features of the Simple Video Downloader extension include on-demand injection for download buttons, minimal resource consumption, and minimal permissions requests. For users seeking high-resolution video variants not available through injected buttons, the extension supports the use of an external ffmpeg tool.
