A WebExtension that redirects browser downloads to the Motrix Download Manager via its RPC interface. It works with Chrome, Edge, Opera, and Firefox and requires Motrix to be running in the background.
Use cases
- route all browser downloads through Motrix download manager
- capture downloads from Chrome and send them to Motrix
- use Motrix as the default downloader in Firefox
- connect a browser extension to Motrix via RPC secret
- replace the native browser download manager with Motrix
When to choose
- you already use Motrix and want browser-integrated downloads
- you want faster or more reliable downloads than the browser's native manager
- you use Chrome, Edge, Opera, or Firefox and want automatic download interception
When to avoid
- you don't have Motrix installed and don't want to install it
- you need the extension to launch Motrix automatically (it can't)
- you use a browser not supporting WebExtensions
