## What it is
A Python-based desktop application that resolves the real video file URLs from Chinese video sites (Youku, Tudou, LeTV, Sohu, Bilibili, AcFun, iQiyi) and downloads their segmented video files. It ships as standalone GUI apps for Mac and Windows with quality options like standard, high, and super definition.

## Use cases
- download videos from youku
- download bilibili videos
- download segmented video files from chinese streaming sites
- get real video source urls from iqiyi
- download acfun videos in hd quality

## When to choose
- you need a simple GUI app to grab videos from supported Chinese video sites
- you want to study how these sites' video URL encryption worked historically

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool, since video sites change their encryption and this project stopped updating around 2019
- you need YouTube or non-Chinese site support
- you need automatic merging of downloaded video segments
