What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A two-part web video downloader: a browser userscript (Violentmonkey/Tampermonkey) extracts video stream URLs from supported sites, and a Python daemon downloads and merges them with FFmpeg. It supports Bilibili, iQIYI, Tencent Video, MGTV, WeTV, and iQIYI International, including a generic HLS downloader for other sites.

Use cases

  • download bilibili videos
  • download iqiyi episodes
  • save tencent video streams
  • download mgtv shows
  • download hls m3u8 streams from websites
  • download videos with subtitles embedded
  • batch download multi-part bilibili videos

When to choose

  • you need to download videos from Chinese streaming sites like Bilibili, iQIYI, Tencent Video, or MGTV
  • you want VIP-quality downloads for content your own account can legitimately watch
  • you need subtitle downloading and merging into video files
  • you want a cross-platform Python-based downloader with multithreaded segment downloading

When to avoid

  • you expect to bypass VIP or paywalls - the tool only downloads what your account can watch
  • you need a GUI-only tool - it requires running a Python daemon and installing browser userscripts
  • you need support for sites outside the six supported ones and they don't use HLS streaming
  • you need a project with an explicit license for commercial or redistribution use
