VSO Downloader Ultimate is one of the most functionally developed applications against the background of analogues, so let's consider it in more detail. A special program for downloading videos from social networks and almost any online resources allows you to convert the downloaded file for all kinds of portable devices, smartphones, tablets, game consoles, TVs, and so on. You can choose the format and quality of the content, as well as adjust the audio bitrate. There is a function of gluing media files.

For connoisseurs of increased privacy, there are a number of tools for working with VPN and proxy servers. The software will reliably protect and hide all personal data. Supported protocols include HTTP, HTTPS, RTMPT, and RTMP. Certain sites can be blacklisted. When ads and banners are detected, their complete blocking is available.

Software from VSO Software allows you to download the desired video in AVI, MP4, FLV, 3GP, XVID, VOB, MKV, WMV and many other extensions. Upload files individually or in batches. After saving the content to the computer memory, you will be notified about it from the system tray. A very useful option is considered to resume content in case of any PC failures or problems connecting to the network. Any clips can be recorded on CD/DVD optical media. There is a function of automatic tracking of links to download files in the browser Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, IE, Safari. And you won't have to copy the URL every time and paste it into the main application window. True, here, like all utilities, there are positive and negative sides. The main disadvantage of GUS Downloader Ultimate is only 7 days of trial version, as well as the lack of updates from the official website of the developer.

An interesting feature is the downloading of movies and clips on a schedule. This option has Free Download Manager- Another multifunctional program. Combines a universal download manager and an offline browser. Save the video separately or download the full package of your favorite content. It is worth noting the use of the BitTorrent protocol. Incomplete downloads can be viewed in the integrated media player. To download any file, just copy the link with the right mouse button, then paste the address into a small floating window on the desktop.

  1. Run the resulting file. We have it downloaded to the desktop, you can have it in the Downloads folder.
  1. After launching the Savefrom.net installer, you will need to accept the license agreement by clicking on the appropriate button.
  1. Next is an important step: check the box next to the browser you want to use to download videos from sites, then uncheck all other boxes. If this is not done, a lot of “junk” software will “pull up” on your Windows PC, which you will then get tired of deleting. As a result, click on Next.
  1. If your browser is currently running, the program will prompt you to close it. This must be done in order to successfully modify system files.
  1. That's all, we just have to click on the button that says Finish.
  1. Open your browser. In our case, this is Google Chrome. In the screenshot, you see a notification that a new extension has been added. I click on it.

Attention: in other browsers, for example, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Safari or Yandex.Browser, the process is similar. There you also need to install the proposed plugin. For example, if you are looking for an extension for Opera to download music and videos from VKontakte, then this is exactly what you need.

  1. We confirm our plans by clicking on the indicated line.
  1. Click Enable Extension.

The correct installation process is indicated by an icon that appears on the right side of the top bar of the browser.

Well, let's move on to the most interesting, downloading videos from any site.

Using the program

For more clarity, we will demonstrate the main part of Savefrom.net's capabilities and show how to download clips from any social networks.

Download videos from YouTube

Let's start, of course, with YouTube. After all, this is where the most interesting video is.

  1. We go to the page of the video that interests us and press the button marked in the screenshot below.
  1. Downloading videos from the site will start instantly, as it happened in our case.

This plugin downloads content at high speed and without any restrictions. The only thing he can't do is the maximum FullHD resolution.

Music and videos from VK

Let's now try to download a clip from VKontakte. And this is done like this:

  1. We find the video you are interested in on the pages of the VK social network and click the download arrow that appears here.
  1. If the download is for the first time, you will have to give the program access. If you don't want to do this all the time, press Always Allow.
  1. A small window will open in which you will need to select the video quality.

As you can see, the program for downloading videos from VK does its job perfectly. Next, let's look at how to download a video from the Odnoklassniki website, because it also has a huge number of users.

classmates

So, in order to download a video from Odnoklassniki, we do the following:

  1. We find the video that we want to get on our computer and click on the neat orange arrow in its upper left part.
  1. Choose the quality and format of the future video.

Ready. The clip will be on PC soon.

Instagram

Now let's look at how to download videos from Instagram. What's more, it's so easy to do. On each photo or video, you will have the arrow shown below. All we need to do is click on it. The download will start immediately.

Facebook

Savefrom.net feels great on Facebook too. From here, he is also able to download music or video. As well as in other social networks, a tempting green arrow will appear on each media. Click on it and the video will download from the site.

Like VKontakte, here you have to choose the desired quality.

The plugin is suitable for any operating systems of the Microsoft Windows family. These are Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and, of course, Windows 10.

So, now you see that with the help of the program described above, you can easily download videos from literally any site on the network. We'll look at a few more options.

VKMusic

This application has the widest functionality and, unlike Savefrom.net, is not a plugin.

Download and installation

To download VKMusik to your computer, you need to visit the program's home page. We press the big green button, which we circled in red in the screenshot below.

  1. Run the file downloaded from the site.
  1. At the first stage, just click Next.
  1. Specify the installation path. If there is no need to change the default directory, just click Next.
  1. We click on the same button.
  1. We remove each of the checkboxes so as not to miss digital "garbage" on our computer and click on Next.
  1. We are waiting for the installation of our application to finish.
  1. It all ends with a click on Finish.

The program will start automatically. Consider how to use VKMusic.

Using the program

In order to download audio or video from sites that require authorization, such as VKontakte, you need to log into your account. To do this, click VKontakte - Change account.

If you opened the program for the first time, then instead of the account change item, you will see the Login button.

Consider uploading a video using YouTube as an example. As you can see, a lot of other sites are also supported here. So, enter a search query, open the list and select the desired item.

Then click on the search icon. We have marked it in the screenshot below.

A search result will appear, and if we hover the mouse over any file, a small preview window will open, and we can understand what the video is about.

Important: search results are not generated immediately, in order for the list to be filled to the end, you need to wait a bit.

To start downloading, double-click on any video with the left mouse button. The first time the program will prompt you to specify the download path.

You can also choose one of the suggested formats. Naturally, the higher the resolution, the larger the file itself, and, accordingly, the download time.

It's so easy to download videos from almost any site. The VKMusic program allows you to download music, videos and photos in whole albums.

Url Snooper

  1. Click the Next button.
  1. Skip the next screen by pressing the same button.

  1. Click on Install and run the installation.
  1. We are waiting until all the necessary files are uploaded to the appropriate directories.
  1. Again we poke in Next.
  1. We complete the process by clicking on the button indicated below.

As soon as the last button is pressed, the program will start automatically. We will briefly explain how to use it.

Usage

So the application works like this:

  1. Launch Url Snooper by clicking on the shortcut created on your desktop.
  1. We refuse to buy the application, with its main function: downloading videos from any Internet sites, it copes without it.
  1. When the program starts, it will immediately start scanning the traffic in order to detect a media stream. Our task at this time is to start playing any video or song online. As a result, the snooper will intercept the stream and allow you to save the file.

Ummy Video Downloader

Let's move on to another application for downloading videos from YouTube and other sites. It differs in that it is able to integrate into the button under each video of the network and download content even in FullHD.

You can download Ummy Video Downloader on its official website.

  1. To do this, click the button that we have highlighted in the picture below.
  1. We launch the installation file of the application.
  1. We accept the license by clicking on Accept .

  1. We launch our loader, and it automatically picks up the copied URL. Select the quality and click Download.

By the end of the tests, we used up all the free attempts, so we could no longer show how the program works.

VDownloader

Another candidate for the role of a video downloader from any sites is this application. Let's figure out where to download it and how the software works.

Downloading the program

  1. On the next page, click on the item shown in the picture.
  1. We start downloading the application by clicking on Continue with free version .

Attention! Refuse to install unnecessary software, otherwise another "garbage" will "settle" on your PC!

  1. As a result, the installation itself will begin. We need to wait for it to complete.

Everything, the process is completed, the last time we press the button.

Well, by tradition, let's look at how to work with VDownloader.

How to use VDownloader

The interface of the program is in front of you.

You can work with the application in different ways. Either we copy the link from the site and paste it here, or use the built-in search. In both cases, in the end, click Download.

The advantages of VDownloader include a wide range of supported sites and downloading videos in FullHD.

How to download videos

With content loading, everything is also simple here:

  1. We copy the link to the desired video, go to our program and click Insert.
  1. We choose quality. As you can see, FullHD is not here, unfortunately. But it supports converting the video to different formats. When all settings are completed, click Download.

Video blogs are gaining popularity, which is quite natural, because, depending on the subject, you can find almost any information in them - from master classes to lectures and entertainment content.

It is because of such a wide application of video that it may be necessary to download it in order to watch it later, insert it into a presentation, etc., but most sites do not offer such an opportunity.

In this article, we will consider programs for downloading videos from any site.

Choice

The easiest way to consider the situation is with an example - this is the largest video hosting with many useful files, but it is impossible to download them.

The same situation takes place on most foreign and many Russian sites, including, for watching movies online.

Therefore, a lot of programs and applications are being implemented in order to download videos.

They can be of three types - installed software, online services and browser extensions. Distributed for free or paid.

In addition, some of these services offer several video options - in different quality, with one or another audio track, with or without subtitles.

A number of programs are even capable of downloading videos only with loss of quality.. All these factors and features must be considered when choosing the best option for yourself.

The principle of their operation is approximately the same in any case. When you open a page with a video, the software recognizes which fragment is a video file and accesses remote servers for downloading. Some problems may arise when working with the format - some programs download videos only from, others from, and still others from both types of player.

Specifications

In order to make the most optimal choice, and download the program that will be convenient to use, it is necessary to take into account many characteristics.

To simplify this selection process, below is a table with the main characteristics of the software.

Key features of video download software

It is always worth considering that programs can have individual features of working on different PCs, with different types of video files, etc.

UmmyVideoDownloader

UmmyVideoDownloader- this is the same program that offers to download and install SaveFrom, described above. You can even say that this is its extended version, since the program has all the same characteristics and functions, but also a few additional ones. It also works stably, user-friendly interface, simple menu.

  • It imposes its own antivirus, the automatic installation of which can only be canceled by force;
  • It has a not too simple and clear interface, it may be incomprehensible to an inexperienced user;
  • It does not always work stably, besides it takes up quite a lot of space on the computer's hard drive.

https://youtu.be/btP4IM-0VbQ

The program has conflicting reviews from users:

“It works stably only with VKontakte, and normally with Youtube”, “There are a lot of functions, but they are poorly implemented”, “finally I found a program with normal functionality and for free.

your PC, and theoretically, they can be restored from there.

This program gives access to these caches, making the download process as simple as possible.

A significant advantage is also the fact that this method allows you to "pull out" not only video, but also files of any other type.

  • The utility does not require installation, it is mobile - just write it to a memory card in order to use it on any PC;
  • There is a function of “gluing” parts of videos, since caches often do not store them entirely - there are only fragments of a particular video;
  • A fairly simple and stable program - it works well, without glitches and freezes.
  • An unusual format that users do not expect to see when downloading such software;
  • Complex controls and a confusing interface that will not be easy for a beginner to understand;
  • Unnecessary complication of the very type of program functioning;
  • Quite rarely, such software allows you to download a full-fledged video of proper quality, since it is not completely stored in the cache, and even fragments that can be “glued together” are not all there.
