Stream Downloader

Stream Downloader is a software tool developed using Adobe AIR in order to help people in searching for specified videos and grab them with just a few clicks.

The installation process is over in a jiffy and brings you to a simple and clean GUI, as it consists of a few tabs which enable you to quickly access all the options available, as well as some buttons and a few panes to view different information. All user categories can find their way around it, regardless of their previous experience with computers.

First and foremost, you can easily search for any video on YouTube and DailyMotion, by simply inputting the appropriate keyword or an exclusion one. Results are going to pop up using a thumbnail view, along with a few information regarding them, such as length of video and total number of views, comments and favorites.

It is also possible to simply paste or write in the URL you want to download, keeping in mind that only the aforementioned websites are supported, so as to send it to the queue list. The latter displays items along with name, video type, status and progress.

When grabbing an item from YouTube, you are prompted to choose the quality of the video, most of the time having to choose between an MP4, FLV and 3GP format, with resolution settings. You can easily change the output location and set the maximum simultaneous downloads.

To conclude, Stream Downloader is a pretty efficient piece of software, for downloading videos from the Internet. The interface is intuitive, all tasks are performed in a timely manner and it does not hinder the computer’s performance in any way. We did not detect any errors, crashes or hangs in our tests and the quality of the output items is quite good.
