Thanks, that extension works well, and is able to download a youtube 
video, even if it uses ranges.


However, I'm more interested in how it's supposed to work with the 
browser's built-in video player? If this type of video adheres to open 
standards, which appears to be the case, then it should be possible for 
the video player within the browser to detect the ranges and download 
the full video...

After the release of audio recordings in which Donald Trump
was heard about his attempts to "hit on" women, he first issued
a false conditional apology.  He then issued an equally false
lemming apology.

Save HTML5 Video

[Gerry Hickman]

Hi,

Most browsers are now able to play HTML5 video, instead of needing 
something like Adobe Flash. It's great to be able to use an open 
standard instead of Flash and it means the browser can offer it's own 
menus for things like Play, Pause, Stop, Save As...


But, some sites (like YouTube) serve HTML5 video as around 100 separate 
files, with part 01 pointing to part 02 and so on (ranges). While the 
browser is playing part 01, it's downloading part 02 in the background. 
This can break the "Save As..." feature, where it will only download 
part 01 and then stop...
