I wouldn't need such a tool usually, but when I watch content in my native language, the sites are clearly overused, and the video blocks every 5 seconds. On Android I use LJ Video Downloader, and I'm wondering if there's something for Windows.

It works better, stays up to date, has better error reporting, has better documentation, is more trustworthy and isn’t gonna become abandonware in the near future.

It’s probably also faster for you once you get used to it: (if you’re on a webpage with a video you wanna download) ctrl-l, ctrl-c, (open your command prompt, for me it’s win-r -> “cmd” -> enter), yt-dlp ctrl-v.

I can’t think of anything more chill than pasting the url. It’s got incredibly good defaults.

I tried using it but the problem is the video it's always a generic page. When I use LJ on Android it lets me open the page from a browser and detect the video after I select season and episode on that page

Get the uri for your video somehow. Theres about a million ways just pick the one you like the best.
