VidLoader is a desktop application designed to download and archive videos from a wide range of websites and video sharing platforms, including YouTube and TikTok. The software is available for Mac, Windows, and Linux operating systems. Its primary function is to allow users to save video content directly to their local computer in either MP4 or MP3 format. The application includes several features for managing video downloads. Users can automatically monitor specific channels and playlists for new content, enabling the archiving of entire series or regular uploads. A browser extension is also provided, which allows users to grab videos from any web page without manually entering URLs. The tool functions as a private downloader, meaning it does not rely on public online services to process requests. Typical use cases for VidLoader include building a personal offline library of educational content, saving music or podcasts as MP3 files, and archiving video playlists for later viewing without an internet connection. The workflow generally involves installing the desktop client, optionally adding the browser extension, and then either pasting a video link into the application or using the extension to initiate a download from the current page. The software handles the extraction and conversion process locally on the user's machine.
