HiDownload (Phoenix)
All-in-One Stream & Video Downloader for Windows
Teams and creators use HiDownload when a page plays fine in the browser but never offers a simple Save as button. Open the site, let the built-in sniffer list real media URLs, then queue a download—no guessing ffmpeg flags for every new platform.
Typical jobs: archive an online course before access expires, keep a sports replay you are allowed to record, or pull a podcast series for a long flight. The app is built for repeatable workflows, not one-off experiments.
Under the hood it handles today's adaptive streams (M3U8/HLS, DASH/MPD) plus plain HTTP files. You stay in control: preview the sniffed URL, pick quality, then download.
What HiDownload Helps You Do
- Save webinar or training recordings for offline review
- Global Download Relay Service: solve the problem of
regional restriction, provide servers in various places to help you download audio and video - Capture live event streams while they are still on air (where permitted)
- Download an entire playlist or channel in one batch job
- Sniff hidden M3U8/MPD links the player never shows in the address bar
- Merge HLS segments into a single local file without manual scripting
- Resume long jobs and manage multiple captures from one queue

Streaming Windows Media has met its match
Its a great download manager which downloads streaming media better than every other download manager.It downloads the following protocols to my knowledge: mms://, .asx, .asf, streaming WMV. That is all I have fed it as far as streaming content goes. It also downloads normal content that isnt streaming.
Works better than DAP!
Download speed at the very highest speed it could have... upto 30kbps download speed for 56k ... how much more on dsl.
Terrific for saving streaming media!
If you're looking for a way to save those RealMedia or Windows MediaPlayer streams (audio or video), look no further. This product does the job superbly!
This is a very good product!
It can record RealMedia and windows Media streaming with multi-threads, marvelous download speed. I also love the URL Helper, it is a excellent tool, if you want to capture streaming media, you MUST try it.
