Hello, thank you so much for the great awesome fantastic FileCentipede download manager ! 💯 🥇

I have request please : copy the m3u8 of the link of the download link of the detectd video to open th url adress directly in vlc player, or potplayer or kikiplay or moonplayer or implay.....

beacause yesterday I finally find how we can playback a video without having to wait for the download to finish, i make new issue to share my revolutionary sensational discovery that changes the game in the world and i make a suggestion for improvement to Mr @filecxx to better integrate this exceptional titanic downloader with media player like vlc and potplayer....

My discovery is to copy the m3u8 link and put it in potplayer or vlc or smplayer and we can playback the streaming video without waiting the end of the download and we can increase the network buffer cache in vlc, potplayer, smplayer....for smooth playback even if internet is very weak !

i tested and confirmed my discovery with these 2 extensions who let us extract and copy url of embed videos :

https://github.com/chandler-stimson/live-stream-downloader

https://github.com/puemos/hls-downloader

This solves the problem of non-sequential downloading because sometimes we couldn't preview the video because there are many fragments being downloaded....

that's why I have a suggestion to better integrate and speed up the process please, add a button to FileCentiped "copy m3u8 url adress of the detected stream video "and send the stream url to potplayer or vlc open the m3u8 link in vlc or potplayer", maybe these open source extensions can help integrate this rare, revolutionary feature to speed up the process without the need to copy and paste the link into media players for smooth playback of the streaming video without the need of heavy web browser and playback lags even with weak internet !

My discovery is useful for people who have a weak or old laptop I am currently using a 2012 Windows 7 laoptop and the video playback stutters lag seen I have an old OS, old cdec, old processor.....also it can be useful to those who have weak internet because you can change the parameters of the buffer network cache in VLC, Potplayer, Smplayer..... in addition discovery allows you to save bandwidth and ecology, often in animated films, movies ....there are boring passages and we can skip them with my discovery, and thank you again Mr @filecxx for this great downloader manager 🥇 💯

EDIT UPDATE :

Hello, may be it can help to implement preview feature, just to say i tried the "preview video" feature of "cat-catch" resource sniffing extension, it works but cat-catcher also offers an option to choose a local media player like vlc or potplayer to preview the video and I tried but it doesn't work....I even used external application button with cat catcher but I can't automatically preview the video with vlc or potplayer.... .but when I copy the url from Live stream download and hls-dowoader extensions, , it works !
