Multiple Videos on one page

Open ModProg opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When downloading multiple videos from a single page, I always have to open the files afterward to check which is which. And also cannot know which is the right one to download

Describe the solution you'd like Add e.g. an index signaling in what order the videos appear in the DOM. I guess one could also try extracting a "title" from the surrounding text elements, such as h* above the video, but an index would be good enough for me.

Describe alternatives you've considered Another option would be to e.g. introduce a right click menu entry that can be triggered on the exact vide you want to download. (While this seemed like the better solution from an UX perspective, it is probably also more complex)

Additional context If #63 was introduced, this would also allow setting a better name than just the index manually during download.

I have the same problem. Index may not be the best solution because order in dom may be irelevant to rendered order.

Better solutions IMO:

  • display total video time
  • display thumbnail, use the video poster
     <video poster="https://whatever/preview.jpg/" ></video>
