video downloader - CocoCut and Video Controls Plus

CocoCut downloads video and records streams. We control video while you watch it, so there is no real move across: these two do different jobs.

Last checked 2026-11-07. A downloader for Chrome and Edge that catches HLS streams and records what it can't download, free with an optional premium. Check video downloader - CocoCut yourself.

Where to start​

  1. Install Video Controls Plus for your browser: Install Video Controls Plus.
  2. Keep it for downloads. To make a GIF or record a clip while you watch, read Capture and export.

Who is better off with which​

  • Choose CocoCut if you want a downloader with a recording mode for the hard cases and no account.
  • Choose Video Controls Plus if you want to watch better, not download: speed, loops, filters, notes and history in one account.
