Videoff is a browser extension designed to help users detect and archive videos from web pages. It operates on Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Firefox browsers, supporting both desktop and Android platforms. The tool enables deep video detection, including content within the DOM, shadow DOM, iframes, HLS/DASH manifests, and dynamic video players, allowing users to find videos that are embedded or dynamically loaded on a page.
Once detected, videos can be stored directly in a local library within the browser. This means that all archived videos remain on the user's device and are accessible offline, without requiring cloud storage. Playback is managed by a built-in player integrated into the extension, ensuring that videos can be watched without leaving the browser environment.
Videoff features an adapter-based architecture, which allows for site-specific support to be added with minimal effort. If a particular website is not yet supported, users can report it, and the development team can add compatibility for that site with just a few lines of code. The tool emphasizes user control and privacy, as videos are kept locally and not uploaded to external servers.
The extension is intended for individuals seeking to keep and organize videos they encounter while browsing, provided they have the legal right to do so.
