Bulk Media Downloader Extension

The \"Bulk Media Downloader\" extension is a downloader that collects all sorts of media file resources (images, audio, and video) and allows you to batch download them with the default download manager of your browser or a custom download manager.

-----
Please note that Bulk Media Downloader does not grab YouTube links.
This is NOT a YouTube downloader
-----

With this extension, you can bulk download media files. Just open the grabber window by pressing the toolbar button. Now allow the extension to fetch media resources. If a media file is in a tab that has already been loaded, you need to refresh the tab for the media link to appear in the grabber window.

After the desired media link is detected, press the pause button to ask the extension to stop monitoring your network

In oppose to the other similar extensions, this extension has zero impact on your browser performance when the grabber window is closed. Monitoring the network resources only occurs when the grabber window is open and there is an \"R\" badge notification in the toolbar area.

----
Please note that Bulk Media Downloader is not responsible for media content that you download. We suggest checking the media copyright before downloading them.
