![]() Since VDU is no browser extension but a seperate window program, it need to be started when you want to download videos. By default it is started when any browser is started. You can change this behaviour in the settings. In this case or if you have an uncommon browser you need to start VDU manually by doubleclicking the blue arrow icon on your desktop. Then a smaller blue arrow icon appears which is attached to your browser or floatable on your screen ( ->settings). VDU runs now. When you click the smaller icon the VDU menu opens. |
![]() Start VDU and click to the VDU icon to open the menu.

How to download as mp3
![]() There are only a few sites where you can download MP3 files directly like https://www.soundtaxi.com. When playing an MP3 file VDU is detecting it and shows a yello download button. MP3 files are much smaller than video files so please make sure the setting "Find only videos files which are smaller than xxx KB" is not too big. 200KB should be a good value for MP3 files. |
