If you have download errors or detection problems read this.


Download VSO Downloader, install and run it after installation. An animated green radar will appear in the upper right hand side of the interface indicates the software is ready to detect media.  Should it be red, click on to activate the streaming monitoring.  

Navigate with any internet browser to the page with the video or audio you want to download. Play the streaming file (in the case it doesn't start playing automatically) and as soon as the media (audio or video) is detected it will appear in VSO Downloader and the download will begin. If the streaming monitoring cannot be activated (get the radar to be green) or no streaming content is being detected read this.

A balloon hint will show display each time a media is detected in the tray (bottom right of screen).
In the case you want to browse the internet but do not want files to be detected by VSO Downloader click on the radar to stop the automatic detection, it will turn red and the animation will stop.  If you want all files to be detected but only download certain ones or on your command, see the Detection settings.

Let's take YouTube. You should see something like this:
