Free open source application to download Hulu videos for offline viewing, intercepts and saves video streams locally
Hulu Grabber is a free and open source download manager that focuses specifically on downloading videos from the popular streaming service Hulu. It works by intercepting the video stream when you play a video on the Hulu website and saves it to your hard drive instead of playing it in the browser.
Once installed, Hulu Grabber runs silently in the background and will automatically start downloading any Hulu video you play in your browser. The downloads are saved locally so you can watch them later even if you don't have an internet connection. This makes it easy to take your Hulu favorites with you on the go.
Some key features of Hulu Grabber include:
Because Hulu actively works to prevent video downloading, Hulu Grabber employs various workarounds that may stop working at any time. The developers frequently update the extension to stay ahead of these blocks. Just be aware it may need some tweaking to keep working properly over time as Hulu makes changes on their end.
