puemos/hls-downloader
This system is a browser extension for downloading and processing media streams, specifically supporting HLS playlists and direct URI inputs. It manages the full lifecycle of media jobs, including fetching, decrypting, and muxing audio and video content using client-side FFmpeg. The architecture is modularized into a background service handling disk-backed processing and a modernized popup interface for user interaction, all managed through a centralized Redux store.
