works well for player.vimeo, seems to be the only one that works for this type of url, pause and resume download function supported which is incredibly nice, lovey for downloading low quality because I am always running out of storage space, and most other downloaders will allow large file size or 480p and up, which is not what I want. 240p and 144p would be even better, since I just want to see a general picture of what is going on, but detail is not really important. Would be nice if it opened in new tab, instead of new window. would also be nice to see file size and video time length. 5 stars because it gets the job done. It's slow but it it's trusty. Set it and forget it, then download.
