Frequently Asked Questions

MPD (Media Presentation Description) is the manifest format for Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), an open standard maintained by the DASH Industry Forum. It describes video and audio segments that FlowPick can download and merge into a single MP4 file — no FFmpeg needed.
HLS uses M3U8 playlists and is Apple's standard defined in RFC 8216, while DASH uses MPD manifests and is an open standard. Both split video into segments for adaptive streaming. FlowPick supports both protocols equally.
The extension automatically detects MPD/DASH streams on webpages, saving you from manually finding and copying stream URLs. It also provides batch download, smart filtering, and in-browser fragment merging.
Yes! FlowPick is completely free with no hidden costs, subscriptions, or premium tiers. All features — smart sniffing, local merging, batch download, and smart filtering — are available to everyone.
Absolutely. All processing happens locally in your browser. We don't collect, store, or transmit any personal data or browsing history. Zero data collection, zero tracking, zero server uploads.
FlowPick currently supports Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Firefox support is coming soon.
No. FlowPick merges streaming fragments entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. No external software, plugins, or command-line tools are required.
Yes. FlowPick supports batch downloads with parallel connections. You can add multiple streams to the queue, pause, resume, or cancel them at any time.
Try downloading in a different quality level. Some streams may have corrupted segments. You can also try using VLC's "Always Fix" option to repair the file.
Some websites use DRM protection, encrypted streams, or custom protocols that are not publicly accessible. FlowPick works best with standard DASH streams and direct video files.
Yes. FlowPick's smart filtering lets you filter segments by size, type, or duration. Short ad segments are automatically identified and can be excluded from the download.
FlowPick is designed for personal use with publicly accessible content. Please respect copyright laws and terms of service of the websites you visit.
Download speed depends on your current internet connection, the source server or CDN, network congestion, segment count, and any connection limits imposed by the source. FlowPick does not impose a fixed speed limit.
If automatic download is available, the completed file is saved to your browser's default Downloads folder. If the page displays a Save to disk button, click it and choose a destination in the system save dialog. Browser-private OPFS files are temporary and are cleaned up after a successful save.
DASH usually keeps video and audio in separate tracks. Select both tracks so FlowPick can merge them into one file. If the stream is protected by Widevine or PlayReady DRM, it cannot be downloaded.
MPD is the manifest format used by MPEG-DASH, while M3U8 is used by HLS. Use the M3U8 downloader when the stream URL ends in .m3u8.
The MPD may require cookies or a referer, block cross-origin requests, use relative URLs, or be protected by DRM. Try opening the video page with the FlowPick extension so the request context is preserved.
