If you want to download .m3u8 streams, audio and video files embedded on websites, go give it a try and tell me what you think!
Yay I was looking for something like this! Thanks!

You’re welcome! Happy to help!!
Is this like IDM?
What’s IDM?
After looking it up, yes it’s a bit like IDM but has less features (like it’s not separating which files are audio, video… yet?), however it’s available on mobile as well so there’s that
It’s nice but the UI could be prettier imo.
What’s some specific elements of the UI you dislike and how would you improve it?
I’ll look on my PC later was on my phone

I can’t tell if this is actually a new project or if you forked, extended, and changed the license of an existing MPL 2.0 project. The latter would be a bad thing.
You have a commit titled “Full rewrite!!” but I’m not about to go do a comparison to see how “full” it is. If it is indeed a complete clean reimplementation then I would recommend making it a new project so it doesn’t look like you took someone’s FOSS code and relicensed it for yourself.

This started as a fork but was fully rewritten from scratch. No code is used from the original repo, so I also chose to make the license more premissive.
See this commit!
You have some good points but if I made a new repo from scratch, it would break many links, including links in the add-on’s store page, the add-on itself and search engines. It would also kill every watcher/issue/PR etc so I don’t think it’s really a good idea.
If you have a clean solution to solve this I’d love to hear it!

Full rewrites do happen. The first commit of PiKVM is a copy of my repo. I was referenced there for a long time before eventually being removed, and I’m pretty sure by then my code had been fully rewritten.
Though I did find it funny when LTT covered them and said they complained about a copycat who wasn’t giving them credit 😆
