I'm doing an MIT MicroMasters on edX and this tool saved me when I had a 12-hour flight with no WiFi. Downloaded all my lectures the night before and studied the entire trip.

About
edX delivers world-class lectures from MIT, Harvard, Berkeley, and dozens of other top universities, but audit access is time-limited, courses get archived or removed, and verified certificates cost real money. Without saving the lectures while they are available, they may never be accessible again. This extension makes it simple. Navigate to any edX lecture page, click the download button, and the video saves as an MP4 at full resolution straight to your computer. Taking a full course? Queue up an entire week of lectures and let the extension download them one after another while you do something else. Automatic retry picks up where it left off if your connection drops. Subtitles download alongside the video when available, and everything organizes automatically by course name and module. The extension runs quietly inside your browser with no cloud uploads, no tracking, and no extra software to install. Students building a permanent study library, researchers archiving reference material, and professionals working through a certificate all benefit. Lectures belong on your hard drive, not behind an expiration date.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this work with edX courses from any university?
Yes. The extension works across all edX partner institutions including MIT, Harvard, Berkeley, and others. It detects videos regardless of which university published the course.
Can I download an entire edX course at once?
You can queue multiple lecture pages for sequential download. Navigate to each lecture, add it to the queue, and the extension processes them one by one with automatic retries if the connection drops.
What video formats and quality levels does it support?
Downloads are saved in MP4 format at the highest resolution available from the edX player, typically 720p or 1080p depending on what the course publisher uploaded.
Does it download quizzes or graded assignments?
The extension focuses on video lectures and subtitle tracks. Interactive elements like quizzes, peer-graded assignments, and discussion forums are not downloadable.
Will my edX account be affected?
The extension simply captures video URLs that are already loaded in your browser. It does not interact with edX APIs or modify your account in any way.

Our corporate training team uses edX for professional certificates. Being able to download and archive course videos for internal reference has been a huge productivity boost.

The batch queue feature is what sold me. I queue up an entire week of CS50 lectures and let it run overnight. Everything is neatly organized in folders by module.

123movies Downloader
123movies Downloader is a purpose-built Chrome extension that tracks down the hidden HLS streams powering 123movies mirrors and turns them into clean MP4 files. It recognises the moment a video starts playing, captures the source, and keeps quality identical to what you see online so buffering and pop-ups never ruin the copy you save.
Downloads run in resilient chunks with automatic retries, making two-hour films as reliable as quick clips. A clear status bar walks through scanning, fetching, and merging so you always know whether the stream is still downloading or already processing the final MP4.
Activation is handled with a simple email and lifetime licence key. After unlocking, just open a mirror, press play, and click Process Stream to watch the extension assemble a finished MP4 directly in your browser’s downloads folder without touching external servers.
Keep the tab open while it works, remember that DRM-protected platforms stay off limits, and consider a dedicated browser profile if you prefer running high-permission extensions in their own space.

Alpha Porno Downloader
Alpha Porno Video Downloader zeroes in on alphaporno.com video players so you can save clips for offline viewing in a couple clicks. It scans each page for hidden MP4 and HLS manifests, surfaces every quality option, and lets you decide exactly what lands in your downloads folder.
Concurrent downloads mean you can queue multiple clips at once, watch progress bars inline, and keep browsing while the extension finishes its work. A right-click shortcut and compact popup deliver quality selection, speed indicators, and discreet desktop notifications when each file wraps.
Licence activation takes seconds and settings stay local, so nothing leaves your browser beyond a quick licence check. The extension only runs on AlphaPorno domains, keeping the rest of your browsing untouched and your saved copies private.
Keep the source tab open until the merge completes, remember it cannot grab DRM-protected streams, and consider splitting long sessions into batches so your hardware can stitch complex HLS videos without slowing down.

Beeg Video Downloader
Beeg Video Downloader automates the HLS-to-MP4 conversion that keeps most Beeg videos locked to streaming. It detects the player as soon as it loads, captures the hidden playlists, and gives you a clean list of quality options so you can archive clips in the resolution you prefer.
A guided popup displays bitrate, estimated file size, and stream type before you download. Once you start, an inline progress manager tracks segment speed, percentage, and ETA while background workers stitch the MP4 together with retries whenever a chunk fails.
The extension keeps everything local—licence details, quality presets, and downloaded files never leave your browser. Desktop notifications and a right-click shortcut make saving multiple videos at once as simple as queuing them and returning when the alerts fire.
Activation requires a one-time licence and it is worth letting each tab stay open until processing completes. HLS conversion takes a little CPU time, but you get lossless MP4 copies without juggling developer tools or command-line scripts.
