I understood it was more flexible than its name implied!

that you gave. ClipGrab could not find a downloadable video. So I used
SeaMonkey to view that link and was able to play the video.
I then right-clicked on the video and selected Copy Video Location from
the popup context menu. ClipGrab recognized that URI as a downloadable
video.
I think you need to use the correct URI, not the URI of the Web page but
the URI of the video.

site. That is quite different from viewing the video within a browser.
ClipGrab uses youtube-dl for downloading videos. ClipGrab is NOT an
add-on to any browser; it is a stand-alone application. The issue is
getting the correct URI into youtube-dl for it to download a video.
T cited the URI
<https://rumble.com/vepb2p-yann-tiersen-comptine-dun-autre-t-guitar-cover-amelie-movie-soundtrack.html>.
However, that is the URI for a Web page in which a video is embedded;
it is NOT the URI of the video itself. I viewed the rumble.com URI in
SeaMonkey with HTML5 Media enabled (normally disabled in my
configuration). I started the video, still in SeaMonkey. While the
video played within SeaMonkey (and also while the video was paused), I
placed my cursor over it. I right-clicked and got a context menu. One
of the items in the context menu was Copy Video Location, which I
clicked. That gave me the URI
<https://sp.rmbl.ws/s8/2/r/j/n/E/rjnEb.caa.1.mp4?u=3&b=0>, for which
ClipGrab (using youtube-dl) successfully downloaded the video. I tested
the download by playing it via VideoLAN (VLC), and it proved to be a
good .mp4 file.
If later versions of SeaMonkey than my 2.49.5 (e.g., your 2.53.6) no
longer have Copy Video Location, that is indeed another reason why I am
not upgrading.

SeaMonkey did not require the use of youtube-dl. The HTML5 Media
capability inherent in SeaMonkey (without any add-on) was sufficient.

That's interesting. When I look at ClipGrab's website, I see no mention

youtube-dl seems to have capabilities ClipGrab does not, which seems odd
if the latter is a wrapper for the former.
(The fact that CG doesn't mention YT-DL certainly isn't conclusive, I
know - for example, a huge number of video utilities are a wrapper for
ffmpeg, but don't mention it on their websites.)
Mayayana has created a GUI wrapper for youtube-dl, though I can't now
find it on his jsware site - maybe it was never completed to the extent
he wants to make it public/findable. (I've found I usually use the

No problem in FF 83.0: However, FF88 has made some changes and
so this may not be possible but let's see how things go from here.
