I read through the topic explaining why the video download feature is not possible here: https://flavio.tordini.org/forums/topic/version-2-12-video-download-feature-is-gone I realize the use case I have is to get videos available for offline use.
Would it be possible to have an option on videos to make them available for offline use, that would under the hood download the video to a hidden cache directory so it can later be viewed by minitube without requiring Internet access. Would such a feature go against what you received from Google?
