I wouldn't need such a tool usually, but when I watch content in my native language, the sites are clearly overused, and the video blocks every 5 seconds. On Android I use LJ Video Downloader, and I'm wondering if there's something for Windows.

You can't always use the dev tools. Sometimes the sites have JavaScript that detects when you open the dev tools and then lock stuff up more.

yeah right... btw theres an about:config item on firefox that fixes one of the glitches sites use to block devtools. (the paused on breakpoint thing)
