Personal Download Manager (PDM)

🚀 Supercharge your browsing experience with high-speed download acceleration, seamless link interception, and intelligent stream capture. Personal Download Manager (PDM) connects your Chrome browser directly to the high-performance PDM desktop engine. Say goodbye to sluggish single-stream browser downloads and lost network progress. PDM dynamically divides files into multi-threaded parallel segments, maximizing your broadband bandwidth up to 10x faster. ============================================================ ⚡ KEY FEATURES AT A GLANCE ============================================================ 🔹 Multi-Segment Turbo Acceleration Bypass server-side bandwidth caps. PDM dynamically divides large files into up to 32 parallel connections, reassembling them on-the-fly for blazing download speeds. 🔹 Smart Browser Interception Never miss a download. PDM automatically detects file downloads (archives, images, documents, software packages, ISOs) and routes them seamlessly to the desktop engine. Fully customizable file extension triggers and size thresholds. 🔹 Universal Media & Stream Grabber Effortlessly capture video and audio streams playing on active web pages. PDM sniffs live HLS (.m3u8), MPEG-DASH (.mpd), and direct media feeds, presenting instant download options in various resolutions. 🔹 One-Click Batch Link Grabber Need to download multiple resources at once? Right-click anywhere on a webpage to extract all hyperlinks, filter by file type (.zip, .pdf, .mp3, etc.), and dispatch them all to your queue in one click. 🔹 Advanced Queue & Bandwidth Management Organize your tasks with priority queues, pause/resume capability, scheduled download times, and global speed limiters to keep your work uninterrupted. 🔹 Authenticated Session Preservation Captures session cookies and referrers for seamless downloading from password-protected member zones, private cloud drives, and enterprise portals without session expiry errors. ============================================================ ⚙️ HOW IT WORKS (COMPANION APP REQUIREMENT) ============================================================ ⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: This browser extension functions as a bridge companion to the Personal Download Manager desktop application. The extension communicates securely with the local desktop client via Chrome's Native Messaging API (com.pdm.download_manager). The heavy lifting—multi-connection socket management, file chunk stitching, and disk I/O—is handled safely and natively by the desktop application. ============================================================ 🔒 PRIVACY & SAFETY PLEDGE ============================================================ Your data and privacy are 100% sacred: • ZERO Remote Telemetry: We do not track your browsing history, analytics, or usage data. • 100% Local Inter-Process Communication (IPC): All intercepted URLs and cookies travel exclusively between Chrome and your local desktop app. • No Third-Party Cloud Servers: No remote server logs, no external analytics SDKs, and zero cloud dependencies. • No Data Monetization: We never sell, share, or monetize user data. ============================================================ 📋 QUICK 2-STEP SETUP GUIDE ============================================================ 1. Install the PDM Desktop Application: Ensure the Personal Download Manager desktop app is installed on your computer (Windows, macOS, or Linux). 2. Register the Extension: Launch the desktop app once to automatically register the Native Messaging host manifest, or use the in-app "Register Browser Extension" toggle in Desktop Settings. That's it! PDM is now ready to accelerate your downloads. ============================================================ ⚖️ STORE POLICY COMPLIANCE ============================================================ In strict compliance with the Google Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies and YouTube Terms of Service, this extension does NOT support or facilitate downloading copyrighted or protected video streams from YouTube or any platforms protected by DRM.
