We are happy to announce the release of WhaleDown Desktop version 2022.3.0. This version ships with lots of new features and bug fixes.

The most exciting feature is supporting HLS(m3u8) streams which stream videos and audios separately. You may have already noticed that some videos downloaded do not contain audios. From version 2022.3.0, WhaleDown can download and merge videos and audios seamlessly. As a result, the Experimental Downloader option is removed from the downloader's preferences view.

In this version, we add some new interceptor rules to detector to support DASH(mpd) streams. For DASH streams, WhaleDown will download videos and audios sequentially, then merge them after downloading finishes. We also updated the DASH downloader to diplay the downloading progress and status of videos and audios.

There is a new option Download without asking in the detector. When it is checked, WhaleDown will download videos without showing a confirming dialog. And a Download All button will be displayed on the top toolbar of the detector. (Thanks to @Mike_Toasted)

Today we are excited to announce the new version 2021.4.3, an Apple Silicon only version.

To support Apple Silicon, the technology stack used by WhaleDown updated the minimum system requirements to Windows 10 and macOS 10.15. Therefore, we have to drop support of Windows 7, macOS 10.13 and 10.14.

In the following years, we will continue to develop and support macOS Intel version until it is dropped support by Apple.
