Sometimes for copyright reason some videos can't be downloaded.

Sometimes it doesn't work on embedded videos (on a blog post, etc), but it does on the original site (the one hosting the video.

###Installation

1. Download the latest version from here.

2. Extract the folder from the zip and place it in a permanent location on your hard drive (anywhere you'd like).

3. Open Chrome and navigte to chrome://extensions/ or click on Settings (icon with 3 horizontal lines) -> Tools -> Extensions..

4. Tick the Developer Mode checkbox to enable the manual installation of extension (from outside the webstore).

5. Then click Load Unpacked Extension... and select the folder Web Noire (from step 1).
