_{update:
06/08/23 - instead of iframe, loads local JD page + url}

Usage

Go to the webpage for a hosted video or file you want and it should be added to JDownloader automatically. It's also easy to customize the script and add more (JDownloader compatible) hosts, by editing and adding them to the @include's at the top of the script.

Info

Mainly intended for those, like myself, who prefer automatically downloading/streaming files locally (and immediately streaming the locally generated *.part file with VLC, for example) rather than watching through an online player due to unstable/stalling internet connections or faster download speeds/convenience using JDownloader2.

This script requires the following to run:

Check if JDownloader is running
CNL2 requires that JDownloader is running.
Open http://127.0.0.1:9666/flash/
If A “Website” with 'JDownloader' opens, JD is running.

Optional Script
Also, you can use the following convenient code with AutoHotkey, copy/paste into notepad, save as 'jdownloader.ahk'. When you run it, it will sit in the system tray and automatically wait and click ok on windows from jdownloader that ask if it's ok to add a link or to update.
