What’s New – New Features

The latest version of SurFast Video Downloader brings new features and a better experience. Here’s what’s new in v2.8.

Chrome Extension Support

SurFast Video Downloader v2.8 now fully supports the SurFast Video Downloader Helper extension for Chrome. With this integration, you can download videos, audio, and more directly from websites by simply right-clicking the content — no need to copy and paste URLs anymore.

Udemy Support

SurFast Video Downloader now supports downloading DRM-free videos from Udemy.

Please note: DRM-protected content is not supported, in compliance with Udemy’s content protection policies.

Subtitle Download Enhancements

You can now download not only the original subtitles, but also auto-generated and auto-translated subtitles. In addition, subtitles can be:

· Saved individually in SRT, VTT, LRC, or ASS formats
· Embedded as a selectable subtitle track in the video
· Burned directly into the video as permanent captions

This gives you more flexibility in how you use and share subtitles.

Auto-Parse URLs

When SurFast Video Downloader is in General mode and the app gains focus, it will now automatically detect and parse any URLs copied to your clipboard. This streamlines the download process — no need to manually paste links anymore.

Search & Download

In Private mode, you can now search for YouTube videos directly by entering keywords into the search bar and start downloading — no need to paste links manually. It’s a faster and more convenient way to get the content you want, right inside the app.
