Description

Describe your suggested feature

I know we can copy links and download with an external downloader.

But some sources have a lot of links and it takes time to load.

So if there was an external downloader support the links would load in the background.

Also there could be downloading rules like watching rules. (When it adds upto 10 it downloads automatically)

Currently, when we press the download button, it automatically downloads the best quality like 4k, which is not good for phones.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Begin by reviewing the existing download-button flow and the watching-rules behavior, then define whether the goal is background external downloading, automatic download rules, quality selection, or all three; done should include an agreed scope and acceptance criteria.
