Could you build this?
Partial The browser extension UI and native messaging boilerplate are straightforward, but media sniffing across complex streaming protocols (HLS/DASH/m3u8), stream decryption/reconstruction, and native companion execution require non-trivial systems work.
What it would actually take: The product combines a WebExtension (using webRequest APIs to intercept network requests and parse media manifests like HLS and DASH) with a native Windows companion app (written in Go, Rust, or C#) communicating via Native Messaging. The native tool orchestrates FFmpeg under the hood to download, decrypt (where non-DRM), merge, and transcode audio/video segments. Building a reliable sniffer requires deep understanding of streaming protocols and native OS process orchestration.
