The Stream Detector is a browser extension for Mozilla's Firefox web browser that lists stream URLs that it detects on pages in its interface. These URLs can be copied directly or copied as ready made commands for tools such as yt-dlp or FFmpeg.

Using the application is simple and straightforward. Just install the extension in Firefox to get started. It adds an icon to Firefox's main toolbar that highlights available streams and provides interaction options when it is activated by the user.

The extension supports several stream formats according to the description:

This addon provides an easy way to keep track of M3U8/MPD/F4M/ISM playlists and VTT/SRT/TTML/TTML2/DFXP subtitles used by Apple HLS, Adobe HDS, MPEG-DASH, and Microsoft Smooth Streaming streams.

Twitter and Facebook are blacklisted by the extension by default, and the developer notes that the extension may not work on major sites because of the use of proprietary technologies.
