So our beloved Live-Stream -Downloder is of course easy and pleasant to use and offers us many rare features and options ! 💯 🥇

Also we must not forget that the average standard users of the people are not experts and do not like complicated tasks and with this growing trend of separating audio only and video only streams, we can get lost and confused between the various streams to select and be put off by having to select separate streams with unusual names .....

hence the importance of a simple operation easy out of the box like the extension " Stream Recorder" from edge store which automatically downloads the video even if there are separate audio and video streams, i.e. we hope we click and download the video directly without having to search and get lost between the names of the separate audio and video streams as for the second media player of this site (moon player):

so my request please is that the master stream given by Live Stream Downloader give us and download us a video with audio out of the box even when there are separate audio only and video only streams, because when we select the master stream, we must manually select video stream then again select manually audio stream while the master stream is supposed to provide us and download us automatically video stream with audio stream even separate because this is master stream and i think master stream should download jointly audio only and video only streams !

and if Live-Stream -Downloder does not want to use external online service to merge audio and video like for example ffmpeg online of Cat Catch:

https://ffmpeg.bmmmd.com/

so I think please for more simplicity performance and to avoid confusion, Live Stream Downloader should when it detects separate audio and video streams, Live stream downloader should, when we select the master stream which is supposed to give us a video with audio out of the box to download, Live Stream Downloader should automatically download the separate audio only and video only streams and then show a pop-up warning window at the end of the download reminding users to use potplayer which can quickly add an external audio track to the video only file (we can assign a mouse or keyboard shortcut to external audio in potplayer),

so no need anymore to transcode, convert, merge audio and video and no need for external ffmpeg online service or local cnversion program and it will makes things easier for beginners and non-experts and will make the extension even more popular, because my fear is that most streaming sites will now separate the audio from the video maybe to complicate the task for download extensions, thank you very much!
