There is a Chinese platform like YouTube, called Youku.

I was trying to find a way lately to download videos from this website. However, most of the videos don't load outside of China. The online tools I use for YouTube don't work except the SaveVideo.me, which is terrible slow. A video of 10MB needs about 30min.

I need a desktop software where I can add the link of the video from Youku and it will download it in reasonable time.

Platform: Windows or Linux (I have dual boot).

Optional: Add a link of a Youku channel and download all the videos from the user.

You can download videos from Youku using youtube-dl. It's a Python program for downloading videos or music from many sites.

You can use the Google Chrome extension Unblock Youku to access Youku web services from outside mainland China.

    I tried this addon, but it only works to watch the video only. How then can I use it to download it?

I know software named StreamFab All-In-One(https://www.dvdfab.cn/downloader.htm), which works well on most streaming platforms, but I don't know if it works well in China's platform. Maybe you could have a try with its free trial version
