The latest update of our WordPress core plugin now has this option. It is available as:
[ziggeodownloads video_token]
It works by providing you with a simple dropdown which once opened will grab the token and search for all available streams.
As streams are found it will do the following:
- It will show download option for Default Stream
- Download option for Original Stream
- Download option for additional streams
Next to each stream, it will also list its resolution. For example:
Default Stream [640x480]
Please note that this is only available on our Github repo with version 3.0 available here: https://github.com/Ziggeo/ziggeo-wordpress-plugin, which is not yet supporting all the improvements we have in mind at which time it will be updated on WordPress repository as well.

Ziggeo: Thanks! Can I safely use v3.0 on my site, or should I wait for the full release? Do you have an estimate on full v3 release?
Ziggeo
Jeff: Good question Jeff. Per our tests everything was/is working properly on WP 6.1. We always do tests before we push changes to Github.
Still as always best to create a backup first.
The version 3 also brings updates to the templates, so the backup should also include DB update.
By updating to latest there is a small chance that something might not work right in some specific use case however the really important thing is that you will not get update information once the plugin is updated on WordPress repository as you would already be using the "same" version, so you would need to keep an eye on updates (for example here and our changelog).
In terms of updates, WordPress is just one of our integrations that we support, so there is usually a higher ETA for updates.
Goal of v3 is to offer faster and smoother WordPress experience which it already has built in through the lazy load of our system. This also involves changing how our templates are structured and used however also expending the documentation we have for our WordPress plugins.
Best ETA would likely be Q1 2023
