Add big download button to Share page if enabled

If video downloading is enabled, it would be great if a big "download" button was shown on the Share page.
Clients who need to download often don't realise they must play the video, then go to the player controls and click the download button.
A big button would make it much more obvious.

Links to different resolutions of videos

It would be good if we could copy the direct links to the individual resolutions, so we can send them to clients so they can download, say, 480p, 720p, 1080p version directly.

Any new thoughts on this? I have clients that don't know they can download, as they have to paly the video first to get the download button.

hypertrophicentertainment: Most of our users use Embed or m3u8 URLs, and we have this preview page for sharing purpose and download is a part of the player itself.

Anshul The trouble is, people downloading have no idea they have to start playing the video to see the download button in the player.
The download button needs to be outside the player.
Compare to Vimeo where there is a big, clear, "download" button with resolution options.

Anshul Aditya Patadia Please can you consider this. Please look at my images in the post to see how much clearer Vimeo's is.
My clients really need a clear "Download" button, with options over which resolution/size to download (so not just downloading the biggest one automatically).

hypertrophicentertainment: We have taken note of your feedback. However, we don't generate separate versions for download and our videos don't have sound, so there are two separate files right now. So, giving the option to download based on different resolutions is not a quick thing to do.

Anshul Thanks! It would be really helpful.

It should have a dropdown so they can choose the quality/size level, too.

hypertrophicentertainment: We have different quality videos and audios separate, so it's not possible to give a combined file to users.
