Could you expand on what you mean by screen recording? I ask because Amazon is slow processing now also.

SF is no longer able to direct-download content from Amazon, Netflix and a lot of other providers since the January 25th DRM shakeup. They knew it was coming, but didn't hire developers who could crack the new DRM. Because they still want to sell this product, they decided to make the new versions of it into a screen recorder while claiming it's a downloader, even though that's not what we purchased.
Basically, rather than downloading your video directly from Amazon or Netflix, it re-encodes it, which means it streams it and records it at a high rate of speed at your desired resolution, then reformats it. It's that processing part that takes a long time, as it's dependent on your CPU, memory speed and your type of drive. The result will NOT have the same video or audio quality as a download. If the video has ads, that increases the odds that the video will go out of sync with the audio the longer it plays.
The last version that actually downloaded from Amazon, Netflix et al was 6.1.6.7., so if your Amazon or Netflix selection is older content (technically was added to the site before 1/25/24), reinstall that version and see if you get lucky. My experience is that if it was added to Amazon after October '23 you'll just get a failure to downoad. Unfortunately, that version won't download any Amazon series episodes, it can only detect the first one.
