HappyGet2 requires Chrome extension to be installed on my desktop thereby limiting its usability. I wish to schedule videos from download station independent of my desktop so that I don't need to keep the desktop switched on while it is been download.

QGget has the same behaviour as HappyGet.

Download Station will be more useful if it can work independently.

I don't understand why this is an issue. What Operating System are you using?

You don't have to: Once a download job is submitted to Download Station (by the Download Station WebUI, Qget (Windows/OS X/iOS, Android), ...) the download happens on the NAS independent - your desktop, your mobile phone, or tablet can be switched off.

If there not a way where I can add YouTube url directly without a laptop?

What can be downloaded directly from Download Station?

You should be able to access https://XXXXXXXX.myqnapcloud.com:8081/hg2/ via the Webbrowser on any of your devices, if you install HappyGet2 on your NAS. HappyGet2 simply submits your YouTube request to Download Station to do the actual download for you.

I already suggested this, but you completely ignored my suggestion.

i use freedownloadmanager from my pc to download youtube

happyget is still useful if you need to download to your qnap if you are offsite without access to your own storage, so you would remotely download to your qnap via happyget using only a browser to access it (assuming you had previously setup remote access to it)

Otherwise i'd just use FDM and store it at any location i pick for it
