Why do you need StreamFab?
That RTL+ series you love could vanish from the catalog tomorrow
Picture this: you have been following a gripping RTL+ crime series for weeks, saving episodes for a quiet weekend binge — only to discover that the entire series has vanished from the catalog without warning. RTL+ rotates its on-demand library constantly as licensing agreements with production houses like UFA and Constantin Film expire and shift. Free-tier content disappears especially quickly, often cycling out within weeks, while even Premium subscribers at €6.99 per month face unpredictable catalog changes.
Developed by the StreamFab team with over 8 years of video software expertise, StreamFab RTL Plus Downloader lets you save any RTL+ content permanently in 1080p quality before it rotates out. StreamFab offers 3 free downloads so you can test every feature before committing.

Keep every RTL+ show permanently — ad-free and in Full HD
Whether you are an expat missing German television abroad, a language learner studying dialogue from RTL dramas, or simply someone who wants to watch GZSZ on the train without buffering, StreamFab gives you complete control over your RTL+ content. Download shows and movies in up to 1080p with AAC 2.0 audio, saved as MP4 or MKV files that play on any device — phone, tablet, laptop, or smart TV. The ad removal feature strips every commercial break, including the heavy ad load on RTL+'s free tier that can exceed 8 to 10 minutes per hour.
Batch downloading grabs entire seasons in one click, while scheduled auto-downloads capture new episodes the moment they drop. With weekly engine updates that resolve platform changes within 24 to 48 hours, trusted by tens of millions of users worldwide and featured by technology publications including PCMag and TechRadar, StreamFab transforms RTL+ from a restricted streaming app into your personal, permanent German TV archive.

More Than Just Downloading
Save metadata to organize your RTL+ collection professionally
After downloading dozens of RTL+ episodes, finding a specific show in a folder of generic video files becomes a real headache. Which file was that Bauer sucht Frau finale? Was that RTL Exclusiv special from season three or four? StreamFab solves this by attaching comprehensive metadata to every download — show title, episode number, season, cast details, synopsis, and cover artwork are all embedded automatically.
Import these tagged files into a media server like Plex, Jellyfin, or PlayerFab, and you have a professionally organized German TV library that rivals any streaming interface. Browse by series, view episode descriptions, and enjoy proper cover art — all from your personal collection. For dedicated German TV enthusiasts, metadata transforms a simple download folder into a searchable, browsable entertainment archive.
