How can I forbid/stop an extension in my website?
I have videos in my website and would like to have an idea on how I can stop download feature.

Generally speaking - you can't.
You can't dictate what browser extensions will or will not work on your site.
Neither can you completely forbid video downloads.
I mean, if a user can perceive content of any type, she will be able to copy this content (text/video/sound).
You can only try to make it harder, but you can't really protect it against a skilled user in the browser.
One popular way is to make content visible only for certain users (subscribed, logged-in, etc.).
