Excellent online video downloader

Post by amethyst »

I'm editing this post because the "newer" options I've given before have given some issues over the last few days. As for now I recommend the following which seem stable and reliable with good download speed (some of them I've used for years):
https://fordownloader.com/ (new one for me but seems very good with plenty of sites)
https://allinonedownloader.com/ (very good for Dailymotion)
https://getvideo.at/en/ (been around for a long time, used it a lot over the years).
https://y2mate.com/ (also an oldie but goodie, I've used it a lot for youtube over the years)
https://9xbuddy.com/

Hi @amethyst , here (downloaders tab) you could find any good downloaders too.

Hope u find them useful.

(I want to underline the MULTIYOUTUBE DOWNLOADER because it is fantastic when you want to download all the videos hosted in one youtube channel)

Yes, there are many. I use these stuff a lot. The one I have mentioned above has been given for good reason. It really is excellent and it seems it works well for many sites.

I tried it by using this video link:
Won't download. Network error.

Bionic Puppy 64bit.
Won't use another one.

@amethyst

The website is a useful find :thumbup:

Personally, I do use yt-dlp via the command line. This only requires Python to be installed which is included in modern Puppies.

Once you become familiar with the variables, you can pick and choose the formats/filesize that work best for you.

FFMpeg also being inlcuded in Puppies can be also used easily to convert from one format to another via the command line too.

Horses for courses as they say!!

@Tippe

Try this site instead, looks like it's using the same software/engine: https://fastsavenow.com/

Perhaps it has again to do with my country and its download and copyright restrictions.
Will try the other site later.

Thanks
