Facebook Video Downloader
Paste a public Facebook video link. Pick a quality. Keep the file.
How these map to yt-dlp
Each control maps to a fixed, validated set of yt-dlp arguments on the
server. Options that execute commands or read files — --exec,
--external-downloader, --load-info-json,
--output — are deliberately not exposed, because a public
endpoint that accepts arbitrary flags is a remote-code-execution hole.
Everything here is a fixed menu, so nothing you type becomes a flag.
About this downloader
Facebook serves video in two renditions, SD and HD, and hands both over without requiring a sign-in for public posts. That makes it the most reliable platform here: no login, no bot check, and the file arrives in one piece.
- SD and HD renditions, whichever the post offers
- Video and audio already muxed, so the file plays anywhere
- Public posts only — private and friends-only videos cannot be fetched
Questions
Why do private videos fail?
Facebook does not serve them to anyone who is not signed in, and this tool has no account. Only posts visible to everyone can be downloaded.
Do short fb.watch links work?
Yes. The shortened share links resolve to the same video and are handled the same way.
Can I get audio only?
Yes — choose an audio format in the advanced panel and the soundtrack is extracted for you.
