Why a video download may fail
Check links, access restrictions, source formats, and the 24-hour completed-file lifetime.

Check the source link
Confirm that the original link points to a video, not a profile or image-only post. For supported YouTube channels and playlists, use Batch / playlist with expansion enabled. Multi-video Instagram or Facebook posts may return separate video entries in batch preview.
Understand access restrictions
Deleted, private, age-restricted, and region-limited videos may be inaccessible. Some sources require server-side authentication. A public-looking link does not guarantee extraction. Only download content you own or have permission to save. Public visibility is not permission to reuse a video, its soundtrack, or other copyrighted material. The tool does not circumvent privacy settings, age checks, regional restrictions, or other access controls. Some sources may be accessed through an operator-managed platform session; that session is not your account and grants no access beyond what it is itself permitted.
Retry thoughtfully
Temporary source failures can resolve later. Try another available format or retry a failed job. Avoid repeatedly submitting duplicate jobs when a progress check reports a network error. Do not share account passwords to troubleshoot a failed link.
Check completed file links
Completed-file links expire 24 hours after completion. Save your file before expiry; availability during that window is not guaranteed. Files are physically deleted only while the cleanup worker is running, and deletion can fail, so a file may remain on the server after its link expires. This service is not permanent storage. After expiry, submit the original source again if you still have permission and it remains accessible. A new request is not guaranteed to succeed. If your browser blocks automatic saving, use the visible Save file button.
