Frequently Asked Questions
Universal Downloader automatically detects playable video and audio content on a webpage—especially useful when a direct link can't be extracted. Unlike Video/Image Downloader that require copying and pasting a media URL, this feature works by simply opening the page; the system will then automatically scan and display downloadable resources. It's easier to use and works across a wider range of websites.

Click the "Download" button in the detected result to start recording. You can click "Stop" at any time to end the recording and save the segment as an .mp4 file. If the live stream is still ongoing, simply click"Download" again to continue capturing the remaining content.
Some websites use advanced encryption or proprietary formats to protect media content. In such cases, Universal Downloader may not be able to detect the video. We're continuously improving compatibility, and you can also try using our "Video/Image Downloader" as an alternative.
It's likely due to unsupported video codecs. For example, some MP4 files use the HEVC (H.265) codec, whichisn't compatible with all media players. We recommend using VLC Media Player, which supports a wide range of video formats.
