Your favorite videos and audio, saved to your computer in just a few clicks.
MV Downloader makes it easy to download videos and audio while you browse. Choose your content, select the format and quality, and send the download request to the companion application on your computer.
You can download content one item at a time or collect links in playlists to download later, all through an interface integrated into the pages you visit.
What You Can Do
- Download videos or audio only: choose what you want to save for each download.
- Choose the format: MP4 or MKV for videos; MP3 or WAV for audio.
- Adjust the quality: videos in 360p, 480p, 720p, 1080p, or up to 4K; audio with 128, 192, or 320 kbps options.
- Create your own playlists: collect content from different pages into playlists with custom names and icons.
- Download in batches: send every item in a playlist for download without having to reopen each page.
- Organize before downloading: edit titles, modify playlist items, and remove anything you no longer need.
- Use links from other websites: paste the content URL into the panel opened by the floating button.
- Personalize your experience: choose the theme, language, and which buttons you want to display on pages.
Available quality options depend on the original content and the selected format. Selecting 4K, for example, does not upscale a lower-resolution video to 4K.
Where It Works
MV Downloader provides download buttons alongside videos on the following platforms:
YouTube, X/Twitter, Instagram, Bilibili, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, Threads, and Pinterest.
On other websites, use the floating button and paste the content link. Whether the download works depends on whether the website and content are supported by the companion application.

Download Engines
The MV Downloader companion application uses yt-dlp as its primary engine for video and audio downloads. If it cannot complete a download, the application tries alternative engines, including Streamlink and You-Get. Support for individual websites and content depends on the available engines.
You can also add compatible external engines that support the yt-dlp command-line interface. We thank the authors and contributors of the projects used.
Each engine is governed by its own license:
