Do you have an issues in step 1?
If so, could you please explain your issue in details?
I have no issue in step 1, what is next
Step 2: Open the special “URL” (See the screenshot above…)
This link is available inside, if you press the “Download” button.
For example – dailymotion.com/embed/video/xcv6dv
Then press the bookmarklet (in your Bookmarks Bar) to continue.
Next, choose the format to save…
i’m using a laptop…i don’t know what does it mean choose the format to save..because i can’t find anything
Hi lina,
Check the file extension in the file name (just in case).
Or rename file to – videofile.mp4
Or just add to the file name – “.mp4” (without the quotation marks and without the spaces).
thanks. I can save
ok. I tried to use this on firefox with dailymotion. I ended up with the video playing in a new tab. Where on the computer is it supposed to have dl to? I can;t find anything anywhere that looks like the file I was trying to dl.
Hi,
To complete the process, you should press the bookmarklet (in your bookmarks bar) after you open a special link in a new browser tab.
Please, share your page URL here or via feedback if download links are not displayed.
i keep getting server error when trying to start downloading. what do i do??
Hi jake,
Thank you for your message.
Could you please share your page URL (here or via feedback) which has this issue?
For example this one is available to download – dailymotion.com/video/x1yjw42
Maybe the DM server was temporarily unavailable. You can try again later.
hi,
not able to download video from dailymotion.

Hi nursab,
Actually this video is from “Hulu.com” ( player.hulu.com/express/60337432 ).
The “Hulu” site – is not supported.
Hi,
I tried to download this: dailymotion.com/video/x2c813m
Firstly I couldn’t drag the savevideome to my bookmark bar. I had to add it as a normal bookmark.
Secondly when in a tab with the new URL for my video (dailymotion.com/embed/video/x2c813m) and pressing the Savemevideo bookmark button I am simply redirected to the original https://savevideo.me/ page and nothing happens! This is very frustrating and your help would be much appreciated.
Hi Cocoa,
I checked it out. It works fine.
It seems that you added the bookmark “as a simple URL”…
You should add the “bookmarklet” with the “special code” instead of the “URL” bookmarks.
See the screenshot – prntscr.com/647t24
What browser do you use? Chrome? Firefox? Safari? Opera?
Many thanks for your swift response. I use Chrome.
I pasted the code in the bookmark’s URL but It still doesn’t work: I see the following error message “Could not find any download links or site not supported :-(“.
Hi again,
I tried dragging the words with the embedded code in the bookmark bar again and for some reason it worked! Although I would like to understand why, I am very pleased. Many thanks !
ok ;-)
i want to download a video;
however,it appears that
” Could not find any download links or site not supported :-( “
Hi gimmy,

gimmy, You can download your video using the old way – via “mobile device” (smartphone or tablet…) or “Internet Explorer browser”)

Hi yusuf,
Your video is not available because this video has been removed (Content removed).
I downloaded the other remove content before but this time it’s showing Could not find any downloadlinks or site not supported
yusuf, Yes. Now, any video which has the status “Content deleted/removed” is not available to download because DM server removes completely such video now. Yes. It was possible before changes. But now, DM has improved its system.
u have any suggestions how can I download it.
yusuf, No. Unfortunately, you can not download the video, which has the status – “Content removed”.
But you can try to find a similar video to download.

I was not able to download this video from the link

It said “Could not find any download links or site not supported :-( ”
Please help
Hi kn,
Fixed. Please try again.
I used to be able to use this site perfectly.
But now i noticed that some dailymotion videos needed vpn to be able to view in HD.
However, if i used the bookmarklet in vpn it returns to the original https://savevideo.me/ page.
Anyway you can help me with it? Thanks.
Hi jack,
It seems that the issue with “VPN”…
You can watch step-by-step video with the use of the “Bookmarklet” above.
Thanks.
I tried to download this video from Dailymotion and it won’t work: dailymotion.com/video/xyrfsg
The link looks right, what’s wrong?
Hi Sarah,
Actually this video is from “Hulu.com” ( player.hulu.com/express/60013625 ) but embedded in the DM website. So, this video is located at “Hulu.com”.
The “Hulu” site – is not supported.
I submitted an issue but never received a response. I will try here.
I have the bookmarklet in Safari 10 and also in Firefox 49.0.1 running macOS Sierra 10.12
When downloading a video on Firefox, everything works fine. However, on Safari I can only get as far as right clicking on the quality of the video, selecting “Download Linked File As…”.
Once I do that, the download immediately stops with: “Zero KB of ? – You do not have permission to access the…”
I can not read the rest of the message, it can’t be found in Finder. Trying to find the file in Downloads results in:
“Safari can’t show the file “****.mp4” in the Finder because the file has moved since you downloaded it.”
Again, it works fine in Firefox but not in Safari. Please help.
Hi rjb,
Thank you for your message. Sorry for late reply.
It seems that you use private mode (Private Browsing) in Safari browser.
If so, try to turn off the private mode (Private Browsing) in Safari, and then try again.
More information – https://support.apple.com/kb/PH21413
Firefox browser has the same issue when using a private browser mode.
You can also try to clear “Сache” and “Сookies” in Safari browser and then try again.
I am not using Private Browsing in Safari.
I have turned off all browser extensions in Safari, restarted Safari and it still doesn’t work.
The “Сache” and “Сookies” in Safari browser have been cleared, as well.
So far, it only works in my Firefox browser, which by the way, has all extensions on, and still works fine.
