Quality & Format

What video qualities are available?

Quality depends on what the platform exposes for that public link. FastVidl offers the best available stream, often up to HD, when the source allows it.

Does FastVidl add a watermark?

FastVidl does not add its own watermark. For TikTok, FastVidl fetches the version without the TikTok watermark when available, though third-party watermarks embedded by the original creator may still appear in the source file.

Why does my downloaded video look blurry?
Platforms compress uploads. Read why downloaded video quality is bad and how to fix it for practical tips.
Why does my downloaded Facebook video have no sound?
This is often a codec or split-audio issue. See Facebook video no sound quick fix.
Can I save the sound from a TikTok video as MP3?
No. Paste the public TikTok link into the TikTok Video Downloader to save the full MP4 video without the TikTok watermark — we don't offer a separate MP3 audio download.
Is there a file size limit?

There is no strict FastVidl cap, but very large files (over ~2GB) may take longer depending on your connection and device storage.
