Videos are rife in various video-centered sites and social media sites. You may need to download online videos from one site now and from another site next time. However, most of the websites disallow you to get their videos, and thus there is no "Download" button available. That's the reason why you need to ask third-party tools or services for help if you want to download videos from any website.
There are three commonly-used ways to download online videos from any site:
- Online video downloaders
- Video downloader extensions
- Desktop video downloaders
If you prefer to download videos from any website in Google Chrome, you will be willing to the first two ways. However, given that more and more online video downloaders are being blocked by Chrome and video downloader extensions are being banned due to their violation of the Chrome Web Store policy, I'd like to show you a stable video downloader for PC & Mac that will help you to download any video from any site when online video downloaders or browser extensions fail.
How to Download Videos from Any Website in Google Chrome
Both online video downloaders and video downloader extensions allow you to download videos from any website in Google Chrome. Generally, online video downloaders provide more features while browser extensions free you from copying the video URL. Choose the one you like according to your preferences.
Option 1. Online Video Downloaders for Chrome
There are a plethora of online video downloaders for Chrome and other browsers that work to download video or audio files from various sites. Generally, one online video downloader only allows you to download videos from one site. That means you will need different video downloaders to save videos from various sites. For example, if you want to download YouTube videos via Chrome, you can use a YouTube Video Downloader, while if you are looking to download videos from Twitch, you can search for a Twitch video downloader instead.
As there are not many restrictions for an online video downloader for Chrome, you can use it to download YouTube videos from Safari as well.
Option 2. Chrome Video Downloader Extensions
Being similar to an online video downloader, browser extensions also support limited sites. You may need more than one browser extension to get all the videos you like for offline watching. You can go to the Chrome Web Store and find the video downloaders you need. It's worth mentioning that some browser extensions that natively support YouTube may not work in Chrome due to copyright issues. In such cases, you can go to use the same extension on Firefox to have a try.
How to Download Any Video from Any Site with One Tool
As you can see from the details above, you will need different tools to achieve your goal of downloading videos from any site. What's more, online tools are highly unstable and may fail to work unexpectedly. Therefore, I'd like to show you a versatile video downloader for PC & Mac that performs well to download online video & audio from over 1000 sites, including YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more. There are some of the things you can do with it:
- Download YouTube videos to Mac
- Convert TikTok videos to GIFs
- Download Facebook videos in HD
- Download music from SoundCloud
- Download YouTube videos by playlist/channel
Whether you want to download video or audio, from video/audio websites or social networking sites, EaseUS Video Downloader will help to download videos from these websites with ease.
To download any video from any site:
Step 1. Launch EaseUS Video Downloader on your PC. Copy and paste the URL of the video you want to download into the searching bar. Click "Search" to proceed.
Step 2. It will open a built-in YouTube page of the video. Click the "Download" button in the bottom left to parse the video.
Step 3. In the popup, you can choose for the video format and quality, and specify a location for the downloaded video. Then click "Download" to start the downloading process.
Step 4. After the downloading process finishes, you can check the downloaded video in the option "Finished."
Disclaimer: The information provided in this guide is for personal use. EaseUS is in no way collaborated or affiliated with the video-sharing site and will never approve any copyright infringement action. The end-user should be solely responsible for their behavior.
If You Can't Download Online Videos
You first need to check whether these videos are owned privately. It's known that you can't download the private videos of others due to privacy protection. If not, you should check the URL you copy and make sure it is the correct video address. Afterward, check on your network connection. A slow and unstable network may result in download failure. If you still can't download videos from a website successfully, I'd afraid that the website may not be included in the support list. In such a case, you can find a tool that supports the site to apply.
The Bottom Line
Although there are ways for you to download videos from websites using Chrome, they are not the recommended ways out. Online tools outperform desktop video downloaders when it comes to convenience. But speaking of features, stability, and reliability, desktop video downloaders win undoubtedly, no to mention that almost video downloader programs are ads-free and online tools will often bother you with ads and redirections. There is an ocean of tools available for you. If you are not satisfied with the one introduced above, pick up the one you trust to download videos from websites without worries.
