Frequently asked questions
Which MP4 quality should I choose for Dailymotion videos?
Pick the largest size your phone or screen can show, or a smaller one to save storage and data. Free downloads go up to 720p; a Quick Pass unlocks 1080p and above where Dailymotion offers it.
Will the Dailymotion MP4 play on my phone, TV and editing software?
Yes. We use the widely compatible H.264 codec wherever the site provides it. A few very high resolutions use HEVC (H.265), which most modern devices play.

Why does my Dailymotion video say it is unavailable?
It may be blocked in the region our server is in, or removed. Some publishers limit where their videos can be watched.
Can I save Dailymotion audio as MP3?
Yes. Pick MP3 to extract the audio track from the video.
Is it free to use?
