What works and what does not
Public videos only. Some publishers restrict downloads by region.
Choosing a quality
Pick the largest size your screen needs. Smaller files download faster and save storage; the highest quality is best for editing. Free downloads are capped at 720p, and a Quick Pass unlocks 1080p and above.
If the download fails
Check that the Dailymotion video is public and not deleted, copy the link again, and try once more. If it still fails, the site may require a login or restrict the video in your region, and it cannot be downloaded.
