The flow stays clear from copying a link to choosing a quality. When a platform exposes separated streams, the browser merge tool is ready.
02
Parse available formats
See complete videos, video-only streams, and audio-only streams, with clear labels for HD formats that need merging.
03
Download or merge locally
Download a complete file directly, or download video and audio streams separately and merge them into an MP4 locally.
Why use HDVideoDL
The homepage now explains the real workflow: parsing, search, format selection, privacy boundaries, and local merging in one place.
Fast parsing
Requests are logged and cached, so repeated links can show available formats faster for frequent download workflows.
Clear quality choices
Complete files, video streams, and audio streams are grouped with size, protocol, and type details.
No video storage
The server extracts metadata and format links only. It does not proxy, host, or re-upload the videos users download.
Browser local merge
When HD video and audio are separated, the built-in merge tool can process files in the current browser.
Admin-controlled platforms
Enabled sites, promoted display, direct-link mode, and separated-stream policy are controlled from the admin side.
Operations-ready data
Parse requests, cache hits, and failures are visible in admin, leaving room for rate limits, ads, and platform governance.
Supports common video platforms
Promoted platforms come from the enabled admin configuration, so operations can control which sites are parsed and shown.
