How to download videos from VK: 4 simple ways

I recently digitized family videos shot back in the 90s. It turned out that they only had boring feasts! So that you don’t repeat my mistake, I decided to collect the most successful ideas for shooting family videos, which years later your grown children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren will watch with great pleasure.

This article will also give you specific family video ideas that will inspire you to create your own family video collection. If you are ready to order such a shooting, then at the end of the article you will find some tips that will make your video a real family treasure.

Downloading from the mobile version of the site

The easiest way to download a video clip from VK is to use the mobile version of the site. This option is suitable for those who do not save videos to their computer very often and do not want to install special programs or browser extensions. The method consists of only three steps: find a video, open it in the mobile version of the site and download. Read detailed instructions below.

Open the VK page with the video you want to download and go to the mobile version of VKontakte. To do this, just add “m.” in the address bar of your browser. before vk.com.

You can also immediately open the mobile version of the m.vk.com website and use it to search and download the required clip.

As a result, the video page will have a URL something like m.vk.com/video8434083_167126008 if you download the video clip from the video page. If the video is posted in your news feed, on a user's wall, or you decide to save it from a conversation, the link will look a little longer.

Now all you have to do is right-click on the video and select “Save video as...” from the context menu that opens. After that, select which folder you want to save the video in, specify its name and click the save button. That's all! In less than one minute, you downloaded the video file you need to your computer.

One of the positive aspects of this method is that it works on both computer and smartphone. The sequence of actions is the same for all gadgets.

I would consider the disadvantages that using the mobile version of the social network you can only download those videos that were uploaded to the VKontakte servers. That is, videos added to VK from any video hosting site, for example, from YouTube or Vimeo, cannot be saved.

How to add a video to VKontakte

The social network VKontakte, in addition to a platform for communication, is also a video hosting site, where there is a wide functionality that allows you to work with video. So any video uploaded to social media. network, you can add to your video collection without making astronomical efforts.

to add any video to your VK page , even if it is hidden from everyone except you. In the first case, when you hover over the video preview, a cross will appear in the upper right corner, and when you click on it, the specified video will automatically be transferred to your page.

The second method involves adding a video directly from the video viewing window; the corresponding button is located at the bottom of the video.

Adding VKontakte videos from third-party sites (Youtube, Vimeo, Rutube. Coub and others). In order to share a video you saw on a third-party resource with friends or simply save a video you like, you do not have to download the video file and upload it to social media. net. You just need to go to the “Add video” tab, then select the line “Add via link from other sites” and in the window that appears, insert a link to the video you are interested in. The link is the address of the line that appears when you open a video on a third-party site.

After VKontakte processes the link, a video preview, description and settings will appear in the window. The description of the video, taken from the uploaded video, can be changed at your discretion, you can also indicate who will see the video and the need to publish the material on your wall (if such an action is necessary).

When copying a link to a video into a line, sometimes the line “Video service is not supported or the link is incorrect” may appear. Most likely, you inserted the address not of the video, but of the page on which it is posted. In this case, go back to the original file and click on the service icon in the player (for example, YouTube or Vimeo). After this, the page with the original video will open, now you can safely copy the address in the browser line and try again. Also, problems with video insertion may arise due to the fact that the author of the video may have prohibited the publication of the material on a third-party resource. In this case, a message will appear: “This video is not available for playback via VKontakte. You can contact the author of the video with a request to allow its embedding, or download it to your computer and upload it to VKontakte as a video file.”

It is worth considering from which sites it is possible to upload VKontakte videos ; if you do not find the site you need in the list, then you will not be able to insert the video.

List of supported video hosting sites:

It is also worth noting that you can add a video from Youtube to your videos or attach it to your wall in another way, directly on the page of the video you are watching. To do this, you need to click the “share” button, which is located under the video, and find the VK icon, which is located first in the list for users living in the CIS countries.

After clicking on the social icon. network, a standard video adding window will pop up in which you can choose where you want to add the video (to your wall, in a video recording, or both). Also in this window, you can choose with whom you want to share the published video: with group members, your friends and subscribers, or send the video as a private message.

Adding a video to a community

In order to add a video to a group, many administrators first duplicate the video to their profile, and only then to the community. But everything can be done much simpler; to do this, you need to select the VKontakte entry you are interested in, open it, click on the “more” button, then “export” and copy the direct link in the window that appears. This video address should be inserted into the text field of your future entry.

Online services

For anyone who found the first method too inconvenient, I recommend paying attention to special online services that will help you download any video clip from VK, YouTube and many other sites using a link.

Hello, friends! There hasn't been an option to save a track you like since...

GetVideo.org

A very convenient service that allows you to quickly and conveniently download any video from VK and other social networks without installing additional programs or browser extensions. When downloading, the service provides the user with several video formats and resolutions to choose from.

The process of downloading a video consists of three simple steps.

1. Find and open the desired video on VK or any other social network, and then copy the URL from the browser address bar.
2. Go to getvideo.org, paste the copied link into the special field and wait for the service to process it and provide you with the formats available for downloading.
3. Select the video file format and resolution that suits you, click the “Download Video” button and select the folder on your computer where you want to save it.

A distinctive feature that sets it apart from similar services is the ability to not only download video clips, but also search for them. Just enter your search query in the same field in which you inserted the links to download video files. The site will find hundreds of videos for you, which you can immediately save to your PC.

GetVideo.at

The online service works on the same principle as the site described above. It has a nicer interface and slightly different functionality: there is no search option, but it is possible to download audio by extracting it from a video. May be useful in case of temporary problems with getvideo.org or simply as an alternative.

The video clip is downloaded using a similar scheme:

• copy the link to the video,
• go to the getvideo.at service,
• paste the link and download the video file of the required quality.

The website has more detailed instructions and an example of downloading a video with screenshots, so there shouldn’t be any difficulties.

Among other video formats, GetVideo.at provides links to download exclusively the musical part of the video in mp3 format. Unfortunately, this feature does not work with all video clips.

Homemade porn is the most popular section of adult videos, the authors of which are ordinary people, both from large Russian cities and from the outback! Nowadays they fuck a lot every day, so you shouldn’t be surprised that the category is filled with new scenes of private sex on amateur cameras every day!

Browser extensions

For people who often need to save various videos to their computer, I would recommend installing a special browser extension. With its help, you can get rid of unnecessary actions like copying links and switching to special services. This approach will save a lot of time.

SaveFrom.net (best way)

Savefrom.net – this extension is one of the oldest and most popular on the Russian-language Internet. It supports a variety of audio and video formats and works with almost all known video hosting sites. Savefrom.net also works as an online service for downloading via a link, but recently the site has had difficulties with VK, so to save videos from the social network you need to use a browser extension.

You can find SaveFrom.net on add-on websites for Firefox and Opera, but for some reason the popular downloader is not available in the online extension store for Google Chrome. The best solution would be to download the extension from the official website. The installer will automatically add the plugin to all popular browsers on your PC that you select during the installation process.

During installation, uncheck the boxes next to the items offering to download additional programs from Yandex if you do not need them. To avoid installation errors, I recommend closing all browsers first.

After installation is complete, launch your browser. You will receive a notification that the plugin has been added. For further work, click the “Enable extension” button.

Now under each video there will be a “Download” button. Click on it, select the quality and the folder on your computer where you want to save the video.

Apparently, the extension is not compatible with Google Chrome. In this browser, when you click the “Download” button and select the quality of the media file, you must additionally hold down the Alt or Ctrl key.

VkOpt

VkOpt is one of the most multifunctional and popular extensions for VK. Among its other functions, there is the ability to download music and videos. VkOpt supports a huge number of browsers. In addition to the standard Opera, Google Chrome and FireFox, the extension supports browsers such as Safari, Maxthon, SRWare Iron and many other Chromium-based builds.

VkOpt can be searched on browser add-on websites, but it is much more convenient to download the extension from the official website - vkopt.net/download. The installation process is no different from installing other browser plugins.

After installation, the VkOpt icon will appear in the browser menu (to the right of the search bar) and a new item will be added to the VKontakte menu. Go to the extension settings and make sure that the “Download video” option is checked.

Now that the plugin setup is complete, you can proceed to downloading videos. This extension is intended exclusively for working with the VKontakte social network, so downloading videos from other sites will not work. This drawback is more than compensated by the advantages that the extension provides for VKontakte users.

• You can download a clip of any quality – the plugin has no restrictions.

• To download, it is not necessary to open the video - a save button appears on each video in the video catalog when you hover the cursor over it. This allows you to quickly save a large number of video files to your computer.

• VkOpt allows you to download broadcast files from VK Live - I have not seen such a function in any other extension. The files are downloaded in m3u8 format - this is a playlist, not a video clip. With its help, you can watch the broadcast from a video player installed on your PC, but do not log into VK.

The procedure for saving videos using VkOpt is typical for similar plugins: select a video, click the download button, select the quality and storage location on your computer. But the download button itself is located in an unusual place - to the right of the videos, under the “Close”, “Collapse” and “Hide/Show” playlist buttons.

So what should I do?

There are four main reasons why a video might become unavailable.

1. The sender may have hidden the video from you. Perhaps he did not mean anything bad, but simply hid the video from those who are not friends. Or from everyone except specific individuals. Or he even decided that he would save all the videos for himself. You will have to negotiate with the sender to give you access.

2. The video has been deleted by the sender. Typically, this happens when everyone has already looked at it - when the sender clears his collection . Most likely, you have already seen this video. If you didn’t have time, you’ll have to look for a similar video or accept the fact that you’re late.

How does a video search work?

3. The video was deleted at the request of the copyright holder. It’s unpleasant, of course, but it happens. This usually happens when “spoiler” episodes of TV series or illegal copies of expensive films are leaked online. As a rule, films made by small companies are removed less often - simply because even pirated downloads bring small studios the fame they sorely lack. In this case, you need to go to the cinema and wait for this film to be shown there.

4. Video is blocked. A very bad script. This happens in situations where there was something prohibited in the video. It doesn’t necessarily contain pornography or extremist appeals - it may very well be that in the video they were just smoking without a caption at the bottom stating that tobacco is harmful.

VKMusic program

Programs, unlike browser plugins, provide much more functions for downloading videos. At the same time, they are less susceptible to malfunctions that can occur on online services with a large flow of visitors.

It is extremely important to install verified programs downloaded from the official website, as you can run into a fake, the use of which could threaten the theft of your VKontakte profile password and login.

The only program I can vouch for is VKMusic. The program has been on my laptop for many years, and during this time there have been no complaints: the antivirus has never complained about it, the program is distributed absolutely free and performs its functions flawlessly. In addition, the developers regularly release updates.

You can download the installation file on the official website - vkmusic.citynov.ru. During the installation process, VKMusic will offer to install additional software from Yandex on your computer. Be sure to uncheck unnecessary programs so as not to clutter up your computer.

When you first start, you will need to enter data from your VKontakte account. This is a prerequisite for the program to work. I have been using this program for more than 7 years and I can assure you that no one will steal your data, so you can safely enter your login and password for your page.

Despite its name, VKMusic works not only with VK and downloads not only music, but also videos. There are several ways to obtain a video using the program.

Method 1: Copy the video link, paste it into the search field and press Enter. The program will offer you all resolution options available for download. Select one of them to start downloading.

Method 2: You will most likely never use the above method because the program will give you a pop-up window with a download button even before you paste the link into the search box - right after you copy the page URL from video. Click the “Download” button and select the required video quality.

Method 3. In VKMusic, open the “VKontakte” menu and select “My videos”. The program will display the entire list of videos that you added to your collection. You can download one, several or all video clips at once - just select the required ones with the mouse and click the “Download” button.

Method 4. Find the video directly in the program. To do this, enter a query in the search field and click “Search VK”. Then select the required video file and click the download button.

By default, all video files will be saved to the “Videos” directory on your computer. You can change the save folder in the program settings.

Software products for downloading videos from VK

The unavailability of downloading videos due to resource overload is excluded when using special software products.
They must first be installed (installed) on the hard drive of a computer or laptop, which is the main inconvenience of this method. But if video files from VK are constantly downloaded and their volume exceeds 1,024 KB (1 MB), then installing special software is more than justified. GetVideo The first resource can be downloaded from the link https://getvideo.org/download. The program is distributed online free of charge. Its main advantage is downloading data from any Internet sources, including VK. The software product is installed in a standard way, equipped with a Russian-language interface and simple functionality. After opening the page via the link, you need to click the green “Download for free” button.

Next install the program. Important! Don't forget to uncheck the boxes when installing from: Yandex.Bar, instant messengers and other rubbish.

The work algorithm will be as follows:

1. Go to VK and find the video you need by copying the url address;
2. Open the installed application;
3. Paste the copied data into an empty line;
4. Wait while the program processes the data;
5. Select the appropriate video format and click the “Download” button.

The video will be downloaded to the folder whose path is (was) specified.
VKMusic The installation file can be found at https://vkmusic.citynov.ru. You should not pay attention to the name and its focus on downloading music tracks. The latest versions of the program allow you to reload photos, music, and videos onto your PC and laptop. Moreover, videos can also be downloaded from YouTube. When installing a software product, you need to pay attention to the automatic installation of additional software - Yandex. Bar, etc. You need to uncheck the boxes next to each item in the first installation step.

After installation, proceed as follows:

1. Launch the VKMusic program;
2. Find the desired object in VK and copy its URL (link);
3. Paste the data into the empty field of the program, press Enter;
4. Log in to VKMusic by entering your Login and Password for your VK account (this is completely safe);

   

5. Select the quality of the object from the list in a new window and wait for the download to complete.

The object will be saved to a new folder. To get into it, just right-click on the downloaded file in the program window.

Download to smartphone

To download videos to your phone, as well as to download them to your PC, you can use the mobile version of the site. Open the desired video through the browser on your smartphone. Perform a long press on the video player, and then tap on the “Download video” that appears. The video will be automatically saved in your Downloads folder, provided there is enough space on your device.

The online services GetVideo.org and GetVideo.at, which I wrote about above, have mobile versions of their sites, so you can go to them and download video clips to your smartphone.

If you often download videos to a smartphone running Android OS, then it will be much more convenient for you to use a special application. Google Play has several dozen programs that can download videos from vk.com. I found the most convenient application to be the one with the unambiguous name “VK Video”. To work with it, you will need to log in via VKontakte and allow access to media files on your smartphone.

On the first page, the application will show you the latest videos from the news feed. Use tabs and menus to view videos from your wall, saved posts, and videos you've been tagged in. Of course, there is a function to search for videos on a social network, as well as the ability to bookmark a video directly from the application.

To download a video clip, you need to tap on it, and then click the “Download video” button in a new window. The video will be downloaded to the “Downloads” folder.

There is also an application for iPhone and iPad that will allow you to download videos from any social networks, including VK. The application is called File Manager & Browser. This is a file manager with the function of downloading any video files from the Internet.

To download a video clip to your iPhone, you need to open the page with the video using the built-in browser and start playing the video. File Manager will show a notification asking you to click the “Download” button. You can see all downloaded videos in the “Files” tab.

Useful browser add-ons

Plugins are extensions that increase the capabilities of the browser. Their installation is carried out directly in the web browser, which is very convenient and takes a few seconds. Special extensions are released by developers for all types of popular browsers. The most functional are considered:

• Savefrom;
• Download Master.

To install Savefrom, you need to visit https://ru.savefrom.net/user.php?vid=387#download. Click on the green “Download” button (the type of browser in which the download is performed is determined automatically). If the plugin is not installed automatically, then complete the installation.

Now a blue down arrow will appear opposite each video file and audio recording (the color of the plugin icon on different resources will be different, but the appearance will remain unchanged).
Clicking on it will resave the object to the hard drive of your PC or laptop. The principle of installing and working with Savefrom for Opera and FireFox will be identical. Difficulties may arise for those users who access the network using Yandex Browser. It already has a plugin (it is in inactive mode). The user's task is to activate the extension. The algorithm is as follows:

1. Go to the “Menu” of the web browser;
2. Select “Add-ons” from the list;

   

3. Find the required plugin and activate the checkbox next to it;

   

4. Restart Yandex Browser.

To save a video from vk, you need to go to the page with the video, click on the arrow in the corner (extension icon).
The download will begin automatically to the folder specified in the browser settings. Download Master There will be no problems installing the download manager Download Master either. The software product is easily integrated into any type of browser. Google Chrome users, to install the extension, need to go to the Chrome online store from their account and enter the name of the plugin in the search bar, press Enter or follow the following link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/download-master

Then proceed like this:

1. Click on the button in the upper right corner “Install”;
2. Wait while the extension is installed;
3. Go from the main menu to “Additional tools”;
4. Select “Extensions”;
5. Find "Download Master";
6. Click the “Details” button to configure the option.

In the settings, you can specify specific sites from which data will be downloaded.
Here the additional option is removed or suspended. Users who access the network using Opera can download the download manager at https://addons.opera.com/ru/extensions/details/download-master-2/. The procedure will be identical to that described for Google Chrome. For those who use FireFox, the plugin needs to be downloaded from https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/download-master2/. The principle of working with the manager and its settings will be the same in all three cases.

It is more reasonable to choose a method for downloading videos from VK based on the volume (frequency of the operation) of downloaded files. If the procedure for resaving objects on a PC or laptop is carried out constantly, it makes sense to install a special program.
