Why Use Dailymotion Video Downloader?
Vivendi-Owned Platform Serving 350 Million Monthly Users Across 35 Languages
Dailymotion has been a subsidiary of Vivendi (the French media conglomerate that also owns Canal+ and Havas) since 2015. According to Dailymotion's media kit, the platform reaches over 350 million unique monthly visitors across 35 localized versions. It holds premium content partnerships with over 2,000 media companies including AFP (Agence France-Presse), Le Monde, The Guardian, and major European sports broadcasters, content that may not appear on YouTube or other US-centric platforms.
H.264 Encoding at Up to 1080p With MPEG-DASH Adaptive Streaming
Dailymotion uses MPEG-DASH (ISO/IEC 23009-1) adaptive bitrate streaming to deliver H.264-encoded video at multiple quality tiers, typically 1080p, 720p, 480p, and 380p. The platform's maximum upload resolution is 1080p (1920 × 1080 pixels). We extract the highest-quality progressive stream URL from Dailymotion's CDN, delivering the same video data your browser would receive at peak bandwidth.
dai.ly Short URLs Resolve Through Dailymotion's 301 Redirect System
Dailymotion's dai.ly URL shortener generates compact video links that 301-redirect to the canonical dailymotion.com/video/[id] page. Our tool follows the redirect chain automatically, paste the short link directly without needing to expand it first.
Audio Extraction as MP3 From the AAC Track
Extract the audio stream from any Dailymotion video as an MP3 file. The embedded AAC audio track is decoded and re-encoded as MP3 at up to 192 kbps. Useful for podcasts, news audio, interviews, and music content hosted on the platform.
No Account Required, Public API Access
Public Dailymotion videos are accessible via the platform's Data API (api.dailymotion.com) without authentication. We use public endpoints to resolve video metadata and stream URLs without requiring your credentials.
European News and Sports Content From 2,000+ Media Partners
Dailymotion's partnerships with AFP, Reuters TV, and major European broadcasters make it a primary source for news clips, football (soccer) highlights from Ligue 1 and La Liga, and regional content that often gets DMCA-removed from other platforms. Download while it's available.

How It Works
Find the Dailymotion Video
Browse Dailymotion or follow a link to the video you want. It could be on the homepage, in a channel, or embedded somewhere else.
Copy the Video URL
Grab the link from your browser's address bar or use the share button. URLs look like dailymotion.com/video/x123abc or dai.ly/x123abc.
Paste and Load
Drop the URL here and click Get Video. We'll show you the title, thumbnail, and duration so you know it's the right one.
Select Quality and Download
Pick 1080p for best quality, or lower resolutions for smaller files. Audio-only option available. Download starts immediately.
Good to Know
Regional Content
Dailymotion has strong European content. If you're looking for French, German, or UK-specific videos, this might be better than YouTube.
Geo-Restrictions
Some content is locked to specific countries. If you can watch it in your browser, you can download it. If not, we can't bypass the restriction.
Finding the URL
The easiest method is copying from your browser's address bar. Embedded videos usually have a link to the original Dailymotion page.
Quality Selection
Not all videos have 1080p. The quality options we show depend on what the uploader made available.
