How to download a video from Facebook

How to download a video from Facebook

UPDATE: article was updated: How to download Facebook video without any tools (2017)

You've probably heard of the popular Youtube Downloader gadget for downloading video content from the Youtube site. But have you ever wanted to download a video from Facebook?

There are ways, not as many as there are on YouTube, but that doesn't mean there aren't. So, one way is to find a program where you would copy the URL of the video clip, click Download, and download the video. The problem is that such programs are limited, in the sense that full versions are paid and free ones are very scarce with options.

The second way is the so-called Online conversion, so you have a site where you enter the URL and click Download. The problem with these services is that it takes more time for the video to be uploaded to the site, converted, and then downloaded. I have searched for sites like this but to no avail, none are doing their job properly. If I haven't found one, it doesn't mean they don't exist.

The third option is Plug-ins for web browsers. I like this option the most because everything is completely free and 99% of the add-ons work nicely. Some time ago I used one add-on for Firefox, but since I don't even use this browser, I found another add-on for Chrome.

An add-on called  Facebook Video Downloader is designed to download videos from Facebook only, unlike Firefox.

Using this add-on is extremely simple, no adjustments are required.

After installation, refresh the (F5) Facebook page and go to the video clip you want to download. "Download", "Convert to mp3" and "Embed Video" will now appear on the right side (below the Share option). Select "Download" (if you want to download the video) and in the window that opens, right-click on "Download this video" and select "Save link as .." and save somewhere.

X96 Mini Android TV Box Review

I have already written an article about buying an Android TV Box for up to 30 euros, and now I am writing about one such device - the X96 Mini TV Box . There is not much to say about this device, its price is around 25 euros, it is an Android TV Box like any other, which means that it is powered by an Android system. Since I wrote about it in the previous article, I will not repeat myself. These cheaper TV Box devices differ mainly only in the chip, amount of RAM, and ROM memory. In the previous article, I wrote about what to pay attention to when choosing, and I chose this device that way.
