URL tool

A direct URL is still untrusted input.

The direct media tool is built for CDN links, personal media servers, and stable files. It supports standard HTTP ports only, blocks private networks, validates redirects, and checks the content type before delivering the stream. No server-side copy is created.

Any public sourceNo account. No media storage. Public links only.
No media storage Signed delivery HLS and DASH manifests can be detected and saved, but a manifest is not a finished video.

How to use the direct media url downloader

  1. 1

    Paste an http:// or https:// media URL.

  2. 2

    Review the detected kind, extension, and size.

  3. 3

    Download through a signed, expiring Worker link.

What happens to your link

The URL is normalized in the Worker. A recognized platform selects the extractor or public metadata path. An unrecognized public host receives a direct media probe first, then a generic public-page metadata fallback. The target never receives your Fetchora cookies, and no private address is contacted.

Download options are tied to a 20-minute encrypted token. The Worker streams the selected file and does not write it to R2, KV, D1, or disk.
