How to Download Facebook Videos Online? (Public and Private Videos)

After lots of googling, I found a website “GetFbStuff.com” which doesn’t just help you in downloading Facebook videos, it hosts hundreds of thousands of Facebook videos in its directory and it has many other useful features.



The features of the websites are below:

1. Facebook Video Downloading Online

2. Downloading Private Facebook Videos

3. Downloading Facebook Page Photo Album

4. Online Vimeo Video Downloader

Getfbstuff.com is an online Facebook video downloader which helps you to download videos on all kind of devices. Since it is a web-based application, it supports Windows, Mac OS X, Ubuntu and all other kinds of operating systems.
Just the way Youtube videos are hosted on Google’s servers, Facebook videos are hosted on Facebook servers. But the link or URL of the Facebook video which we see on Facebook isn’t the actual file source, instead it is embedded.

1. Downloading Public Facebook Video

Step 1:
Get Facebook video URL
Make sure that the video you are trying to download is hosted on Facebook servers and its privacy is public. (URL of public videos look like: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=921674917…)

Now having confirmed the public privacy, right click and open the Facebook video in a new tab. Copy the video URL from your web browser.
If the video you’re trying to download turns out to be private refer to the very simple method of downloading private Facebook videos described later in this article.
Step 2:
Open the Facebook video downloader online
Open the link above and paste the copied video URL in the video URL box as shown in the screenshot below. Click the “Download” button.



Step 3:
Download your video in the required quality
The Facebook video can be available in two qualities- high resolution or low resolution.
Identifying the required quality, right click and select “Save link as” to save Facebook video into your computer.

Note: If you are unable to download the Facebook video, it may be so because of the privacy settings of the uploader.

2. Downloading Private Facebook Videos

I’m recommending using GetFbStuff because it provides you an option of downloading private Facebook videos where other video downloaders fail. Private Facebook videos are those whose privacy is set as “private” or not “public” by the uploader and it’s not possible to download that video just by using the URL.
Step 1:
Get the “page source” of private Facebook video
Right click and open the video in a new tab.
The private Facebook video’s URL will look something like: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=913044420&set=a.15841…..


Right-click on the page and select “View page source” or go for CTRL+U.
Copy the entire page source by using “CTRL+C” and “CTRL+C”.



Step 2:
Open Private Facebook video Downloader
Open the above link and paste the source code in the box as shown in the screenshot. Click the download button.


Step 3:
Download and save the video

Identifying the required quality, right click and select “Save link as” to save Facebook video into your computer.
