Why we do not print a resolution
Every other page on this site labels files by their short side — 1080p, 720p, 480p. Facebook is the exception, and it is not laziness.
For the SD and HD files, Facebook publishes no dimensions whatsoever. No width, no height, no bitrate — the fields are simply absent. The only way to learn the size is to download the file and look at it, which is not something to do to every visitor before showing them a list.
Reels carry the same labels for the same reason, and have their own page: Facebook Reels Download.
Frequently asked questions
Why are the options called SD and HD instead of a resolution?
Because those are Facebook’s own names for them, and Facebook does not publish their dimensions — no width, no height, no bitrate. We could guess a number and print it, but on two videos we measured, HD was 1280×720 on one and 720×1280 on the other. A label that is sometimes wrong is worse than one that is always honest, so the files carry the names Facebook gave them.
What is the AV1 option, and should I take it?
It is the 1080p version, and above HD it is the only one Facebook publishes. AV1 is a newer codec: it decodes in hardware on recent phones and plays in VLC anywhere, but older devices, smart TVs and some editing software cannot open it at all. If you are archiving or watching on something current, take it. If the file is going into a timeline or onto an older device, HD underneath will save you trouble.
Does the 1080p file have sound?
Yes. Facebook stores picture and sound separately at that quality, and they are merged into one file on the way out — copied rather than re-encoded, so nothing is lost and it costs no waiting. SD and HD already contain their audio and are passed straight through.
Do reels work?
Yes. facebook.com/reel/, /watch/?v=, /watch?v=, /{page}/videos/{id} and the m.facebook.com equivalents all carry the same numeric id, and any of them can be pasted.
Can I download from a private group or a friends-only post?
No. Those are visible only to a logged-in account with permission, and this site holds no Facebook account. Public videos and public page posts are the whole scope.
Do fb.watch links work?
They are followed to the video they point at. A dead short link ends up somewhere that is not a video, and you are told to open the post and copy its full address instead.
Can I get just the audio?
Yes, as an MP3 at 320 kbps, converted on the way out with nothing written to disk on this server.
