Step-by-step guide

  1. Copy the post URL

    Open the post on x.com and copy the address from the address bar (Ctrl+L, then Ctrl+C), or use Share › Copy link under the post.

  2. Paste it in the field above

    Click the input field, press Ctrl+V, then press Enter or click Download video.

  3. Click the quality to download

    Pick the resolution you want. Edge and Chrome show the download in a panel at the top right; Firefox shows it under the arrow icon in the toolbar.

  4. Open your Downloads folder

    Press Ctrl+J to see recent downloads, or open File Explorer and select Downloads (C:\Users\your-name\Downloads). The file is named x-<post id>-<quality>.mp4.

  5. Play or edit it

    Double-click to play it in Media Player (Windows 11) or Movies & TV (Windows 10). It also imports straight into Clipchamp, Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.

Why this is tricky

On x.com, right-clicking a video gives no "Save video as" option. The player builds the video from a stream of small segments in memory, so there is no single file for the browser to save, and screen recorders lower the quality. You need the MP4 version X keeps alongside the stream — no extension or desktop software required.
