Dailymotion is one of the largest video platforms in the world, but it doesn't offer a native download option for desktop users. SSvid fills that gap — a free desktop app that downloads any Dailymotion video in its highest available quality, with no limits or restrictions.
What You Need
- SSvid — free download from ssvid.app (macOS, Windows, Linux)
- A Dailymotion video URL
- That's it. No account, no signup, no browser extension.
Step-by-Step Guide
Find the Dailymotion video you want
Go to dailymotion.com in your browser. Browse categories, search for content, or navigate directly to a channel. Find the video you want to save for offline viewing.
Copy the video URL
Copy the URL from your browser's address bar. Dailymotion URLs look like: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8abcde
Paste the URL into SSvid
Open SSvid and paste the Dailymotion URL into the search bar at the top. SSvid automatically detects the video, extracts metadata (title, duration, thumbnail), and shows all available download options.
Choose quality and format
Pick your preferred resolution and format. SSvid shows the file size for each option so you know exactly what you're getting before downloading. Most Dailymotion videos are available in up to 1080p.
Hit Download
Click Download. SSvid's Rust engine handles the rest — fast parallel streams, automatic format merging, and pause/resume if your connection drops. The file saves to your chosen download folder.
Tip: SSvid also supports Dailymotion channel URLs and playlists. Paste a channel URL to download recent uploads, or a playlist URL to grab an entire collection. You can also extract Dailymotion videos embedded on other websites — just copy the embed URL.

Why SSvid Instead of Online Dailymotion Downloaders?
Online Dailymotion downloaders are ad-heavy, often limited to low quality, and many have been shut down or become unreliable. SSvid is different:
- Full HD quality — 1080p, 720p. Online converters often cap at 480p or lower.
- No ads — zero popups, zero redirects, zero tracking.
- 10x faster — Rust download engine with parallel streams vs. single-thread web converters.
- Works offline — once installed, SSvid needs no browser. No website downtime affects you.
- Batch downloads — download entire playlists and channels. Online converters do one video at a time.
- Pause & resume — lost connection? Pick up where you left off. Online converters start over.
- Privacy — your downloads stay on your machine. No server-side processing, no data collection.
- Multi-platform — SSvid downloads from 1000+ sites, not just Dailymotion. One app for everything.
