How to Download Videos from Blogger Posts
Blogger (Blogspot) has been around for over 20 years and still hosts millions of active blogs. Many of these blogs include embedded videos — some uploaded directly to Blogger, others embedded from YouTube, Vimeo, or other platforms. Blogger has no native download option for videos in posts.
This guide covers how to save videos from Blogger posts as MP4 files.
The fast version
- Open the Blogger post containing the video.
- Copy the post URL.
- Open SaveFast.cc, paste, click Download.
- Pick MP4 quality.
Two types of Blogger videos
Native Blogger uploads — uploaded directly to a Blogger post. These use Google's video infrastructure. SaveFast handles them via the post URL.
Embedded videos — the post embeds a YouTube, Vimeo, or other player. For these, the SaveFast workflow varies:
- Try pasting the Blogger post URL first.
- If that doesn't work, find the embedded video's direct URL (right-click the video → "Show URL" or look at the embed code).
- Use the appropriate platform guide (e.g., YouTube).
Downloading on Desktop
- Open the Blogger post. URLs look like
username.blogspot.com/2024/01/post-title.htmlor custom domains. - Copy the URL.
- Go to savefast.cc, paste, click Download.
- Pick MP4.
Downloading on Mobile
Same flow in Safari (iPhone) or Chrome (Android). Blogger pages work cleanly in mobile browsers.
Quality available
For native Blogger uploads, quality depends on what the blogger uploaded — typically 360p-720p, sometimes 1080p. Blogger doesn't offer the same multi-tier system as YouTube.
For embedded YouTube/Vimeo content, you get the full quality range of those platforms.
Common issues
"Video element not found." The post may not have a video, or the video is embedded from an unsupported source. Look at the embedded player and try its direct URL.
Blog is private. Some Blogger blogs are invite-only or password-protected. You need access to view to download.
Old video won't play. Very old Blogger posts (pre-2010) sometimes have video format issues. The video might still play in the browser but not download cleanly.
Privacy and use
Downloads invisible to the blog owner.
Most Blogger content is published with sharing in mind. For redistribution, follow standard copyright and credit norms.
Frequently asked questions
Is downloading Blogger videos legal?
For personal use of public posts, generally yes.
Can I download from password-protected blogs?
Only if you have the password and can view in your browser.
Does this work for Blogger custom domains?
Yes — custom domains (yoursite.com instead of yoursite.blogspot.com) work the same way.
What about audio in Blogger posts?
For podcast-format Blogger posts, the MP3 option extracts audio from embedded videos.
