In the past, people used generally browser plugins of
software to download videos and music online. There are many peer-to-peer
softwares out there helping to share media files between users and servers,
also there are lot of browsers addons that you need to install if you want to
download video of audio from public websites like Youtube, Vimeo, Dailymotion,
Soundcloud etc.
But nowadays, more people are using online services to save
their favorite video and audio from popular media sharing websites. If you
don’t know one of those online services, we are going to present here a brand
new and powerful website called Saveting.com. Saveting is one of my favorite Youtube video downloader website that supports many popular videos and audio websites. Saveting allows
you to download your media file just from its URL.
How Saveting works? What are the supported websites?
In opposite of many online services, Saveting uses a public
API to determine the exact media URL hosted in the media sharing website. The
API is https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/, it is developed by Github community
who supports to develop new features and continue to update the API every day.
Saveting use that API which goes directly and get the source
file of the media from the sharing site. With so, Saveting provides the direct
link of the file that you can download to your computer. There is no
converting, no intermediate process that Saveting does; you get the exact
original file URL without any modification.
Github is a great community with talented developers who
works hard to provide great stuffs. The API is maintained regularly and updated
with new features very often. The list of websites supported by the API is
huge. All popular websites are supported. Saveting has implemented the API and
allows the support of the following websites: 9gag, Dailymotion, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Liveleak, Mixcloud,
Soundcloud, South Park Digital Studios, TED, Twicth, Twitter, Vevo, Vidme,
Vimeo, Vine etc.
On top of those sites, some adult sites are as well
supported.
Saveting has prepared a dedicated page listing the popular sites supported where you can
download your video or audio.
What are the files formats available with Saveting?

formats and resolutions available on the sharing websites are also available
for download from Saveting. The following formats and resolutions are
