Source-backed choices

Formats and quality

Facebook can return progressive MP4 files or separate streams, depending on the post. Lynvado labels the formats found for the URL instead of promising a fixed resolution.

Visibility in a personal Facebook feed does not necessarily mean a video is publicly accessible without a session. Lynvado performs anonymous public analysis only.

Know the boundary

Facebook download limitations

Friends-only, group-restricted, login-only, paid, live, and removed videos are unsupported.
A page, profile, feed, or multi-video collection is not a single media URL.
Facebook access controls or temporary source changes may prevent analysis.

Real failure modes

Facebook troubleshooting

Why does a Facebook video open for me but fail here?

Your Facebook session may grant access that an anonymous request does not have. Lynvado never imports your login or cookies.

Does fb.watch work?

A share link can work when it redirects to a public video. Lynvado validates the redirect before continuing.

Why is HD missing?

The public response may expose only a standard-definition rendition, or the HD stream may require access Lynvado cannot use.

Why did my prepared download expire?

Lynvado stores completed files temporarily, normally for 60 minutes. The signed storage URL expires sooner; request the download again while the job remains ready or reanalyze the source link.
