Egghead serves its media as MP4, and that is exactly what you keep. The container is passed through rather than rebuilt, so there is no generation loss between what Egghead stored and what ends up in your downloads folder. Egghead is handled by the media route, which reads the site's own rendition list before choosing anything. Among the Egghead link shapes handled are course, lesson. No credentials are involved anywhere in this path — neither yours nor ours.
Shortcut — stick tikt.com/ on the front of the Egghead address instead of copying it here:
tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media
The whole process
1. Copy the Egghead link
Use the address bar or the platform's own share button — both give a URL the extractor recognises. Point it at the single item you want, not the page around it.
2. Let it read the renditions
Paste the URL above. The extractor asks Egghead which renditions exist for that item and picks the best progressive one rather than assuming a quality.
3. Save what comes back
The file arrives in the container Egghead served it in, and the extractor does not rebuild it — so what you end up with is what the uploader encoded, for better or worse.
