Save MP4 From Livestream

The extractor reads Livestream's own rendition list and takes the best progressive one.

The short version

Livestream publishes live output next to finished uploads, and the two behave differently. A replay, VOD or clip has a settled file behind it and downloads normally. A stream that is still running does not have an end yet, so wait for the replay to appear before pasting the link. The extractor covers 3 separate Livestream URL shapes, so a link copied from anywhere on the site usually resolves as-is. Livestream is handled by the media route, which reads the site's own rendition list before choosing anything. The renditions we see from Livestream arrive as MP4.

The address bar works too. Prefix any Livestream URL with tikt.com/:

tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media
How to get the MP4 file
1. Copy the Livestream 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 Livestream 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 Livestream 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.

Technical FAQ — Tikt.com Livestream Media Converter

It reads the rendition list Livestream publishes for that item and takes the highest progressive one — a single file with video and audio already muxed, so nothing has to be recombined afterwards. It never re-encodes, so it cannot give you a quality Livestream did not publish.

Not usefully. A running stream has no end yet, so there is no finished file to hand you. Wait until Livestream publishes the replay or VOD — at that point it behaves like any other item and downloads normally.

Among others: original, shortener. Those are separate URL shapes with separate handling behind them, which is why a link that looks nothing like the last one you pasted still works.

No. 3 different Livestream URL shapes are recognised, which covers the ordinary address-bar URL, the share variant and most of the odd ones in between. Paste whatever you copied; if it is the Livestream address it will almost certainly resolve.

MP4 — whatever Livestream itself serves. The container is passed straight through rather than rebuilt, so there is no second round of compression between the platform's copy and yours.

You get the best progressive rendition Livestream publishes for that item, chosen automatically. There is no upscaling on offer, because inventing pixels that Livestream never encoded would make the file bigger and not better.

No. The file streams through and is gone; there is no library, no history and nothing to delete afterwards. That is also why we cannot re-send you something you downloaded last week.

No cap you have to pay to lift and no trial that expires. The paid plan exists for people who download in bulk or want the API; a single Livestream link does not need it and never will.

The Mp4 downloader for Livestream fetches the video stream the platform delivered and writes it as MP4 (H.264 + AAC).

Mp4 downloads from Livestream top out at 4K when the platform served that variant. Lower-resolution fallbacks exist if your IP gets a region-restricted stream.

MP4 (H.264 + AAC) plays in QuickTime, VLC, Windows Media Player, every modern browser, iOS / Android natively. No codec packs required.

Livestream serves the Mp4 asset as a public URL. Tikt.com fetches it without ever signing in to your account.

Saved to your browser's default Downloads folder. MP4 plays in QuickTime / Windows Media Player / VLC -- or upload directly to YouTube / TikTok / Drive / Dropbox.

One Mp4 per URL by default. For multiple, paste each Livestream URL into a fresh tab or use the batch endpoint documented under /api/.

Tikt.com does not retain downloaded files or log user activity. All media is processed in a stateless pipeline and transmitted directly to the requesting device.
