What happens after you paste the Peertube link

One Peertube URL can mean one item or a whole feed, and that distinction matters more than it looks. Paste the single-item link if you want exactly that item; paste the feed or collection URL if you want what it contains. Both resolve, they just resolve to different things. Peertube is handled by the media route, which reads the site's own rendition list before choosing anything. Among the Peertube link shapes handled are playlist. The renditions we see from Peertube arrive as MP4.

Two ways in: the box above, or prefix the Peertube URL you are already looking at with tikt.com/:

tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media
The whole process
1. Copy the Peertube 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 Peertube 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 Peertube 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 Peertube Media Converter

It reads the rendition list Peertube 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 Peertube did not publish.

Among others: playlist. 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.

MP4 — whatever Peertube 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.

Whatever the URL names. A single-item Peertube link returns that item; a collection or feed URL returns what the collection holds. If you got more than you expected, you pasted the container rather than the item.

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

Yes, identically. The work happens on our side, so an old phone on a slow connection is no worse at resolving the Peertube link than a desktop — it just downloads the file more slowly afterwards.

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 Peertube link does not need it and never will.

Not by us. There is no re-encode step in the path, so the file you get is bit-for-bit what Peertube served. Whatever compression Peertube applied when it accepted the upload is already baked in and cannot be undone by anyone.

Gif files are palette-compressed to keep size small. Resolution is preserved from the Peertube source clip; frame count drops if the source is longer than ~6 seconds.

GIF files render natively in chat clients (Discord, Slack, iMessage), forums (Reddit, 4chan), email clients and every browser without a plugin.

No special tricks. Paste the Peertube URL as it appears in your address bar; Tikt.com handles the rest.

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

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

Free. The Gif downloader for Peertube is unmetered for personal use -- no per-file fee, no daily cap.

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.
