There are numerous methods for downloading videos from Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. However, you may discover that downloading embedded videos is difficult. Embedded videos are self-hosted and built on a web page in the same way that HTML5 is. Embedding allows you to host these videos elsewhere – such as blogs, articles, and so on – so that users can watch them without having to visit the original web page.
