Weibo Video Downloader
Paste a public Weibo post link and save its video as MP4.
Quick answer
Weibo Video Downloader downloads videos from public Weibo posts as MP4 files. Weibo wraps links in t.cn shorteners and can serve video from several CDN hosts, so the tool resolves the post first and then fetches the media. Posts that are deleted, protected, or visible only to followers cannot be processed. The finished MP4 is available for two hours.

Frequently asked questions
Do t.cn short links work?
Yes. The tool follows the redirect to the original post before looking for video media, so either the short or the full post URL is fine.
Can it download from a protected or followers-only account?
No. Those posts are not visible to anonymous visitors, so no public media URL exists to fetch.
What if a post contains several videos?
The tool handles one video per link. If a post embeds a multi-video card, paste the direct video page or repeat the process for each item.
Why did a Weibo link that used to work stop working?
Posts are frequently deleted or made private after the fact. When the page no longer serves media, the download fails even though the URL is unchanged.
