Video Previewer

Video URL

An error occurred while loading the video

Unfortunately, there is not a reliable way to conveniently show the error cause here.
Some browsers, like Firefox, may show the error in the video player itself, while others may not show any error at all.
If you're able to, please check the console for more details.
Some common causes include:

The video URL is invalid or does not point to a video file.
The video file is malformed or not supported by the browser.
The server is unreachable or did not respond with a valid video file.
Your connection is unstable.

Some video CDNs use special HTTP headers such that when you visit the links, the video starts downloading instead of playing in the browser. In such cases, it can be frustrating if you want to preview the video before downloading it.

This simple tool allows you to preview videos by entering the video URL in the input field above.

All data is processed and requested client-side. No data is sent to third party servers other than the URL you enter.

Playing audio is also supported.

Tip: Append a # followed by the source URL, in the URL bar to automatically load it.
