How to Download a Reddit Video With Audio

To download a Reddit video with audio, copy the post's share link, paste it into VideoDL at videodl.codjin.com, and download. Unlike Reddit's own save function, VideoDL automatically merges the separate video and audio streams into a single complete MP4 — the #1 reason Reddit downloads normally have no sound.

3 Steps: Reddit Video with Audio

1

Copy the Reddit post link

On the Reddit app or website, open the post with the video. Tap Share → Copy Link. Both full Reddit post URLs (reddit.com/r/…) and direct video links (v.redd.it/…) are supported.

2

Paste into VideoDL and extract

Open your browser and go to videodl.codjin.com. Paste the Reddit link into the input field and press "Extract Media". VideoDL fetches both the video stream and the separate audio stream from Reddit's CDN.

3

Download the merged MP4 with audio

Select your preferred quality. The result includes a merged video+audio MP4. Tap Download — the complete file (with sound!) saves to your device automatically.

Why Reddit Videos Have No Audio When Saved Manually

Reddit uses DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming) which stores video and audio as separate files. The Reddit player merges them in-browser on the fly. When you right-click → Save Video, you only get the video stream — no audio. VideoDL identifies and fetches both streams, then delivers them merged as a single MP4.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do Reddit videos have no audio when downloaded normally?
Reddit's DASH streaming serves video and audio as separate streams. The Reddit.com player merges them live in your browser. If you save the video file directly (right-click → Save, or the Reddit app download), only the video track is captured. VideoDL detects and combines both tracks for you.
Does VideoDL work with v.redd.it links?
Yes. You can paste both full Reddit post URLs (reddit.com/r/subreddit/comments/…) and direct v.redd.it video links. Both formats are resolved correctly and merged with audio.
Can I download videos from private or NSFW subreddits?
VideoDL can only access publicly visible content. Private subreddits, age-gated NSFW content requiring login, and deleted posts cannot be downloaded as they are not publicly accessible.
Reminder: Only download Reddit content you own or have permission to save. Redistributing other users' content without consent may violate Reddit's User Agreement and copyright law. Download responsibly.
