How to Download Movies From Tubi?

in this article, I’ll introduce 4 powerful methods to download movies from Tubi. I hope you can find the one that satisfies your needs the most and helps you download movies from Tubi TV successfully.

Attention! It should be pointed out that downloading videos from web for commercial use is illegal, so keep them only for personal enjoyment.

Method 1: Download Videos From Tubi with iFunia YouTube Downloader

What is the best way to download from Tubi? I would say why not try iFunia YouTube Downloader? You may wonder why a YouTube downloader, but what it can do is much more than that. That means it can download from other platforms like Tubi, Twitter, Facebook, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Naver TV, apart from YouTube.

iFunia YouTube Downloader stands out also because of its efficiency and ease of use. You can input all the episodes of a whole series season into it, and it downloads them altogether for you with fast speed, in three-step.

How to Download Movies From Tubi on PC:

1. Head to the Tubi movie/TV shows you want to download and copy its URL.
2. Free download and launch iFunia YouTube Downloader on Mac/Windows.
     Free Download Windows 11/10/8/7 Free Download macOS 10.13 or later
3. Paste the video URL into the search box and click the ＋ on the right to load the video into the program.
4. Batch import is supported, so you can paste all the movies and the TV series URL into the mass paste window.
5. Once loaded all the videos, set up the output quality.
   Tips: in the same resolution, the format hvc1 has a better compression than avc1, so, hvc1 is more recommended especially when you have too many to download with not much storage space.

​You may wonder why there are no 1080P or 4K options?

In fact, the format, resolution and subtitles change according to the original video, as you can see below, the video definition on Tubi TV is from 360p - 720p and without caption, which determines the list on iFunia YouTube Downloader.

So, if your original video is a 4K/8K video, you’ll have the corresponding choice as shown below:

6. Finally, choose a folder path and hit Start to download from Tubi free.

Notes: You may encounter “Fail to load”, sometimes it’s the program issue, try them another time. Sometimes it’s your Internet connection and sometimes it’s the region limitation, hence try with a web proxy.

Method 2: Download Videos From Tubi Using Browser Extension FetchV

If you don’t want to copy the Tubi video links, then you can try a browser add-on that automatically detects the playing video on Tubi and download it directly in a click. FetchV is a video download extension for chromium-based browsers like Chrome and Edge.

But please consider that, not like a professional desktop, add-ons have no format or resolution options, and are relatively slow and unstable.

How to Download a Movie From Tubi With An Extension:

1. Find and install FetchV.
2. Head to the Tubi movie and play the video. Click the extension icon on the upper toolbar and choose FetchV.
3. Then it will list the video files it extracted. Select one and hit on Download. Normally the bigger the file size, the higher the definition.
4. In the download page, you can modify the file name and other settings by clicking the gear icon. Hover over the question mark to get more information.

Method 3: Download From Tubi Free Online

Besides browser extension, online video downloaders are also a good choice to download from Tubi free. I tested a dozen online video downloaders, few of them really work. SaveTheVideo is workable to download from Tubi free online.

However, the speed is slow and the quality is not as good as a professional Tubi downloader. In addition, online tools are relatively not safe and carries major risk to both your data and devices.

How to Download From Tubi Website Online Free:

1. Navigate to SaveTheVideo.com.
2. Copy and paste the Tubi video link into the search box, and click Start. It’ll direct you to an ad page. Close it.
3. In the pop-up window, choose Merge and select the video and audio formats. You are also allowed to cut the video length.
4. Then, it will start to retrieve the video and prepare the downloading from Tubi. Hit the Download again to download from Tubi online.

Method 4: Download Videos From Tubi via Command Line yt-dlp

yt-dlp is my go-to downloader for different kinds of videos. Actually it’s convenient and efficient if you know how to use command line as most of the video downloaders use the open-source yt-dlp in their basic program to extract and analyze data.

However, it’s not easy for a beginner to figure out this command line since the interface is not user-friendly and it needs an accuracy of the scripts.

Can you Download Movies From Tubi with yt-dlp:

1. Free download and install yt-dlp and ffmpeg on your Mac/Windows. 
2. Put the two program extensions into one folder.
3. Don’t leave, in the folder name location, change it and type cmd to open the Command Prompt. (Opening this way is fast and will save the video files downloaded directly in this folder.)
4. In the command window, type the below line and press Enter.

   yt-dlp -f mp4 URL

   “-f” means output format here. If you want other settings like download, thumbnail, subtitle, audio and other options, type: yt-dlp --help

   

5. After a few minutes, you’ll find directly the video file downloaded inthe Tubi file.
