Download an iQIYI video: two domains and the VIP boundary
iQIYI runs iqiyi.com for mainland China and iq.com internationally, and the same title is not necessarily available on both. This page covers how each domain is handled, the VIP boundary, and why some links will not open from abroad.
How it works
- Open the video on iQIYI and copy the full address from the browser (iqiyi.com or iq.com).
- Paste it into the VidFable box, unchanged.
- Confirm you own the video or are authorised to download it, then press Parse and download.
- Download from the delivery panel.
iQIYI serves iqiyi.com in mainland China and iq.com internationally. The two point at different catalogues, so whether a link works depends on whether that title is carried on that site. Both domains can be pasted as they are.
Content that needs a VIP membership or a separate purchase is out of scope: the media address is only available with account entitlements, and VidFable does not accept accounts, passwords or cookies.
Public videos commonly publish several quality tiers up to 1080p. The highest deliverable tier the source returns for that request is selected; one it does not return cannot be produced.
Series and variety-show album pages and channel pages are listings, not a single video. Open the specific episode first and copy its page address.
A good deal of iQIYI content is region-licensed and cannot be fetched from outside its region. That is a platform-side restriction rather than a problem with the parser.
Frequently asked questions
Are iq.com international links supported?
Yes. Both the mainland and international domains are handled according to what the source publicly returns; no rewriting is needed.
Can VIP or paid content be downloaded?
No. It needs account entitlements, and VidFable neither takes credentials nor bypasses a paywall.
Why does a particular title fail to parse?
Usually it is not carried on the site you are hitting, it is region-licensed, or it needs a VIP entitlement.
Can an album page be parsed directly?
No. Album and channel pages are listings. Open the specific episode first.
Do I need an iQIYI account?
No, and please do not provide one. Parsing uses the public link only.
Can it get 4K?
Only when that video publicly returns a 4K tier for the request; an unpublished tier cannot be produced.
Supported platforms
