To begin the procedure, navigate to the Sohu webpage that contains the video you want to download and copy the URL.

Then, go to YT Saver and access the Downloading tab, then click Paste URL. Hit Download to start the process.

The app will start the analysis, which will generally take a few seconds (or longer, depending on the size of the video and connection). After analysis, the app will automatically begin the download.

YT Saver shows you the download progress, so wait patiently for it to finish.

5. Download using the Sohu app

The Sohu official app is another method for saving content from the platform, but it can only play downloaded videos within the app.

This means you won’t be able to use Windows Media Player or VLC to watch the content, which is why it’s last on my list.

To initiate the process, open the webpage of the video you want to save and click the Download button.

The website will then show the above message, Detecting Client, and begin the download of the Sohu app.

As soon as it’s done, you can install the app and search for the video name within it, as shown below.

After opening the video within the app, you can click the Download button below, above the Suggested Videos section.

You can then choose the download location and press Download to start it.

When it’s done, the pop-up shown below will inform you.

Then, you can navigate to the download location and double-click the video.

Pros:

• It’s the official Sohu app
• It can easily navigate content on the platform
• It has a built-in player and profile section

Cons:

• Only plays downloaded videos within the app
• Confusing interface with a lot of pop-ups
• Download speeds are slow, and the app loads slower than the website
• You can’t change the UI language
