How to save Olympics clips on Linux
- Copy the post linkOn x.com, open the post, click the Share icon under it and choose “Copy link”, or simply copy the address from the browser bar.
- Open SaveXClips in FirefoxGo to savexclips.com in Firefox on your Linux. Any modern browser works; Firefox is just the default.
- Paste and press DownloadPaste the link into the box at the top of this page. SaveXClips finds the video and lists every available quality.
- Save the fileClick the quality you want. Firefox downloads the file and shows it in the downloads panel (Ctrl + Shift + Y).
Which quality to choose
Pick 1080p or 720p. Fast motion shows compression quickly, and short highlight clips stay small anyway (a 30-second 1080p clip is usually 5–15 MB).
On a desktop, always grab the top quality. Storage is cheap and large monitors reveal compression.
Where the files go on Linux
Files land in ~/Downloads unless you’ve set a different folder in your browser settings.
MP4 files play in VLC, mpv or GNOME Videos, and import into Kdenlive, Shotcut or OBS.
Olympics audio as MP3
Legendary commentary calls go viral on their own. Use the MP3 option to keep just the audio of a famous Olympics moment.
The MP3 works in Rhythmbox, Elisa or any player; the M4A is a stream copy of the original AAC, ideal for Audacity edits.
Download responsibly
Match footage usually belongs to leagues and broadcasters. Saving clips for personal viewing is common; re-uploading full highlights can get accounts struck.
