Hey, I extracted the video URL for TikTok using this package but I could not view it from the browser then I saw where most probably the admin answered you can download it but can't view it in the browser so I tried to download that but my video player says This file isn't playable. That might be because the file type is unsupported, the file extension is incorrect, or the file is corrupt.

Here is how I downloaded the video I just pasted the URL onto the fetch function.

and here is how I got the video link

I would really appreciate the help thanks!

One more thing I also saw a different TikTok video downloader but the difference between their link was they used something called v19 instead of v16 TikTok cdn.

First, you need to pass in the video meta headers and then create a write stream.
