How do you upload videos from Twitter and their thumbnails to the wiki?

Easy way

  • Visit Twitter Video Downloader (not built by me).
  • Copy and paste tweet URL (e.g. https://twitter.com/SplatoonJP/status/1533735948747276289) to the Enter link/url bar, then click Download button.
  • Download video thumbnail:
    • Right-click image, then click Open image in new tab.
    • Navigate to the new tab, then add :orig at the end of the URL to obtain the highest resolution of the thumbnail. Press Enter.
    • Alternatively, right-click the image, click Copy image address, and then add :orig at the end of the URL.
  • Download the video itself:
    • Click Download Video button at the highest resolution (in most cases it should be 1280x720 : mp4).
    • Alternatively, right-click the Download Video button, then click Copy link address.

Hard way

  • Use this API URL: https://cdn.syndication.twimg.com/tweet?id=<tweet-id>.
    • For example, the Explosher for Splatoon 3 video's tweet URL is https://twitter.com/SplatoonJP/status/1533735948747276289, so the API URL for the Explosher video is https://cdn.syndication.twimg.com/tweet?id=1533735948747276289.
  • Download video thumbnail:
    • Ctrl+F thumb and copy the URL you find (e.g. https://pbs.twimg.com/ext_tw_video_thumb/1533403931526582272/pu/img/ga8Zou-FOCpnXVNB.jpg).
    • Do not forget to add :orig at the end of the URL you just copied to obtain the highest resolution of the thumbnail. For example, the final thumbnail URL should be https://pbs.twimg.com/ext_tw_video_thumb/1533403931526582272/pu/img/ga8Zou-FOCpnXVNB.jpg:orig.
  • Download the video itself:
    • Ctrl+F 1280x720 (the highest obtainable resolution of a video, 720p) and copy the URL you find (e.g. https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1533403931526582272/pu/vid/1280x720/2X-WybpGWQuMlNdA.mp4?tag=12).
