How to download Mail.ru Video videos
Tested October 27, 2026 with Castmate for Chrome.
- Open the Mail.ru Video video in Chrome and start playing it.
- Click the Castmate icon in the toolbar. The video shows up with its title, length and quality.
- Or press Download, then Save to computer, to keep it as one MP4 file. (Saving comes with the next Castmate update, 1.0.5.)
What we found
- Casting didn't work in our test. Mail.ru Video refuses the TV's requests. Saving still works, so you can download the video and play it from your computer.
- Saving works: one MP4 file with picture and sound.
