Reddit video has no sound: what to check
Check the original Reddit post, the available download option, and your player if a saved clip has no sound.
The quick answer
Start with the Reddit post link, not a separate video-file address. FetchDL can save sound when the post provides an accessible audio track. A silent source or unavailable track cannot be fixed by repeating the download.
Use the Reddit post link
Copy the link to the Reddit post that contains the video and paste it into the Reddit video downloader. The post gives FetchDL the context needed to look for the available video and sound.
Check whether the original has sound
Some Reddit posts contain a silent clip, or the sound may no longer be available. If the original post has no sound, a downloaded file cannot add it.
Try a player that supports the file
If the original plays with sound but the saved file does not, try opening it in another up-to-date video player. Different devices support different video and audio formats.
When to try the link again
If the post is still public and the first attempt failed, copy the post link again and retry once. Removed posts and links that require sign-in may remain unavailable.
