Browser and headers
Use the built-in browser, browser fallback, custom headers, and cookies safely.
Built-in browser
Open Browser, enter a URL or search term, and choose Open Browser. The built-in view is useful when the page itself must be opened before its media can be detected.
If a pasted link fails in the normal extractor, a completed or failed item can offer a browser fallback action. Open the source there and use the detected media controls when they appear.
Custom headers and cookies
Open Headers to add request headers or cookies. A header can apply to a specific domain or, if no domain is supplied, to all requests. This needs an active trial or subscription; the built-in browser above does not. See Free and Pro.
You can add a header manually, add cookies, or use the extraction tool to copy request data from an authorised browser session. Review the domain scope before saving it.
Headers can contain credentials
Cookies and authorisation headers can grant account access. Add only data you understand, limit it to the intended domain, never paste it into support messages or screenshots, and remove it when it is no longer needed.
The footer on the Headers page reminds you that active headers are applied to requests. Use Clear All when you want to remove the configured set.
Access and site rules
Headers do not bypass a site's permissions. They only let 9xbuddy make the same authorised request represented by the data you supplied. Private, removed, region-restricted, DRM-protected, or otherwise unavailable media may still fail.
