Multi-part uploads and which URL to paste
Long Bilibili uploads are frequently published as a stack of parts under one collection page. The player’s part switcher changes which segment loads, and the address often gains a query or path cue that marks the active part. Copying the collection shell while you meant part three is a classic mismatch.
This guide focuses on picking the URL that names the part you want before you use Vidzilla’s Bilibili tools.
Multi-part uploads reward a slow copy: switch the player, wait for the media to change, confirm the address cue, then paste. Rushing that sequence is how people spend a free daily download on part one by accident.

One collection, many playable segments
A multi-part work shares branding and a parent page, but each part is its own playable segment with its own encode set. Thumbnails in the part list are not interchangeable files.
Watch the part title in the player as you switch. When the media changes, confirm the address bar updated before you copy.
Treat the collection as a binder and each part as a separate sheet. Analyze works on the sheet you named in the URL, not on every sheet in the binder from one casual paste.
Reading part cues in the address
Depending on surface and language edition, part selection may appear as a query parameter (often involving p= or similar) or as a distinct path state after navigation. You do not need to memorize every variant—you need the address that appears while the desired part is playing.
If two parts somehow share a visually identical URL in your browser, switch parts again and recopy; stale tabs can lie. Prefer a fresh load of the part you care about.
When the cue is present, leave it alone. Do not strip query pairs “to clean the link” if those pairs are how your browser marks the active part. Cleaning the wrong characters is a fast path back to part one.
Single-part videos still need the watch URL
Not every Bilibili upload is multi-part. Single videos still require the watch page with the BV (or equivalent) id, not a space home or search URL.
Bangumi/season style pages can add another layer of episode lists—open the episode player itself so the URL names that episode/part.
Season hubs and space homes are catalogs. They are useful for navigation and wrong for Analyze until the player for one episode or part is active and the address reflects that choice.
Region, login, and membership gates
Some parts play only after login, regional unlock, or membership. Signed-out Analyze cannot pass those gates. A part that plays for you while logged in may still return an empty list here.
Test the exact part URL in a private window. If it fails there, do not expect Vidzilla to succeed.
Password-style gates and DRM-backed streams follow the same rule. Public Analyze stops where anonymous playback of that specific part stops—even if neighboring parts in the same collection remain open.
Paste strategy for multi-part jobs
Decide the part number first. Switch the player to that part. Copy the resulting watch URL. Paste into the Bilibili tool and Analyze. Repeat per part if you need several—do not assume one paste archives an entire season.
Large parts may press free size ceilings. Check megabytes on each row before starting.
- Switch part → confirm URL → copy
- One paste → one segment
- Private-window test for gates
- Season hubs ≠ episode files
After Analyze
Choose height and container for that part, download with the tab open, verify playback. Name files with part numbers locally so a batch does not overwrite itself in Downloads.
Respect uploaders and Bilibili rules. DRM or paid-only streams that never expose clear public encodes are out of scope.
Local filenames that include the part number save you from stacking identical “download (1)” names when you process several segments in one sitting.
How this supports—not replaces—the tool
The downloader still performs Analyze and prepare. This article only prevents the wrong-part paste that wastes a free daily download on segment one when you needed segment seven.
Sibling Bilibili pages on Vidzilla follow the same part-aware URL discipline.
Stay on the angle: multi-part uploads demand the URL that names the active segment. Everything else—quality choice, quotas, verification—is ordinary once that paste is correct.
Frequently asked questions
Will one paste download every part in a multi-part upload?
No. Each part needs its own watch URL captured while that part is active, unless a specific playlist-style workflow says otherwise. One paste targets one segment’s encode set.
My URL did not change when I switched parts—what now?
Reload the part from the part list, ensure the player actually switched media, then copy again from the address bar. Stale tabs can keep an old address while the UI looks updated—prefer a fresh load of the part you want.
Can Vidzilla open membership-only parts?
No. Signed-out Analyze cannot use your membership session. Region locks and login walls fail the same private-window test.
Are BV ids enough without part info?
For single-part videos, the watch URL with the id is enough. For multi-part works, include whatever cue your browser shows for the active part so Analyze does not default to an unintended segment.
Why did I get part 1 when I wanted part 3?
You likely copied before the player finished switching, or from a parent page. Switch, wait for the media and address to update, then recopy the part-aware URL.
Where do I paste the part URL?
Use Vidzilla’s Bilibili video download tool with the URL captured while the desired part is playing, then confirm the saved segment on disk.
