Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert YouTube to MP4?

Paste the YouTube URL above, wait for the formats to load, then pick the MP4 resolution you want. Both youtube.com and youtu.be links work.

What quality options are available for MP4?

Whatever the upload actually contains, commonly 1080p, 720p, 480p and 360p. A video uploaded at 720p has no 1080p rendition, and no converter can create detail that was never recorded.

Why do 1080p and 4K need extra processing?

Above 720p, YouTube stores video and audio as separate streams. They have to be merged into one MP4 after download, which is why higher resolutions take a little longer than 720p.

What is the difference between MP4 and WebM?

MP4 plays on essentially everything. WebM is often slightly smaller at the same quality but has patchier support on older devices and editing software. Choose MP4 unless you have a reason not to.

Can I convert a YouTube playlist or a private video?

Links are handled one at a time, and only public videos can be read. Private, unlisted-and-restricted, or age-gated videos will fail the check.
