Choose the right video or audio download
YTDownload helps you check a YouTube link and view the MP4 video resolutions and MP3 audio choices available for that video. Choose an MP4 download when you want to keep the picture, or select an MP3 download when you only need the audio. The format list is shown before preparation begins, so you can make a clear choice based on how you plan to use the file.
For video downloads, a higher resolution can give you a sharper picture but may create a larger file. For audio downloads, bitrate affects both sound quality and file size. A balanced option is usually suitable for everyday listening, while a higher bitrate may be useful for music or better speakers. Your finished file is provided through a single-use download and removed after delivery.
If you are unsure which option fits your device, read our simple guides. They explain MP4 and MP3 formats, common video resolutions such as 360p, 720p and 1080p, audio bitrate choices, and practical steps for fixing a failed video download.
