YouTube Video Downloader FAQ

What resolutions are available for YouTube downloads?
You can choose from 1080p HD, 720p, 480p, and 360p. The actual available quality depends on what resolutions the video was uploaded in.

Can I download YouTube Shorts?
Yes. YouTube Shorts URLs (youtube.com/shorts/...) are fully supported.

Why can't I download this YouTube video?
Private videos, age-restricted videos without login, live streams, and some region-restricted videos cannot be downloaded. Only publicly accessible videos work.

Is downloading YouTube videos legal?
YouTube's Terms of Service prohibit downloading in most cases except for offline viewing via YouTube Premium. This tool is intended for videos you have the right to download — such as your own content, Creative Commons videos, or content with explicit permission.

Can I download audio only from YouTube?
This tool downloads the full video with audio. For audio-only extraction, the downloaded MP4 can be processed with a separate audio converter.

Does this work with YouTube playlists?
No. Only single video URLs are supported. Paste the URL of an individual video, not a playlist link.
