1. Use a playlist URL

Copy a YouTube URL that includes the list parameter. A single watch URL without a playlist ID opens the normal video downloader instead.

2. Select individual entries

After analysis, use Select all, the title filter and each video checkbox to build the exact set you want. The selected count updates before processing begins.

3. Choose MP4, MP3 and subtitles

MP4 keeps video. MP3 creates audio-only files. For video output, subtitles can be embedded or added as separate SRT files when captions are available.

4. Keep the page open

Selected entries are processed one at a time and then packaged in the browser. Very large selections need more time, memory and storage, so smaller batches are more reliable on mobile devices.
