While there are web services that you can take advantage of if you wish to download videos from YouTube, Dailymotion, Facebook or other such websites, these normally limit the resolution of the output file, in addition to offering few, if any, extra features.

YouTube Video Downloader is a lightweight desktop application that enables you to save your favorite clips locally, as well as convert them to other formats.

Once you have installed the application, you can begin saving your first videos almost instantly. You only need to copy their URLs from your web browser, as the program grabs them automatically.

Next, you will be required to select the desired download quality, although this choice can also be made later, and specify where the file should be saved.

Unlike many other video downloaders, whether desktop or web-based, this application allows you to save 1080p, 2K, 4K and 8K clips. You also have the option of downloading the highest quality version that is available.

Additionally, YouTube Video Downloader is capable of extracting audio tracks from the source content, a feature that can be very useful when you wish to save songs locally.

Users can take advantage of the built-in conversion utility to ensure their clips can be played on various devices. Moreover, it is possible to trim certain sections from their videos and change the audio volume.

Lastly, experts should be pleased to learn that the output settings can be customized to a great extent, and you can also create presets to speed up future conversion jobs.

To conclude, YouTube Video Downloader is a novice-friendly utility that makes it much easier to grab clips from YouTube and various other hosting websites, and it also enables users to convert their videos to a wide range of other formats.
