How long does it take to download a video?

Can I download YouTube playlists?

What is the maximum video length I can download?

There's no hard limit on video length, but very long videos (over 1 hour) may take significantly longer to process and download. Very large files may also be limited by your browser's download capabilities.

Why is my download failing?

Downloads may fail if: the video is private or age-restricted, the video has been deleted, your internet connection is unstable, or YouTube has restricted access to the video. Try a different video or check your internet connection.
