YouTube URL Resolver
Download YouTube-video's en Shorts snel in hoge kwaliteit.
Supported services
Hoe het werkt: Plak een openbare YouTube URL, bekijk de videovoorbeeld, kies een beschikbaar formaat en download.
The preview and format selector are rendered from the actual /api/resolve response for the pasted URL.
Supported URL patterns
- youtube.com/watch video URLs
- youtube.com/shorts Shorts URLs
- youtu.be short links
- m.youtube.com and music.youtube.com public URLs
Short links
- youtu.be links are accepted and resolved through this YouTube page.
Format availability
- MP4 appears when the source can be downloaded or remuxed as MP4.
- HD appears when YouTube exposes high-quality formats to the resolver.
- Shorts use the same /api/resolve result panel as standard videos.
Common failure reasons
- Private or deleted video
- Age, region, rights, or bot-access restriction
- Temporary YouTube access limit
- No compatible video format returned
What this resolver actually returns
Formats returned by /api/resolve
| Format | Typical quality | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| MP4 (H.264 + AAC) | up to 1080p | Single-file formats are preferred so the download starts without waiting for a server-side merge |
| MP4/WebM (VP9 / AV1) | 1440p–4K when exposed | Higher resolutions are merged server-side and streamed to the browser while the file is still growing |
| M4A (AAC audio) | source bitrate | Audio-only option appears when the source exposes a separate audio format |
How the resolver handles this platform
- Long videos start streaming to your browser before the server-side download finishes, so large files do not stall waiting for response headers.
- YouTube's automated-access checks are handled server-side with retries; if YouTube still refuses, the page reports the specific reason instead of hanging.
- Shorts URLs use exactly the same resolve and download pipeline as standard watch URLs.
- Private, age-restricted, region-locked, and deleted videos fail fast with the restriction named in the result panel.
Behavior verified against the production resolver: July 2026.
