The YouTube to MP4 converter on YTubeMate turns a YouTube link into a standard MP4 file with picture and sound together. Nothing is re-encoded: the video and audio streams are copied from YouTube into an MP4 container, so 1080p stays 1080p.
MP4 quality and file size
| Quality | Resolution | FPS | Size (5 min) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2160p (4K) | 3840 × 2160 | 30 / 60 | 350 – 700 MB |
| 1440p (2K) | 2560 × 1440 | 30 / 60 | 180 – 350 MB |
| 1080p (Full HD) | 1920 × 1080 | 30 / 60 | 60 – 150 MB |
| 720p (HD) | 1280 × 720 | 30 / 60 | 25 – 45 MB |
| 480p | 854 × 480 | 30 | 15 – 25 MB |
| 360p | 640 × 360 | 30 | 8 – 12 MB |
Only the qualities that the uploader published are shown. A video uploaded in 720p has no real 1080p version, and upscaling would only make the file bigger.
