Simultaneously download and convert YouTube videos to MP4 for iPod and iPhone
As a YouTube enthusiast, I have installed different Firefox plug-ins to download my favorite YouTube videos, while as the accumulation of more and more plug-ins, my Firefox often collapses and refuses to go in a correct way. To keep my Firefox clean and working well, I have to find a green tool to take place of the plug-ins; meanwhile, it is expected to finish downloading and converting to MP4 simultaneously, so that I can put them to my iPhone and iPod for playback without trouble.
I did a Google search, found a program called Pavtube YouTube Converter, which has a good rank in Google, but at first, I did not trust it at all, and just tried its trial version, after several attempts, I found it is really easy-to-use and powerful, which can process downloading and converting at the same time without any video and audio out of sync issues. Moreover, its built-in codecs avoid disturbing my computer system, which is what I need most. Thus finally I purchased it, now I share it here, and hope you can get what you want from it as well, and also express my gratitude to it.
Its operation process is so simple, you just need copy and paste the URL of the YouTube videos which you want to download and convert to it, and then select output format, here I choose MP4 for my iPhone, afterwards, specify where to save the output files, and click “OK” to start. You see, all are done, isn’t it easy?
Of course, if you have higher expectation of the output files, you can click “Custom” to adjust video and audio parameters like codec, aspect ratio, bit rate, frame rate, etc. on the following panel:
Since I am a Windows user, I do not know many about Mac, and I just know some of my friends are using Safari to download YouTube videos on their Mac OS. One day by chance, when chatting with one of my friends, he told me that he also used Pavtube (YouTube Converter for Mac) to download and convert YouTube videos to MP4 for his iPod and iPhone. And he was most satisfied with its fast batch conversion speed and great output quality. After that, I was definitely believed that my choice is correct.
