Ultimate Guide: How to Download 4K Videos from YouTube with Addoncrop Chrome Extension

Looking to download 4K videos from YouTube? With Addoncrop’s YouTube downloader Chrome extension, you can easily save high-quality 4K videos directly to your device. Experience crystal-clear visuals and enjoy your favorite content offline without any limitations!

Introducing the Best YouTube 4K Video Downloader Extension

The Addoncrop YouTube video downloader is the ultimate solution for all your YouTube content download needs. Our browser extension allows you to download 4K video clips without any charges or licensed software requirements.

Combined with the user-friendly Flixmate software, seamlessly integrated with Addoncrop, you can download high-quality videos and convert them to various formats. Flixmate supports a wide range of qualities from 480p up to stunning 8K resolution!

Why Do I need Flixmate to Download HD Videos with Sound?

Flixmate is required to allow Addoncrop to function as a 4K video downloader because YouTube no longer offers direct download for HD videos with sound. Right now, YouTube only supports download via Dynamic Adaptive Streaming (DASH), which means the video is split into two files - video & audio - which need to be merged to create a watchable video.

When you use our extension as a YouTube HD downloader without Flixmate, the videos you get will come without sound. It requires a special 'FFmeg' tool that merges the video and audio - something that Flixmate has, allowing it to command the extension to merge the audio and video in the background, giving you the high-quality video you were expecting.

Is the Flixmate App Compulsory For the Addoncrop Video Downloader?

No, downloading Flixmate is not compulsory, but it is needed if you want Addoncrop to be able to function as a 4K Youtube video downloader. In order to download HD or UHD videos, the software it contains is necessary. If you don't add Flixmate, you can use Addoncrop as a standalone YouTube downloader to save sub-HD quality videos or convert them to mp3.

How Do I Watch Downloaded Videos?

Once you've used our 4k video downloader YouTube clips can be played using one of a variety of free video players that include:

  • VLC - Windows/Mac/Linux (very popular)
  • Movies & TV - pre-installed on Windows 10
  • Windows Media Player 12 - Windows
  • iTunes - Windows/Mac

Can I Use the Flixmate App on Any OS (operating system)?

Currently, Flixmate only supports Windows 7, 8 & 10, but Mac and Linux support will be added in the near future.
