YouTube is one of the biggest sources of entertainment, music, tutorials, podcasts, interviews, and live content on the web, but online streaming is not always the most convenient way to watch or listen. Connections can be unstable, videos can disappear, and streaming full video files is often unnecessary when you only want the audio.
StreamFab YouTube Downloader Pro gives you a more flexible way to save that content for offline use. You can download YouTube videos and live streams as local files, save audio-only versions in MP3 or M4A, and choose the format, codec, and quality that fit your device and storage preferences. In addition to YouTube, it also supports 1,000+ websites, including Facebook, Vimeo, Twitter, BBC, and PBS.
StreamFab is developed by the DVDFab team—a video software company with over 20 years of experience, trusted by tens of millions of users worldwide, and featured and reviewed by technology publications including PCMag and TechRadar. The StreamFab engine receives weekly compatibility updates, typically resolving new DRM and delivery system changes within 24 to 48 hours of detection. The installer is virus-free and contains no bundled adware, toolbars, or third-party software.

Download YouTube videos in up to 8K quality
StreamFab YouTube Downloader Pro lets you choose the output quality that best fits your needs, from lower resolutions for smaller files to high-resolution output up to 8K, depending on source availability. This gives you more control over storage use, playback quality, and device compatibility instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all download.
Compared with many basic online downloaders that offer limited output options, StreamFab is built for users who want more than a quick conversion. It also supports advanced formats such as HDR and VR 360 videos, making it a better fit for users who care about visual quality as much as convenience.
StreamFab can automatically detect videos playing in the built-in browser, making it easier to download individual videos, playlists, or other supported content without extra manual steps. If you already have the link, you can also paste the video URL directly to start the download process.
Once you choose the format and quality, StreamFab adds the task to the download queue and saves the finished file to your selected output folder, so the workflow stays simple even when you are downloading multiple items.
For websites that use non-encrypted M3U8 streams, StreamFab can also detect and download compatible video content. This expands its usefulness beyond standard video pages and gives you broader coverage across supported sites.
*If the website uses DRM-protected M3U8 streams, please use StreamFab DRM M3U8 Downloaderinstead.
