4K Video Downloader For Linux

4K Video Downloader is a free, fast and cross-platform software project that has been designed from the ground up to allow you to download video stream over the Internet in the 4K high-definition file format from the YouTube, DailyMotion, Vimeo, Facebook, Flickr and SoundCloud video/audio hosting websites.

Key features include support for downloading a wide range of multimedia files, including video, audio, Instagram photos, and subtitles streams, the ability to convert downloaded videos to a format that is compatible with mobile devices, such as iPad, Android or iPhone, an easy-to-use graphical user interface, support for multiple languages, as well as support for mainstream operating systems.

The program allows users to download entire YouTube channels and/or playlists, supports a wide range of file formats, including MP4, M4A, MP3, FLV, MKV, 3GP or M3U, supports downloading of high-definition videos in 720p and 1080p format, supports embedded subtitles or subtitles in the SRT format, support for downloading 3D videos, and support for downloading embedded YouTube videos from any website.

Downloading 4K video streams with the 4K Video Downloader application is quite simple and straightforward, as users will only have to copy the link (URL) of the video stream they want to download from YouTube via their web browser, and click the 'Paste Url' button on the main interface of the program. That’s it! From here, the app will automatically download the file and, if instructed, convert it into a specific format.

At the moment, the software is supported on all mainstream operating systems, including GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. On Linux, it is available for download only as binary packages for Ubuntu-based distributions, in the DEB file format, for 32-bit and 64-bit hardware platforms.

Despite the fact that it’s a free application, as described on its homepage (see link below for details), the 4K Video Downloader application also offers commercial features (downloading of YouTube channels and playlists containing more than 25 streams and subtitles), which can be enabled only if you purchase and activate a license, which costs 19.95 USD (15.71 EUR).
