FAQ
Common Questions
Can I cut and download only part of a YouTube video?
Yes. Select the start and end time, choose an available format, and download only that section.
Can I use a YouTube Shorts link?
Yes. Publicly available YouTube Shorts links are supported.
Can I process an entire YouTube playlist?
No. YTCliply processes one video at a time. Open the video you want from the playlist, then paste that individual video link.
Are YouTube live streams supported?
Ongoing and scheduled live streams are not supported. A completed stream may work after YouTube makes it publicly available as a regular video.
Why can’t I process a private or restricted video?
YTCliply can only access videos that are publicly available. Private, deleted, age-restricted, region-restricted, members-only, or otherwise unavailable videos may not be processed.
Why is my YouTube link not recognized?
Make sure the link points to one specific YouTube video. Extra sharing parameters are usually fine, but channel, profile, search, home, and playlist-only links do not identify a video. If a valid video link still fails, try copying the clean video URL and select your start and end time in YTCliply.
Can I use YTCliply as a YouTube to MP3 cutter?
Yes. Select the time range you need, choose MP3 Audio, and download the resulting audio clip.
Can I trim a YouTube video and save it as MP4?
Yes. Choose MP4 Video to keep both the picture and audio from the selected range.
Is YTCliply a free online YouTube video cutter?
Yes. YTCliply is free to use and does not require payment, a subscription, or an account. For Cut & Download, the untrimmed source file must be smaller than 1000 MB.
Can I enter an exact start and end time?
Yes. You can use the timeline controls or enter timestamps manually.
Why is a video resolution not available?
Available video resolutions depend on what the original YouTube video provides. A resolution will also not appear when its untrimmed source file is 1000 MB or larger.
Is it legal to download a video clip?
You should only download or process content that you own, have permission to use, or are legally permitted to access. You are responsible for complying with copyright law and the platform’s terms.
