Y2Mate Converter - MP4 & MP3, All in One
Paste a video URL below, choose your format and quality, and continue.
Only convert or download videos you own, have permission to use, or that are available for download.
Y2Mate Player — Play Before You Save
Converted a file and want to hear or watch it before filing it away? Drop it here and it plays in the page. This is the part most converters leave out — you normally have to download first, open a separate media player, and only then find out whether the file is any good.
Choose a file or drag one here to play it
MP4 · WEBM · MKV · MOV · MP3 · M4A · WAV
Playback happens locally in your browser — the file never leaves your device, which is why it still works if you go offline after the page has loaded.
Checking a File Before You Keep It
Two quick checks catch almost every bad download, and the player above makes both of them fast.
Does the size look right? A five-minute video at 1080p should be roughly 150 MB; at 480p, around 50 MB; an MP3 of the same length, well under 10 MB. Anything dramatically smaller did not finish downloading, even though it will usually look complete in a folder listing.
Does it play all the way through? Drop it into the player and skip to the middle rather than the start. Truncated files very often play the opening few seconds cleanly and then stop abruptly — which is exactly the sort of thing you would rather find out now than on a flight with no connection.
If a file plays here but not in your usual media player, the file is fine and the player is the limitation. That is most often a codec gap: MP4 files normally contain H.264, which every device made in the last decade handles, but occasionally you will meet H.265 (HEVC), which older TVs and cheaper media players do not support.
What is Y2Mate Converter?
Y2Mate is one of the most-searched terms for online YouTube converters — people use it to mean any fast, browser-based tool that turns a video link into a downloadable MP4 or MP3 file. Y2Mate Converter is Softlookup’s own free implementation of that idea: one input box, one format picker, no separate MP3-only or MP4-only tools to remember.
It’s built for people who want the classic "paste, pick, download" workflow without hunting through ads or installing anything.
How to Use Y2Mate Converter
- Copy the video URL you are allowed to convert.
- Paste the URL into the Y2Mate Converter input box.
- Choose MP4 quality or MP3 audio.
- Click the convert button.
- Follow the result instructions to download or save the file.

- Supports HD video quality options up to 1080p
- No registration required

Supported Quality Options
| Format / Quality | Best For |
|---|---|
| MP3 Audio / 320kbps | Music, podcasts, lectures for offline listening |
| 360p / 480p MP4 | Standard mobile viewing, smaller file size |
| 720p HD MP4 | Good quality for phones, tablets, laptops |
| 1080p Full HD MP4 | High-quality desktop and TV playback |
Extracting and Checking MP3 Audio
If you only intend to listen — music, a podcast, a lecture — take the MP3 rather than the video. Stripping the video track cuts the file by roughly ninety per cent, and audio playback lets your phone screen sleep, which uses noticeably less battery on a long journey.
Which bitrate: 320 kbps for music you intend to keep, 192 kbps for general listening, 128 kbps for anything speech-led. A spoken recording sounds essentially identical at 128 as at 320 and takes a third of the space. Going above 320 kbps does not help, because the source audio is already compressed — a higher setting produces a larger file containing exactly the same sound.
Then play it back before you commit. Audio problems are harder to spot than video ones: a truncated MP3 often shows the right duration in a file listing and only cuts out when you reach the end. Dropping it into the player above and skipping to the last minute takes seconds.
One thing worth doing afterwards: converted files carry whatever tags the source had, which is frequently nothing. Music players sort by tags rather than filenames, so a folder of correctly named files can still appear as one block of “Unknown Artist”. Editing title, artist and album takes a couple of minutes — MP3Tag on Windows and Kid3 on macOS and Linux both handle it in bulk and are free.
Supported Formats
| Format | Use Case |
|---|---|
| MP4 | Best format for video downloads and universal playback |
| MP3 | Audio-only extraction for permitted music, podcasts, or lectures |
| WEBM | Web-friendly video playback |

Is Y2Mate Converter Safe?
The one warning worth repeating: if a converter offers you an .exe or .apk
when you asked for an .mp3, close the tab. Checking the file extension before opening
anything is the single habit that avoids most trouble on sites like these.
Legal Use
Convert content you own, have permission to use, or that is published under a licence permitting download. YouTube marks Creative Commons licensing in the video description, which is the quickest way to check.
