Other special features:
- Built-in Browser: One of the most interesting features of this YouTube to MP4 video downloader is that it comes with a built-in browser. Using it, you can connect to all the supported websites some of which are listed as tabs that you can open with a single click. You can also take online courses trending on Lynda.com include Business, Developer, Photography, Design.
- Screen Capture: This feature truly helps you save a lot of time trying to record your desktop. Especially, on Windows, since there is no easy way to do this (unless you consider using the Xbox to record your gameplay in Standard Definition).
KeepVid Pro records your screen in HD, and it is easily convertible into any user-defined format and transferable to other devices. - Turbo Fast Download: Now you can download your YouTube to MP4 videos three-times faster with Turbo Mode. It is a button incorporated into the software that allows you to speed up the download process while upholding the integrity and HD quality of your videos.
- File Organization: While installing this software, you get to choose a location to keep all of the relevant files and folders in one place. In my case, it was the Drive D: where the KeepVid Pro installed three different folders. KeepVid Pro Converted, KeepVid Pro Downloaded, KeepVid Pro Recorded.
- Download then convert Mode: Enabling the download then convert mode located on the top-right section will automatically convert each downloaded file into a predefined user chosen format. Alternatively, the drop-down arrow next to ‘Paste URL’ also allows downloading MP3.
- Task Scheduler: It performs automatic tasks from closing KeepVid Pro to shutting down the computer after all downloads/conversions/recordings are completed.
- Preferences: It offers complete control over the software where you can personalize KeepVid Pro to match your requirements.
