If you want to download the file immediately, click Download, if you want to download later, click Download later. In the latter case, you must start the download manually.
Note: in the case of Download Later, do not forget that video services tend to have links with a limited life time. After this time, the links become unavailable. Most likely when you type such a link, you will receive an HTTP403 or HTTP404 error.
 
 
For YouTube links, there are additional options for downloading media files.
 
YouTube usually returns three types of links: video links video with sound, video links without sound and links to sound without video.

Sound links have to convert to most popular sound format MP3. If you will answer No then, sure, you know wnat you are doing.
 
 
If you want to join an audio track to the selected video, AntDM will show you the following dialog window with a list of available audio files. Select the desired audio file and click Yes. If you click No, AntDM will download the WEBM video file in its original format.
