How do I download a YouTube playlist with PulseDL?

Open the PulseDL Playlist Analyzer, paste your YouTube playlist URL, wait for the video list to parse, check the specific videos you want to download, select MP4 or audio format, and click Start Bulk Download.

Can I choose which videos to download from a playlist?

What is the playlist download limit on PulseDL?

Guests can select up to 50 videos per playlist job (10 downloads/day, 1080p). A free registered account can select up to 200 videos per job (100 downloads/day, up to 2160p / 4K where YouTube provides that stream).
