Open Media Downloader ProStart with resolution
Resolution is one of the easiest ways to control file size. A 480p MP4 is usually much smaller than a 1080p MP4 from the same source.
If the video will only be used as a reference, a lower resolution may be the smarter choice.
Avoid downloading more than you need
Analysis lets users see options before saving. That prevents downloading a large file only to realize a smaller version would have been enough.
A clear format list is especially helpful for mobile visitors or slow connections.
Use file-size limits
Server-side file-size limits protect the app from oversized downloads and help keep the service responsive.
This project uses a maximum download size so the downloader stays lightweight.
