How do you guys convert videos to MP3 from YouTube on Windows 11?
You can download the videos with youtube premium and convert the videos. VLLC Media Player is a free, open-source media player that also includes a built-in media conversion feature, making it useful when you already have YouTube videos saved locally and only need to extract the audio.
This is one of the best I have found for converting videos to MP3 from youtube site.
1. Go to the official website and install the media player on your Windows PC or Mac.
2. Open the app from your computer.
3. In the File tab, click Add and choose the downloaded video file from your computer.
4. Click Save at the bottom of the window to proceed.
5. Under Profile, select Audio – MP3 as the output format.
6. Click Browse to choose the destination folder and name your output MP3 file.
7. Click Start and wait for VLLC to extract the audio and convert it to MP3.
8. Open the destination folder to verify that the MP3 file has been created successfully.
Limitations to Keep in Mind
Audio quality depends on the original downloaded video.
Metadata (artist, album art) is not added automatically.
Batch conversion is slower compared to dedicated tools.
