How the MP3 conversion works
Every video on X carries its sound as a separate audio stream. SaveXClips downloads only that stream, so you don’t waste data on the picture, and encodes it to a 192 kbps MP3 inside your browser.
Because the conversion runs on your device, your files are never uploaded anywhere. It works on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
MP3 or M4A: which should you pick?
- MP3: plays on absolutely everything, from car stereos to old MP3 players. Best for compatibility.
- M4A: the original AAC audio from X, copied bit-for-bit with no re-encoding. Best quality and fastest to download.
- Editing in GarageBand, Logic, Audacity or Premiere? Use M4A to avoid a generation of quality loss.
Where the files go on Linux
Files land in ~/Downloads unless you’ve set a different folder in your browser settings.
MP4 files play in VLC, mpv or GNOME Videos, and import into Kdenlive, Shotcut or OBS.
