Audials is the ultimate software for lovers of music! Audials scans Spotify, Amazon Music, Soundcloud, video sharing websites, other music services and internet radio stations to provide you with your favourite music. In absolutely no time at all and in top quality, Audials saves large quantities of your favourite music to your library as MP3s, AACs or any other format. You can best experience the true musical power of Audials on your computer or on the apps for your smartphones or tablets.
You will get all music features with Audials One or Audials Music.
Audials can scan and record music from Spotify, Soundcloud, Deezer, Amazon, Apple Music, other music streaming services and video platforms. It does not matter whether you record form a web player or a PC software. Thanks to the fingerprint-based song recognition, Audials can save songs from almost any source as separate files.
If a streaming service is not preconfigured as a tile in the Music Streaming view, you will be able to record it by clicking the Other Source button.
Spotify, Tidal, Apple and Deezer stream your music at up to 320 kbps, and you can save it on your computer with no loss of quality in MP3, AAC or WMA format.
Tidal also offers lossless coding and streams its content in HiFi quality at 44 kHz/16 bit or in master quality at 96 kHz/24 bit. This music can be saved in FLAC format or (for HiFi) in WAV format. Master quality is the highest quality available and allows you to enjoy music in studio quality.
Benefit from the freedom of being able to record at any level of quality offered by the services!
Using its music map, Audials can access any online music source, enabling it to provide you with the latest charts or entire albums or discographies of your favourite artists in just a few seconds. It has direct access to the highest quality audio track of any music video which it can then download.
Would you like to be able to access an abundance of music in no time at all? Then all you need to do is drag individual songs, playlists and albums from music streaming services or video portals into Audials and click on the download button. This way you'll always receive perfectly trimmed music.
With Audials "Music - Load", Audials scans Spotify, Amazon Music, Soundcloud, and video platforms. Simply select a song, album or artist and Audials will quickly and clearly present you all available versions, automatically suggesting the best version.
You can play the music directly or select it with one click and get your music immediately. You will be thrilled by how quickly and easily this works! You can type in artists, songs, charts and compilations etc. Then you can play them all, download them or add them to your playlist.
Are you looking for a quick way to find artists similar to those you already know? Type the name of your favorite artist into the Music section and scroll down. You will find a list of suitable artists. If you need more releated search results, switch to the Related Artists tab on the right.
Audials will now show you similar artists. Click on the ones that you're interested in and Audials will list their songs. This way you can complete your music collection as you wish.
You do not need to manually enter playlists from Spotify into Audials. Simply copy the URL of the playlist into Audials. Listen to the songs directly, rearrange them or remove songs you don't like. Then save the songs on your PC either as links or as individual, perfectly cut files.
You will see all your playlists in the Playlists menu. There you can manage them and even create new ones. Just drag the songs from the player in the upper right part of Audials into your new playlist. Audials will be able to generate playlists with your music, too, if you define an artist or a genre.
You determine your own style of music on Audials. You name Audials a couple of artists, bands or online radio stations that play your favorite music. Then you define the settings: for example, you might want 1,000 tracks with a well-balanced mix of music that best matches your style. Audials then instantly shows you a detailed overview of what your new music collection might look like. Click Create collection, and Audials will quickly provide you with the right music collection.
This feature is available in Audials One only.
Audials One automatically adds lyrics, album covers and all of the ID3 tags like genre and year to songs. In addition to this, details can be changed manually using a tag editor.
However, you can also have music collections that do not originate from Audials automatically tagged afterwards by Audials, thereby ensuring that your music collection is of a uniform high standard.
Especially when editing large collections of music, Audials provides assistance with the mass processing. For example, if a spelling mistake is found in an ID3 tag of an artist's name, Audials One can quickly and easily correct all of the affected tracks. The powerful in-place editor allows convenient adding of additional tags, also during recording.
Audials One includes an audio editor optimized for editing pieces of music. The editor can be used cut and normalize songs, to add fade-ins or fade-outs or to export parts of a song. Use the ringtone editor to create ringtones from pieces of music.
In most cases, retroactive fine tuning is not necessary because Audials normalizes music to a uniform volume and cuts songs automatically. Fading can be preset for radio recordings. During the recording, Audials provides support for an optimal recording level with the level meter, dialogue information and auto-detection.
Audials offers an abundance of possibilities to structure your music collection according to various criteria to suit your individual taste and personal preferences. Audials is also great at managing music on your PC and in the cloud and at transferring them quickly and easily to mobile devices.
Audials One immediately detects when a smartphone is connected to the PC via a cable. In Audials One's music collection, you can view the music files that are on your PC and smartphone in a shared overview and simply transfer the music you want in no time.
What's also great about Audials is that you can set your connected smartphone as the storage location, so that the music is then directly transferred to your mobile device!
Audials Play Apps lets you connect your home PC to your Android/iOS smartphone or tablet via the internet to transfer music wherever you are in the world.
Audials One provides you with a high level of comfort and many different ways to browse and structure your media. With folders for artists, subfolders for albums and hits, Audials makes life easy for you.
You can define how your collection is structured according to your own rules and even have Audials restructure it.
A lot of things have already been planned on Audials One to make things easier for you. This means that all your generated files are automatically and appropriately named without you having to worry.
However, you can also customize this: Choose from over 25 included file name guidelines. Or even define your very own rules for how you want the file names and paths to be determined based on the tags of the music tracks and movie files.
What's best is that entire media collections can be reorganized at any time!
Spotify, Deezer and other streaming services offer audiobooks as audio streams. Audials can record these streams to record audiobooks for you and save them as an MP3, WMA or AAC. Audiobooks are also available as downloads from Audible. Audials also helps here with converting in top quality:
Car radios, stereo systems and many other devices are often unable to play audiobooks with DRM copy protection. This can be extremely annoying. Audials is able to legally and quickly resolve this problem for you:
Simply drag the audiobook into Audials with your mouse, then click the Start button and in minutes you will receive an hour-long audiobook converted to an MP3, WMA or ACC!
You can use Audials to convert audiobooks with and without chapters into MP3 files for all devices. Audial's audiobook libraries, like Apple iTunes, provide a virtual CD-ROM drive. Audials then burns the audiobook virtually into top-quality MP3 files.
Audials software converts all types of unprotected and protected audio files reliably and in top quality. Simply import the file, select your desired target format and off you go!

All of the important radio streaming formats (MP3, WMA, AAC, Shoutcase, Icecast) can be used.
Another unique aspect is the fact that Audials is able to monitor up to 50,000 radio stations at once. Audials is the only software that is able to document the entire online radio program which enables it to direct you to the station that is playing the track you're looking for or that suits your taste in music best.
Simply make a list of songs or artists you want in Music -> Wish and Audials will quickly find the right station to record from.
If you've recorded thousands of songs, it's likely that you'll want to keep your music collection tidy. This is what the MyMusic tab in the Music section of Audials is for. Here you're able to see how many songs you already have from each artist. If you don't think you have enough songs, you can add the artist to your wish list to find more songs and albums. You can manually specify a genre for the entire music collection of a specific musician. This way you'll be able to see how strongly each genre is represented in your collection.
With the music manager, you can rename as many songs at once or assign a different genre as you like. For example, have all alternative songs been accidentally saved as pop? Or should an artist be assigned to a certain genre? This can be corrected with just a few clicks in the context menu of the respective genre or artist or in the item display at the bottom right in Audials.
Build a large music collection in no time! Choose a country and maybe a genre and start mass recording. Audials will record up to 100 radio stations at the same time and save the songs as separate audio files.
Many songs can be assigned to several genres. If you've selected a specific genre, enter it before starting the mass recording. So you will always have order in your music recordings.
Almost two milion English-language and international podcasts with countless episodes about sports, health, technology, science, culture etc. are available to you at the click of a mouse. You can play or download podcasts. Subscribe to podcasts to automatically get the latest episodes. You will see all your podcasts in Podcast -> My audio.
Choose a genre and/or a country to discover new podcasts. To see relevant results, set your preferred language. Or are you looking for a specific podcast? Then type it in the search bar.
If you use the search in Load podcasts, you will always see the latest podcast episode. Click the " > " icon of the podcast to get all episodes.
Audials sorts all your saved podcast episodes by title. So you always keep track of your audio files.
With Audials you always have access to your favourite radio stations wherever you are. With the Audials Radio App you can also access your internet radio stations on the go on your smartphones and tablets with the operating systems Android and iOS.
When it comes to radio recordings, the Android PRO version is on the same level as a PC. Audials Live works on any web browser without the app!
Record movies and entire series in unmatched picture quality
Amazon, Netflix, Disney+ and Paramount+ provide their own self-produced movies and series as video streaming by means of a fee-based service. You can read here which video streams can be recorded with Audials.
Audials does not attempt to circumvent copy rights, but instead creates legal private copies by recording the streamed content exclusively from legal sources.
You will get the features described on this page with Audials One or Audials Movie.
What sets Audials apart from all other tools is that it is the only software to offer the necessary configuration in the form of tiles for all important services, which you can use for your recordings in one click!
Simply select the source you want to record and Audials will record your movies and series using the Recording Schedule with the best recording method for that particular service! (For some websites, it is sufficient to copy or drag the video URL into Audials.)
These presets are also regularly checked and adjusted by Audials as a single service for each generation.
If you happen to be using a streaming service that is not available on Audials as a pre-configured tile, you are still able to record it by clicking Other Source / Screen Recording.
Most tools simply record the screen. However, the rescaling of video images reduces the quality of the recording. Only by directly recording the PC's graphics card can the highest quality be guaranteed.
This process is technically complex and requires a large number of adjustments to be made to the browsers and the operating system. No other software is able to do this the way Audials does. You will receive the highest quality recordings.
To compensate for fluctuations in the user's internet bandwidth, Amazon, Netflix and other services send their video streams in separate sections, each of which may be coded differently.
Many tools fail when recording this kind of adaptive streaming. However, Audials is able to reconstruct this adaptive streaming into a single movie after recording without any disruptive artifacts or visible transitions. It then saves it without any loss of quality.
Audials One can record any video streaming from the internet in top quality and then save it as an MP4, H.264 or another video file format with additional movie tags. Audials One comes with a recording planner. This enables users to record several films in a row or even entire seasons of series.
Modern video streaming is based on the HTML5 standard. In this process, the movie that is encrypted according to the EME standard (encrypted media extensions) is transmitted, then decrypted in the browser by a CDM module supplied by the provider and forwarded to the graphics card. Audials is 100% compatible for this and is able to record these streams for you.
Audials does not attempt to circumvent copy rights, but instead creates legal private copies by recording the streamed content exclusively from legal sources.
Video recordings push PCs to their limits: It's the higher resolutions such as Full HD that are particularly demanding in terms of performance, as every frame of a movie has to be recorded. With 25 frames per second and a movie lasting 90 minutes, we are looking at 135,000 frames. For this reason, Audials has been developed over a period of many years with an emphasis on performance optimization in order to achieve the best possible PC performance for the best possible recording quality.
The encoding takes places on the graphics card which reduces the load on the processor and enables videos to be produced in even higher quality. Graphics card encoding works on the most popular graphics cards (Nvidia, AMD, Intel).
Video streaming can be transmitted at different FPS (frames per second) frame rates. The most common rates are 25 FPS or 29.97 FPS. Audials recognizes the frame rate and can save the recording in the precise frame rate. This makes the recording look exactly like the original.
The format of video files is important because it determines the file size and whether the file can be played back on the end devices. Audials comes with a powerful encoder engine and generates all common video file formats like MP4, H.264, H.265, 3GP, AVI, FLV, MKV, MOV, WMV and more.
Audials provides a variety of device profiles for PCs, game consoles, tablets and smartphones from various manufacturers. The default settings focus on providing the highest quality. However, you can also choose to use a space-saving file size.
Even with high-speed recordings, Audials ensures the highest quality by accelerating the video playback and saving it frame by frame. Like this, you will get a 120 min film on your hard drive within an hour. To do this, set the 2x recording speed in the settings before recording.
Alternatively, choose the parallel recording. Audials plays and records several video sections parallelly, like this you will get your video faster. That works for Amazon Video and Netflix.
Audials offers an integrated browser for streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, as well as for livestreams like Twitch. This allows you to search for videos in Audials more conveniently than ever before and start recording immediately. Alternatively, Audials supports recording from web browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
It is now possible to watch and record Netflix in Chrome and Firefox browsers in Full HD (1080p) with no loss of quality. In the Video streaming view in Audials, click on the Netflix tile and follow the instructions in the small window that will open. You can also choose whether you want to record in 1080p or require 5.1 surround sound.
For Netflix and Amazon, Audials adds the film tags automatically so that you do not need to do anything!
Audials saves recordings from other sources automatically under the correct name. It also features a search engine for movie descriptions.
This allows you to add movie tags to your new recordings and existing movie files. Audials scans the internet to find the correct movie summary, the actors involved, the director, the genre and a lot more, and saves all of this to the movie file in just one click.
Audials One is able to record any online video stream in Chrome or Firefox in top quality and then save it as an MP4, H.264, and in other formats including movie tags.
Simply create a list of movies in the Audials recording schedule. To do so, you simply have to let each movie be briefly started on your browser and Audials will register the movie for recording.
Audials will then process the list and record all the movies for you, providing you with your very own collection of movies. Sounds great, doesn't it?
Small tip: When it comes to series, you don't need the batch recorder. Simply activate the Autoplay function in Netflix and click on the Netflix tile in Audials. Audials will then record the entire season for you!
Audials One enables you to comfortably watch the live streams of TV channels and record and save them as MP4, WMV or any other video file format.
Audials offers a broad selection based on country, category, TV channel, programme and series episodes. With the search function you can quickly and directly access what you are looking for. You can also jump from station to station and mark your favourites.
Show all content in any size
In Video, Audials shows you more than 10,000 video podcasts in different languages. Audials sorts them by date, popularity, language or content. Dive into topics such as sports, comedy, technology, science, society, health, art and others. You can set your preferred language to only get relevant results.
In the search you will see the last podcast episode. Go to the podcast's detail view to see the previous episodes as well.
Save all the podcast episodes that interest you. Add your favorite podcasts to favorites or subscribe to them to get the latest episodes automatically. You can see all your video podcasts perfectly sorted in Video -> My Videos.
Audials offers over 100 live video streams from TV channels from all over the world.
These include CNN for the USA, numerous BBC streams for the UK, NHK World for Japan and France 2 - 5 for France. Italy is included with the RAI stations and Spain as well as other countries are also represented.
In Video you not only see content available online such as TV, streaming and video podcasts, but also all your own videos. Audials sorts films that you have recorded from Netflix or Amazon Prime Video by genre. All episodes of a series are grouped together so that you can find everything quickly.
If you don't like the automatic tagging, you can rearrange videos using drag and drop. To edit all tags like title, director, genre, year etc., click the pencil icon of the video and select Tags. Don't like the existing tags? Then use the movie tag search engine.
Some streaming providers show advertisements, recaps or trailers at the beginning of a film. Audials makes it easy for you to cut out unwanted content from your recordings. The cropper allows you to manually trim frame by frame so that you will get a perfect video file.
With the cropper you can also easily remove annoying black bars in the video. Export your favorite movie scenes as new files while preserving the original video.
In Audials there are several ways to add subtitles during the recording: Activate them in the streaming source and have them rendered directly into the video or saved as a subtitle layer. Alternatively, Audials can search the web for subtitles in any language and also save them as a separate subtitle layer.
After recording, you can use the subtitle search to add subtitles as a layer in any language. Saving them as a separate layer allows you to see them even when playing on other devices, for example on your TV. Also, you can remove the subtitles at any time.
Another way to get subtitles is to have them translated in Audials.
Audials can recognize and cut out disruptive advertisements during the recording. Alternatively, you can also remove them later, because Audials automatically marks them for you. You can get rid of them with one click.
Sometimes you cannot hear what the movie characters are saying because the background noise is too loud. If you add a second audio track with Audials, you can adjust the sound.
Audials is a valuable assistant when it comes to converting many videos into the right format or making film dialogues more audible with speech boost. Add all the videos you want to enhance to a queue, and Audials will take care of everything for you.
For videos and movies, you can select a device profile optimized for your player and you will receive video files optimally adapted to your screen resolution and the performance of your devices with the most suitable output format and without any loss of quality.

The following parameters can also be defined individually:
Audials One can also be used to add the necessary details to movies and series. Audials One searches the internet and provides you with short descriptions, a list of actors, the director, genre, and a whole lot more of information to save.
Those who edit videos know that over time, many versions of videos accumulate on the hard drive. Of course, you also want to be able to find the original file. Audials consolidates all versions of a video, making it easy for you to switch between them. Your collection remains well-structured and organized.
Audials is compatible with the most popular internet browsers Google Chrome, Firefox and Edge. All internet browsers behave differently when playing back and streaming content.
It is therefore important that Audials and its specialists continuously test the functionality every week in order to ensure that your videos are always saved in the highest quality and to recommend the best browser for recording. This service is included within an Audials generation.
From time to time, streaming services optimize their websites, players and apps. Internet browsers are updated on a regular basis and even the Windows operating system reacts differently according to these changes or its own updates.
With its free service, Audials ensures that you can continue recording week after week for an entire Audials generation.

Make videos sharper, more fluent and more vibrant
Videos of poor quality can significantly impair the viewing experience. Harness the immense potential of Artificial Intelligence to improve the resolution and color of your movies, series, and videos, as well as eliminate stuttering.
In the past, videos of inferior quality could only be enhanced to a limited extent because, at too low a resolution, the video lacks information. However, AI has seen thousands of movies and learned what information it needs to supplement your video with.
Modern televisions can upscale video content to higher resolutions in real-time. Since this has to be done very quickly, the results are limited.
The AI used by Audials has much more time, can utilize the full power of your graphics card, and therefore achieves much better results by sharpening even the smallest detail.
The AI in Audials multiplies the video's resolution and can depict the details and contours shown in it more sharply. The result: Your video looks better, especially on larger screens. This works for videos that are many years old as well as those you've taken with your smartphone.
Have you cropped a video so that only a certain area of the original video is visible? This gives you a lower resolution. You can upscale the new video with AI, making it look like you only recorded that particular section.
Does your video not play perfectly smoothly, especially during rapid movements? Artificial Intelligence solves this problem by generating additional frames. This makes movements smoother. Fast-paced car chases in action movies now become an extraordinary cinematic pleasure.
With Audials One ultra, you can create silky smooth slow motions because Audials One Ultra not only slows down the video but also adds additional frames. This avoids a slideshow effect in your slow-motion videos. Enjoy velvety smooth motion sequences, for example in sports scenes or emotional moments.
With HDR conversion, Audials' AI makes the colors of your video shine more vividly and enhances contrasts by improving the color depth from 8 to 10 bits. You get a video with 64 times as many color shades as a conventional video without HDR support.
With Audials, you can improve videos that are blurry, where the colors on large screens are not intense enough, or that stutter. Whether you want to improve just one of these or all at once - Audials calculates how long your computer is expected to take. Before you start AI optimization, you will see a preview of your video and be able to compare it to the original. The difference is most noticeable when zooming in.
You can pause and resume AI optimization at any time. Even if you have turned off or restarted your PC in the meantime, Audials One 2024 ultra will continue where it left off.
Audials offers a wide range of AI models for video enhancement tailored to different needs:
Increase Resolution
Frame Inserter
HDR Color
Artificial Intelligence (abbreviated as AI) is a subfield of computer science that deals with the creation and application of machines and software capable of autonomously performing tasks and learning. AI systems can solve complex tasks by recognizing patterns in data and responding to them. They can understand language, interpret images, make decisions, and adapt to new information. AI is used in many areas, including robotics, speech recognition, image processing, and predictive analytics.
For videos of poor quality, one of the issues is the resolution being too low. This means that the video lacks information, which could not be easily restored. Existing video software couldn't help in this. Artificial Intelligence can supplement this information, as it has learned what good quality videos look like from countless video examples. So, if you have a video of poor quality that is very important to you, only with AI can you significantly improve it.
HDR (High Dynamic Range) means that a digital image is taken at least three times: with low, normal, and high exposure. Special software combines these three images into one HDR image. The background of the HDR technique is that digital images can't optimally reproduce brightness differences in nature. The result is over- or under-exposed recordings, where not all details are recognizable. Thanks to HDR, more details become visible, many more colors can be represented, and the contrast is stronger.
Through HDR conversion, you will see 64 times as many colors in your video as in a conventional image. Why is that? Digital images have the three color channels of red, green, and blue, and for each of these color channels, there are 256 brightness levels (2 to the power of 8), which is 8 bits. In total, in a non-HDR digital image, you see 2 to the power of 8 to the power of 3 colors, which is 16.8 million. HDR offers a color depth of 10 bits or more, resulting in over a billion colors in total. You will see them if your TV or monitor supports HDR.
