Features

[edit]

Cobalt is big on privacy, so it offers a list of features like tunneling, which can hide your IP address, browser information and bypass local network restrictions by passing the file through a metaphorical encrypted "tunnel".[3] Remuxing, which fixes any issues with the uploaded file so it is compatible with older software like Windows Media Player or Vegas Pro, it is also processed locally.[4]

It also has some customizability with file name types, which there are four types, Classic, Basic, Pretty and Nerdy.

  1. Classic: youtube_dQw4w9WgXcQ_1920x1080_h264.mp4
  2. Basic: Video Title (1080p, h264).mp4
  3. Pretty: Video Title (1080p, h264, youtube).mp4
  4. Nerdy: Video Title (1080p, h264, youtube, dQw4w9WgXcQ).mp4
