YouTube Help

[Snackem]

Does anyone know if it is possible to download a Youtube video? If so how do I do it?

[Matt_E]

Google "Download youtube"

First link

Who'da thunk it?

[Snackem]

I tried a couple of them but my 'vista' computer did not want to cooperate

[Matt_E]

Sounds like you found your problem.

I keep telling you that, don't I?

[Snackem]

You are such a help. . .

[Matt_E]

Because I feel generous tonight, try this: Google "download youtube on vista"

Plenty to choose from, but no guarantees it works.
Or that you can figure it out. :loser:

Hey Matt, I think I hit the jackpot with my wide tray and modded revs.

[Matt_E]

I'll hit the jackpot if I ever get this thing done.

[crab]

You will, just takes time. I wouild hate to add up the hours I have been working on mine.

[Snackem]

Wow with a friend like you. . . I figured it out by the way. . . kind of at least. I found a youtube video made by and 8 year old that walked me through it. He/she lost me a few times and I had to rewind but in the end his/her competency was able to overcome my ineptitude.

don't feel bad Snackdude, I tried for an hour tonight to get my new DVD recorder to work and finally gave up and got a beer.

Is that the new training methodology employed by the SEL Manufacturing facility?


Btw, I have to come across as mean to you because I just have to mask my own ineptitude with (Vista) computers.

holy chit why didn't I think of that, Hey Matt I need that tube of sand I gave you back. . .

[Snackem]

don't feel bad Snackdude, I tried for an hour tonight to get my new DVD recorder to work and finally gave up and got a beer.

i got a beer but then I realized that things did not too good with me sitting in front of my computer in my boxers drinking a beer watching an 8 year old on my computer. . . so i closed the shades and got the whiskey. . .

OK: I'll give you a hand.
Use this program to download the FLV files from You tube:
http://www.orbitdownloader.com/
The "Grab" tool in the program identifies valid FLV files (flash video player) that are on You tube and will "rip" them to your hard drive.
You can then view the files by downloading an FLV player:
http://www.simtel.net/product.download.mirrors.php?id=95201

That's it!
Or, if you want to convert the FLV files to AVI's or WMV's, you can pay for this program- it's excellent:
http://www.smallvideosoft.com/
(look for the Freez FLV to AVI/MPEG/WMV Converter download in the lower right of the page) You can use it for free for a while, but then it locks up and you have to pay for it.

Alright bitches, school's in session:

Download Mozilla Firefox - install it. http://www.mozilla.org/
Download the Mozilla plugin DownloadHelper - install it. http://www.downloadhelper.net/
Download a good .flv player, I like FLV Player - install it. http://www.martijndevisser.com/blog/flv-player/

When you are watching a YouTube video, there will be three little rotating balls just to the right of the address bar, click that and select the video you want to save.

You're welcome.

xoxo

Yours is actually easier, Sho. I forgot about Mozilla.

Download helper rocks! It updates regularly to follow the ways they change the sites to prevent you from downloading.

The way they pull questionable vids (which are the good ones) off Youtube all the time it's nice to snag them.
