I don't know fuck all about YouTube really, and I've found a bunch of videos I want to download but can't find any option.

So, as you've probably guessed, my question to you is can you download videos from YouTube?

[terriblecanyons]

Nope.
But there is software that makes it possible.

EMMAh - if you install the latest version of RealPlayer, you then get the option to download a YouTube video every time you watch one. Hope that helps!

Ahhhh nice, I'll give that a try.

Thanks guys.

I remember stumbling across a website a while back where you would enter the video URL and you could either download the video or just the audio.

there's a few websites that do that, like this one
http://keepvid.com/
(mp4 and vlc files)
you don't have to install any software

[EMMAh]

That sounds even better.

Real Player isn't being completely friendly towards me anyhow.

[EMMAh]

Ohhh and, which do you think it better to use? Or how should I chose?

mp4 or vlc?

[pokkeherrie]

mp4.
it's higher quality and there are more players that can handle it. quicktime for instance.

if you enter the url it gives you two options (vlc or mp4), just right-click save on the link you want to use.

[EMMAh]

Well haha, thanks again!

I tried the flv one first (it's the first link on the page) but it definitely didn't work.

Trying the mp4 at the moment.

[EMMAh]

Yay, it works
