Recording YouTube Videos

I for one have found Alex's videos very insightful. One thing I wanted to do - was have the ability to actually have them onboard for viewing for myself and new crew members.

I found this article:

How to Record YouTube Video

But, I didn't want to pay for a wizzy UI program, just wanted something simple to use and do the conversion, such that I could copy the files to a SanDisk media card and slide into my Polariod multi-media tv (thanks for whomever started that thread btw)...

I went to Downloads.com and pulled:


http://www.download.com/YouTube-Downloader/3000-2071_4-10647340.html


It lacks a snazzy UI - but I have done the test(s) and it works well. Once the video is downloaded you can convert it to a variety of formats including WMV and the IPOD format being two of them....

Just thought this might be interesting for some of you that might like to have the reference videos available without being attached to the net...

You can also download them using Real Player, which is available for free. It has a little gizmo that pops up when you are seeing a video that allows it to be downloaded to Real Player.

The second link I guess got corrupted:

YouTube Downloader - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com

try that one its free been using it all morning

Regards to the Real Player - thanks for the tip but I - personally - do not use the player and no intentions to ever to do so - but nice tip for those that do use it...

Cool site, thanks for the link & info Jody.

On another note, one of the neatest little video cameras around for uploading to YouTube is the Flip. Compact, simple and inexpensive. Flip Video
