So say the above is in the address bar...

http://www.youtube.com/watch.php?v=Mz-bg6IjHbQ

Take the part thats in bold above. Remember it, we will come back to that.

get_video.php?l=165&video_id=

Now take the code above. Right click and cut it... and go to the original addressbar...

http://www.youtube.com/watch.php?v=Mz-bg6IjHbQ

remove the part of the address thats in bold here. (Note: The code after the "/"up to the "=")

and paste the get video part into it. which should now look like this....

http://www.youtube.com/get_video.php?l=165&video_id=Mz-bg6IjHbQ

a window should pop up asking if you want to download the document, why not.
After that you have to find a video conversion program, Im using the PSP video 9

Wow thats great I have asked for this quite a few times and havent been able to fing anything. Didnt youtube let you download the videos before though? Anyways thanks.

 

[Cante-up]

thx it's working great

 

[RAPresentah]

yah it worked well, only thing is after the conversion process the reults arent so good, it shows up real pixelated like. what are you guys using to convert??

i tried riva & total video converter and its the same - what is this PSP Video 9? does that work good. i was looking for something that allows .flv directly to dvd but couldnt find anything

 

[Cheaptimes]

If you guys are using firefox, a quicker way is to download the "Greasemonkey" extension. When you play youtube videos a red bar comes up at the top with a link and all you have to do is click it to start the download. It works for google video too. I havent tried it for anything else tho.

^^ damn, imma DL greasemonkey riight now !! good looks.

i asked this awhile ago and T-Spoon PMed me the response:

first you gotta clear out ur temp internet files
then u gotta play tha youtube vide entirely
then go to temp internet files and find a php (i think) file more than, i'd say bout a megabyte
then copy paste that file to desktop
right clicc file and rename and change extension from php to flv
get freeware called cinemaforge
input flv file to cineforge and convert it to wmv
bingo!!!!!

this one's prettymuch the same thing but a little different. end result is still the same. a little bit more work though with getting the url right, here it is anyways, got this from the sicctunes user guide:

Ok, everybody knows how dope www.youtube.com is. It's got tons of great videos. The only problem is that you can't download them. You can only watch them on the site. I found out how to download them and I put together some instructions on how to do it. I hope it's clear enough.......

1) Keep this link handy for #5 below: http://youtube.com/get_video.php?l=165&video_id=
2) Go to the screen where you watch a video on youtube.com
3) Scroll down to where it says "Video URL (Permalink)"
4) Copy what's AFTER "http://www.youtube.com/?v="
5) Put the address from #1 and #4 together in order. It will look something like this: http://youtube.com/get_video.php?l=165&video_id=1rRl2qN-8j0
6) Download the file. It will be called "Get Video"
7) Add the .flv file extension to the end of that file name (get video.flv)
8) Download CinemaForge http://www.download.com/CinemaForge/3000-2169_4-10496506.html?tag=pdp_prod
and then convert the file! (Make sure you convert it to .avi because I can't fast forward when I make it a .wmv)

Enjoy.....

i don't see that red bar...... i DLed the extension and restarted firefox and evyerhting. i see that monkey at the bottom toolbar of firefox but it doesnt seem to do anything.. it says its enabled. what else do i needa do? where's the red bar supposed to be on top of??!?

that cheaptimes guide doesnt involve all that changing the format to flv, but it still works.
