Saving You Tube

[shiny_arse]

Morning IT Gurus,

Wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction of some reputable freeware that can download and save YouTube content and the like.

Was using VDownloader to save video/music clips onto my IPOD but lately their search options are throwing up less and less results and most of the time will not allow a save due to "invalid URL".

Any advice appreciated.

Have you tried tubesucker? I've been using it for a couple of years and have never had any problems with it.

I think that RealPlayer free edition has a 'grab & save' function whereby if you hover over any video clip you get a little pop up which allows you to download & save it with one click of the mouse.

I've used keepvid before:

Easy to use _ just put the URL in and download.

I use the VideoDownloader addon for Firefox. You have to click it while the balloons are still spinning Works on an "adult" site of a similar nature too

I use the free version of this (Real Player SP) and it's easy to use. It offers conversion to other formats (such as Mac, PC and even Blackberry). A pay version is available which allows you to burn it onto CD.DT_Xtremez_30:
