Hi Worms heres a cool piece of software that lets you convert any video file - so you can play it on a media player. Think Youtube file whoooooooho!
1. Go to download.com and search for a piece of software called Media Converter (SA Edition) there are lots of similar programs but this is the only one that worked!
2. Download the software onto your PC, it's free and doesn't take long.
3. Find the video you want on Youtube and download it, I use free program also from download.com called Orbit (which is a download manager) to do this. It will usually 'grab' it as a .flv file which you can't play on a normal media player on your PC.
4. Once you've got the Youtube file open it up in Media Converter, its quite easy once you get this far.
5. Then choose the type of file you want it converted to and click 'CONVERT', I converted the file to a WMV file, thats a Windows Media File that plays on Windows Media Player.
HHAAAAAA HAA HA
Do it, do it nowwwwwwwwwwww.

Do you know of any BBC FLV converters/copiers?
The only one I'm aware of is spoofing an iPhone connection and using Ruby to get the MP4 version...

Or you can just use vixy.net which converts them straight to AVI, MOV or whatever.
Try using UTubeDownloader to download straight from the url as well
Hi Zim,
Thanks for that, I'm always interested in video conversion articles. In the past I shared my tips with this post [URL]http://chat.freeola.com/Web-Development-4-chat/YouTube-videos-on-your-phone-or-PSP--1619.html[/URL]
I've since moved from 'SUPER' to MediaCoder a (sourceforge app) which you might like to take a look at.
I've just tried Media Converter that you mention - using the web interface rather than the Stand Alone version seems to work quite nicely as it can extract the FLV from YouTube and convert to MP4(ipod) etc. all at the same time.
Must buy some more memory cards...
