hi guys, im looking for a software that would enable me to download contents from youtube. I've searched around but found only shareware. I know of flashgot but this time i'm looking for a software with more capabilities.

i hope you guys could recommend me some.THanks

I would recommend save2pc.

moyea flvdownloader?

Vdownloader is the best one I used yet

http://vixy.net/
Just enter a YouTube URL and the website will automatically converts it to a format you choose to be downloaded later.

i recommend real player when u ll download with a click a banner ll appear if the video is regonize by real player then u can click download u even can view with real player.. so download the latest real player now!

Try Veoh player. google got the download !

use Real Player ... .. Using it now. Nice and easy

Free Download Manager
can convert to other format and easy to use.

if you're using Firefox, look for this add-on called DownloadHelper... it's very simple to use and it saves the videos off Firefox's cache

Media Pirate addon from firefox

I recommend this as well, but maybe due to the popularity of this site, it gets clogged down quite alot of time that will stop you from downloading momentarily.

I suggest Orbit Downloader! It's clean and free . They even have guide to do it at the FAQ section.
Orbit

i'm using this too... recommended to you too... or www.youtubex.com.... just copy and paste the url of the video into their website and download...

but some of you tube downloader took a long time convert the file.

Is it normal or is it my 56k broadband streamyx powered broadband?

Use Firefox, install Unplug plugin, go to the page of the video you wanna rip, right click and click on Unplug. Done.

is there any youtube downloader that we don't have to wait it to load?

i'm not sure with the one that no need to wait for it to load, but actually, to get a video from youtube , we do not need any software. after a video has finished loading, simply go to temporary file[can be found in coutrol panel>internet option>history>view files] find the ones from youtube and with a big file size. copy the file out to desktop[or whereever you want] and rename it with anything ending with .flv . done~
if you want to convert it into .avi, find a converter~

^^

i agree. the most rudimentary way to get a video off any website. can use for utube, dailymotion, crunchyroll etc etc. only if u use IE though. usually for IE, the caches are true to the original ones. like for utube, the vids are saved in files called 'get_video' . these files are extensionless (???) , so u have to rename it to <whatever>.flv

for Mozilla, they kinda encode it a bit. so it wont appear like get_video but most likely EJSH34LCMS. but the size of the files will give it away. try renaming the files in mozilla cache to .flv and try playing it.

FLV players that i recommend is VLC Player. very versatile player, can play almost anything. almost.

Use Mozilla Firefox Add on plugin and try this : Free Video Downloader ... Simple and its best and can download 95% of all website Flashy file!

yup yup yup! for mozilla users the best addon is FREE VIDEO DOWNLOADER and MEDIA PIRATES.

orbit downloader also can do this job..

cool stuff thanks yea

this is my fav aswell

if u are using Maxthon browser, download video functionalities has been embedded to the browser itself
refer my post HERE

what is a maxthon browser ? btw a stand alone program would be nicer imo.

this one is whole lot easier

u are asking without even have the goodwill to look at the links posted

My friend recommended me Ares Tube. Does it's job.

google TubeHunter

If you are using Firefox, install add-on called 'Fast Video Download'. Only one click needed to save any embedded .flv files in YouTube to your local disk. Good luck.

use total video converter to convert the flv to any format u want

I would recommend to using video downloadhelper



The easy way to download Web videos from hundreds of YouTube-like sites. This works also for audio and picture galleries.

DownloadHelper is a tool for web content extraction. Its purpose is to capture video and image files from many sites.

Just surf the Web as you are used to, when DownloadHelper detects it can do something for you, the icon gets animated and a menu allows you to download files by simply clicking an item

For instance, if you go to a YouTube page, you'll be able to download the video directly on your file system. It also works with MySpace, Google videos, DailyMotion, Porkolt, iFilm, DreamHost and others.

When you are on a page containing links to images or movies, you can download some or all of them at once. Moving the mouse over the items in the menu will highlights the links directly in the page to make sure they are the ones you want to pick up.

DownloadHelper also allows you to download files one by one, so that you keep bandwidth to surf for other stuff to download.

To modify your preferences, like changing the download directory, right-click on the icon and choose "Preferences".

When you first install the extension, your browser is redirected to a welcome page with links to a user manual at http://www.downloadhelper.net/manual.php and a faq at http://www.downloadhelper.net/faq.php

This does not change your homepage setting and the welcome page won't appear anymore.

Support can be obtained from http://www.downloadhelper.net/support.php
Works with:

* Firefox Firefox: 1.5 - 3.0b1
