Have you ever seen a video on YouTube and wanted to put it onto your computer or MP4 player, well you would be pleased to know that there are plenty of services out there that will do that for you.
I am going to talk about one, called DownloadYouTubeVideos.com, to download the video you just insert the URL of the video on YouTube and click the Download button.
You will then be taken to a page where you can download the video, you must now right click on the download link and select Save Target As (IE) or Save Link As (Firefox), change the file type to All Files and give the file a filename, you must add .flv to the end of the filename (Eg, Thevideo.flv).
The video will download. You will need an FLV player or some FLV converting software, for the FLV player i suggest a program called Wimpy FLV, the software is available for both Windows and Mac.
To convert the videos for use on an MP4 player, I use a site called vixy.net, this can both convert straight from YouTube into a whole host of video and audio files, or you can convert the FLV file you just downloaded.
I hope that this has helped, if you have any questions leave them as comments.
