Realplay 10G has this feature.

There are many freewares on the internet which can help you download the youtube video via the URL. I (used to) use Youtube Downloader 3000 v1.0.1.0 (now-a-days I am more into torrents..slurp...so much bandwidth, so little time!)

The video will be downloaded as a .flv file which, again, can be played using the same player or other compatible payers.

To convert, again, you have freewares to convert to whichever format you want...just ask google baba..

Hi Keith

I don't use any software, I just use [this bookmarklet|http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2008/04/download-youtube-videos-as-mp4-files.html].

On the YouTube site, if you execute the bookmarklet, then a "Download as mp4" link appears in the grey box on the right of the video. Easy as.

I'll leave it to you (and Google) to work out how to add a bookmarklet, and how to convert MP4s to other formats.

Cheers

Dom

So, Javascript is "no software"?

[Former Member]

That's right Rainer - he doesn't need "a software", he just needs a bookmarklet. Thanks for your contribution.

Cheers mate

so easy question.

download any web-based video with RealPlayer--the lastest version of Realplayer!!!

[rainer_hbenthal]

Use firefox instead IE and install the add-in downloadhelper.

With FF the internet looks very nice when u use Adblock+ and NoScript in addition.

i would go with chrome !

Peace,

Chrome is ****. Its from Google, and google earns money with advertising, so i dont beleive that there will be any plugin blocking elements.

Chrome has a unique ID which is transmitted everytime you are typing something in the search field. I do not want all my internet activities logged by google.

And to be honest i do not care if have to wait a half second or one second until the page is rendered. I love that scripts can be blocked, that flashing advertisment can be blocked, and that i can have my own css style si that every webpage looks like i want it.

Chrome offers nothing like that, its just a hype and i do not understand why so many people like this minimal browser. Its Spyware, covered as a browser.

[Former Member]

Strong words...real strong words there I agree with you on some points. But you have to understand that Google made it open source, which means that pop-upblockers will be available soon (I hope) and as far as the Unique ID goes, I am quite sure it will be cracked too.

I am in no position right now to say how I feel about Chrome, I liked a few things and didnt like a few things. Will have to see how things pan out in the future..

Chrome is not open source. Chrome is based on the open source project Chromium, but Chrome itself is closed source.

And if there are really addons which will blocking allow, the speed (which is nit so incredible as a lot of people are sayng) the speed of chrome will lower.

But Google will not allow blocking of elements, cause this is their main income.

OMG !

You must be really pissed off with the Chrome hype..lols..i just said it looks good...i never said am using it or use it ...functionality point of view better is always Firefox...!

But just to match with your comments i conclude **** is ****..however it looks...;-)

Peace !

[Former Member]

Yeah you are right, my bad. Chromium is open source - Chromium is the project on which Chrome is based so I made a technical mistake

So you can build yourself a "new" browser out of Chromium in the style that you want and throw chrome out I guess...

In fact, that puts me in the mood for some Browser hacking. Will download the source tonight and start working on it.

I would rather use "Iron" as browser:

It does not do all the tracking the original Google browser does

I think is way better to download the mp3.

That would be like the people who used to pirate cassettes recorded from the radio in the early 90's

[Former Member]

I think Apple do provide a download that is designed to allow you to convert YouTube clips for viewing on an I-Pod. Only works on Macs as far as i know.

Memory tells me it's called Tubesock, never used it though.

And that's what made you decide to join the SAP Community Network? Funny

Could be a form of high-level cross-posting at the website level...
