Answer 5

Download the flvs (flash video files) from YouTube you want and convert them straight to dvd with WinFF (freeware video converter).



How to video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ItYOLNbBeI



Here's 2 free EZ ways to download the flvs



1. FireFox Add-on Video DownloadHelper (this is the best/easiest/fastest by far imho) **

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006

Using DownloadHelper

http://www.downloadhelper.net/manual.php



2. YouTube flv (flash video) download sites

http://keepvid.com/ (I like this one)

http://www.videodl.org/

http://youtubia.com/

http://www.techcrunch.com/get-youtube-movie/





WinFF video converter (freeware) converts flv, wmv, avi, mov, etc

http://www.winff.org/





***WinFF can convert multiple files (even of different formats) at the same time - even convert a bunch of YouTube's flv files to your computer or even straight to a DVD.



To convert to DVD with WinFF:

Just choose the dvd format from the 'convert to' dropdown

screenshot #1: http://thumbsnap.com/v/EeEYG0dg.jpg

(NTSC DVD, pick good or fast LQ quality, as upconverting to the larger HQ screensize will look terrible from a 320x240 YouTube) and then pick your dvd-r drive with a disc in it (ex E or F etc) as the output folder***

screenshot #2: http://thumbsnap.com/v/nNpSNiX7.jpg ]



I've done this and the quality isn't great, but it's not that bad either.

Answer 8

there are ad-ones for the FireFox for download the videos on youTube



to learn more add-ones on Firefox please refer to the link below

Answer 9

It can be done, but the video quality when saved to DVD and viewed on a TV will be pretty lousy.



The following YouTube video will explain how to download and convert the downloaded files into .avi files which can then be burned into DVD format by the free program DVD Flick at http://www.dvdflick.net/



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7s3c1OZiHs&feature=related



The thing is that YouTube videos are not of very high quality, especially when blow up to the size of your normal television set and there is nothing you can do about that.



Also television tends to cut the sides off of videos.



But still you might have luck, so here's wishing...

koyote soft apparently has something but i cant work it out

Answer 11

I think there used to be a few programs that could, but they were often expensive and ended up not working anyway. The way I download videos from YouTube is with an add-on for firefox called video downloader. It just lets you download the flash files from YouTube (FLV). These can play in VLC player i think, or you can download some video converting programs to get them to avi or whatever format you would like.

Answer 14

For any kind of Videos there's :

http://www.youtube.com/

http://www.metacafe.com

http://www.funnyplace.org

http://www.movie6.net

http://www.dailymotion.com/us

http://liveleak.com/

http://megarotic.com/ (better not)

To download videos from YouTube and any other site :

Get Firefox from http://www.mozilla.com/en-us/firefox/...

And then install the Download Helper extension from https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3006/... or this one Video Downloader https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2390....

It works great for me, whenever youtube is update it still work.



Since the videos are in the .flv format you need to get a flv player. You can get a very good one (and completely free ) here http://www.download.com/flv-player/3000-...



If you want to convert them into another format ( mobile phone, iPods,psp,wmv, mp4...and anything else) use this awesome free program called Super http://www.erightsoft.com/super.html...



Also you can use this site http://vixy.net/ and copy/paste the url's from the page with the video there but personally I'd recommend using Firefox



Firefox is the best !!!



And for movies, games, music... and anything else use http://www.torrentportal.com/ and http://www.bittorrent.com/ and http://www.torrentspy.com/

To download from this site you need a torrent program like these :

BitComet http://www.bitcomet.com/ or

Azureus http://azureus.sourceforge.net/

Answer 16

this will help you...Use 'zillatube'. it will help you to easily transfer youtube video onto a cd/dvd. This is the fastest way.



Just use it to download and convert to mpg format. Ensure you use dvd conversion setting to convert to better quality mpg video format.



Then put those videos onto a dvd with your burning suite. Usually my friends use nero though.



It works very well ....just yahoo or google search for "zillatube"
