Help getting a youtube video onto my nano 5th gen...

I've been going round and round in circles for what seems like an age...I've downloaded a music video from youtube via realplayer. It's appearing under my recently added items in my itunes library and when I click to convert the format I get a message saying it is already in the correct format (I chose the option to convert it to a file suitable for my ipod via realplayer)...the problem is I cannot seem to move it to a playlist or sync it to my nano!

Am I trying to do the impossible or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    Is this the first time you've tried to load a video onto your iPod?

    For YT downloading I have used this for quite some time and its very straightforward for downloading and converting.

    Maybe your problem lies with realplayer.

    if the video is already MP4 then it should be easy

    open itunes
    select the movies playlist
    drag your movie files to that playlist
