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

Put the link in and it will download, you will have to convert it to a AVI file or something as FLV cannot be opened by most players.

I think VLC player can open it: http://www.videolan.org/

If using IE7, then try:

then do this:

Just used that link you recommended and downloaded a video, which did indeed open immediately with VLC (which comes as standard on installs of Ubuntu Feisty Fawn I might add).

Thanks for your very useful post

No Problem, im here to help, VLC can open almost any file ( Audio and Video )

Whilst I can play flv's with VLC (Windows), I do find that if I attempt to move the progress slider at the bottom while the movie is playing the movie stops and the bottom portion of the window closes - is it just me?

No, it's the same for me (with Ubuntu).
The technical term for this is 'not searchable'.:rolleyes:
But if you convert it to avi format it then becomes 'searchable' and behaves well.
:cool:

Ah, thanks for confirming. A shame it doesn't inform you of what's going on!

https://www.dvdvideosoft.com has several free tools for downloading from youtube. Which are really easy to use and are a single process, rather than 2 processes.

If you're using a Mac do a web search for TubeTV which can download YouTube etc vids
