youtube downloader issues
i am suddenly having issues with YTD although its working by means of downloading videos etc its not all the time pasting videos like it should. i checked the compatabilty of it & it should windows xp? i use vista. so have tryed the using as admin to work it better ,although it did work ,it soon quickly went back to no pasting. so now i have tryed searching for another YTD which runs on vista,but cannot find one,though one that i did download was not vista but did install ,but does look different from the one i am tying to use, & yes it does NOT download videos properly. so the question is ,is there a YTD out there i can use which will work with vista & properly paste videos? i will be back late tomorow with any replys

What you really need is someone who knows their onions to sit down and have a right good look at what the hell you are doing...last time i really looked you had 2 different internet connections and was passing stuff over via dvd's from machine to machine as well
And what in the 7's name in Westeros does pasteing a video mean? I'd find someone who knows a bit about computers (ignore any quote from cmorris ) and get them to properly sort you out once and for all; and for the nth^(n*90000)th time you'll get reminded that youtube pays its way via advertising and thus does like to discourage people taking its content without paying the fee of 2 mins of something you cannot stand or afford

Just watch the videos in a browser. YouTube is a streaming service - bookmark your favorites and you can watch them as many times as you want.
I'm guessing you want to download stuff and burn it to disk to watch on TV. Any such file conversion will result in a loss of quality. This is especially true of 1080px HD YouTube content - burning to dvd would reduce the size to 576px, with lower resolution (and lower quality). The best way to watch YouTube HD content is in a browser, on a (pref 27"+) HD monitor - anything else is inferior. Also, the audio on downloaded and converted clips is often out of sync but when viewed online is perfectly in sync. YouTube go to a lot of trouble to circumvent downloader apps - for a reason. They have to protect the creative work of singers, songwriters, musicians, and film makers. If YouTube wanted you to steal their stuff, there'd be a big button marked 'Click here to download' - I don't see one, do you ? YouTube is free - just use it as intended. |

You could try Freemake Downloader and the video converter, it's worked for me in the past whenever I've wanted anything from You Tube.

I'd like to see a link for YouTube's very own downloader. I guess what you mean is some dodgy software that has an unauthorized YouTube logo on its website. YouTube Terms and Conditions quote : 9.

So it's a bit like shoplifting - stealing stuff for your own use.

Such Content may not be downloaded - how can this be a grey area. Piracy is piracy - it's not an opinion. A lot of people choose to ignore copyright and steal music, movies, software - that's their choice. You, however, seem to justify copyright infringement by saying that you have video's on YT and don't mind if anyone downloads them. Is your homemade stuff the same quality as the pro music vids that cost tens of millions of $$ to produce ? Even if your stuff is equal, you still don't have the right to steal other people's work. FWIW - I use Vimeo to show my 3D graphics vids and tutorials. I pay £200 p.a. for their HD service. There's a lot of hard work involved esp in tutorials (they are all 1 hour+), but I let anyone download them for repeated study. I also supply source files and materials to download. A lot of people sell tutorials, but I give mine away - that's my choice. Also, when I was younger, I worked as a musician. Again, a lot of work (and cash) was involved, and so we charged to get into gigs. In the internet age, things have changed a lot, but musicians still expect to get paid in some way or other. Pirates think people should work for nothing, and everything should be free. Would you work for free ? |

While it is against the T&Cs as posted above, the easiest way is to put an SS between the www. and YouTube.com once you've found the video you want to download.
e.g.https://www.ssyoutube.com/watch?v=5_sfnQDr1-o |
