check it out it will dowload just about any youtube video and convert it to just about any format, including mp3, wmv, quicktime, ipod, etc.
I've been testing it out qand so far it has worked flawlesly, and is dead simple to use, all you need to do is paste a Youtube URL into a text field and click ok
What's the quality like when you convert it?Quote:

Also, the program has settings where you can choose a higher quality at the cost of increased file size and slower processing time.Quote:

Videora's better.
Not sure what works on read tube, I know how to download flash videos such as youtube manually though, I think redtube is flash so it should work with that too... if it uses windows media then it's a piece of piss to save it anyway
If it's definetly a flash video then it will be something called an 'flv' file.
(this will still work if it's not an FLV(most are), but you'll have to search for a wmv/avi/mpeg etc instead)
open the page with the video on it, using internet explorer. click 'view' in your menu bar (next to file etc) and go down to source...
you'll get a box with loads of programming mumbo jumbo in it.
If you press ctrl and F you'll get a search box. Search for flv
it'll take you to a url, if it's red tube I'm guessing something along the lines of [ignore this]http://www.redtube.com/pornvid45353.flv[/ignore this] or something like that.
That will be the location of the file you want to save, copy and paste that address.
To save it you have to turn it into a link that you can click on, email it to yourself or send a personal message to your self on here with it in.
Now all you need to do is right click on it and select 'save target as' and hey presto - you've got a copy of the video file saved on your PC
All you need now is a bit of software to convert teh file into what ever you want. Don't have one any more but I'm sure if you go on Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com and look for an flv converter.
This is what you had to do before programs came out that took the flv off the site for you (videora etc all do this exact thing for you, just automatically) and it was a bit of a hassle... but if you can't find a program that works on red tube this should definetly work instead :cool:
Nice, wish I knew that before. Anyways, now that you mention it, flv seems to be the default download format for this program, and it looks as though translation to another format is a two stage process. So in that sense, there is nothing too special about the program I found.Quote:

I cannot get it to work on red tube. :mad:
