I only just found out abt this in the last few hours, tested it, and yes it does work. How to do it:
1.) You need the URL of the video you want to save.
2.) go to this page, paste in the URL & press download: http://www.youtubex.com/
*paste only the video section of the URL, if it has a '&search=' section on the end cut it off:
So if you had:
Cut it down to this:
3.) What the site doesn't tell you. When you have downloaded the video (to your desktop or wherever), it is an anonymous file type, simply named 'get_video'. Before you can do anything else, you need to manualy re-name the file with the extension '.flv' (this is the flash video media type). Now would also be a good time to name what the video actually is, for later refrence.
So you would go from:
get_video
to
Mescalinum United - We Have Arrived.flv
4.) Now you have two options. You can store the videos as flash videos, and use a flash video player to watch them, like this one: http://www.martijndevisser.com/blog/article/flv-player-updated
or you can convert them to a more friendly format, such as .avi or .mpeg. To do this you need this conversion program: http://www.rivavx.com/index.php?encoder&L=3
*Here is a nice article (with pictures) explaining the process: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/archive/t259578
If anyone needs anything extra software wise, PM me. K
