    If you use firefox, get the following extension:

    https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2390/

    It'll do the job nicely (works for almost all embedded video's, not just youtube).

    No probs. :)

    You'll need the FLV Player to play the .flv files off youtube:

    Yeah I noticed they were flv files so I got a converter that changes them to any other file format which is handy.

    Maybe your version is too old. The current version is 1.5.0.3 I think

    Thats probably it alright, yeah. Those extensions only work with more recent versions.

    I'm at 1.5.0.3 and it works.

    hmmm anyone know any video converters for macs?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 387 ✭✭dango


    For IE, play the whole video then open up your temporary internet files (C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files) - find the (normally largest) file with a weird file name such as tfdbhxdcfb.flv and copy somewhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,191 ✭✭✭Unpossible


    your temporary internet files
    that makes sense, and all youtubes files are .flv ?? I assume the same would be true for opera?

    VLC will play the FLV pretty well.
