Downloading and playing YT clips off line

You can download clips of You Tube Video onto your local machine to use off-line. You should check with the producers of the video to check for copyright implications:

  • Install Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com)
  • Install extension "Video DownloadHelper"
  • Re-start FF
  • This should put a small graphic in the bottom left of the FF window
  • Open up the You Tube window and then click on the graphic
  • This should save the file as a .flv (Flash Video File).
  • Download a .flv player (I use Wimpy)
  • Play the FLV file via the FLV player
  • You can search on Google for converters to change the .flv video in .qt or .wmv but this will depend on your level of IT expertise.
