Help with Video Downloading

[Dizzle229]

I'm trying to download flash videos from the web, straight to my computer. Unfortunately, I have no way of doing this. I have something on my computer, Orbit, that seems to be able to do that but I'm not sure how it works. Please, can someone tell me how to get it working? Or better yet, a different, newer program that you can walk me through?

I know how to download youtube videos,

 

 

 

You'll need

 

An FLV player

 

YouTube Downloader

 

 

 

First, open YouTube Downloader, enter the url of the vid you want to download. Save it to you desktop and you're done. But if you want it on your ipod read further. Open Youtube downloader if not already open, check the circle "convert video (previously downloaded) file select " Convert to "ipod video" Choose your vid on your desktop by clicking the 3 dots near the "select your video" bar. Press OK. MAKE SURE "CUT VIDEO" IS CHECKED, no need to mess with the "0:00:00". Hit ok. Now wait. Move your .avi vid to a folder where you wont move it again, keep or delete the flv vid its ur choice. open iTunes, select import, choose your .avi vid and it should be under "movies" in iTunes.

 

 

 

Hope I helped :D

 

 

 

Oh and you will have a vid that has a title like "LERO~1" and you wont be able to delete it, it will vanish when you restart your comp

Hmm, will this work for Gamevee?

 

 

 

Also, where will I be able to find the file after I download?

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT - Also, how do I get these clips into Windows Movie Maker, because it says I don't have the required codec. Unless you can get me a link to that codec. The help you've already given is much appreciated.

http://www.zamzar.com (It's full of ads but it's free) Can download Youtube videos and convert them to MP4/AVI/MPG/3GP and some others for use with a normal media player. You could also get Realplayer, it doesn't suck anymore.
