download a youtube video ?

[soma]

Does anyone here know if it is possible to download vids from youtube ?
To my local hard drive that is.

Soma,

Yes, with Firefox and either of these add-on's:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloadhelper/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flashgot/

I use both. You can download at different qualities and convert to different file formats (mp4 etc)

Thanks Matthew - you can delete this thread if you wish since it serves no purpose now.

Well .. it informs others.

Generally we delete nothing here ... not that we cling to everything ... we just let it fade into the history of the database ... however .. the site is getting slow and probably needs some tidying up but this has never been asked ... unlike many other questions

Then I take the opportunity to recommend The Faith Mind Sutra as a video worth downloading.
Have recently posted it in book recommendations but it deserves an echo.
The most beautiful text ever ?
