Vixy.net has been mentioned before on the Tech Corner. I actually made a little tutorial for this one, so ill re-post it here anyway. Taken from: [url=http://theftalk.com/t780-%5BTUTORIAL%5D-DOWNLOAD-SAVE-YouTube-Videos-%28Updated%3A-ways%29.html][TUTORIAL] [b]How to DOWNLOAD & SAVE YouTube Videos (Updated: 5 ways)[/b][/url] [start of quote] Here's one of the easiest ways to download YouTube Videos. This tutorial will teach you how to use the online video conversion service of a site called Vixy.net (http://vixy.net). [color=red][b]What you need:[/b][/color] -> No external sofwares to download. All you need is your internet browser. [color=red][b]What to do:[/b][/color] 1. Go to [url=http://youtube.com]YouTube.com[/url] and serach for the video you wish to download. 2. Get the video's url: [img]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r132/riev0ne/yttut/yturl.jpg[/img] 3. Now go to [url=http://vixy.net]Vixy.net[/url]. Paste the YouTube vid's url to the textarea: [img]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r132/riev0ne/yttut/pasteurl.jpg[/img] 4. Below the textarea is a dropdown menu that looks like this: [img]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r132/riev0ne/yttut/ddown.jpg[/img] Select the [b]avi for Windows[/b] if you want the converted video to be playable in your PC, since a .avi video file is playable in almost all Media Players. You can also select the other options to your liking. You can also choose to download the audio part only to get an instant mp3 from the vid. 5. After selecting your options, just press the [b]Start[/b] button to begin the video grabbing/conversion process. If ever you receive an error message after pressing the Start button, just ignore it and press Cancel, then press the Start button again. Repeat that process until you get something that looks like this: [img]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r132/riev0ne/yttut/converting.jpg[/img] 6. Wait for the process to finish (might take a couple of minutes), until you have this: [img]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r132/riev0ne/yttut/fin.jpg[/img] Just click on the download link, and viola! You have just begun downloading your favorite YouTube video. [color=red][b]Pro's:[/b][/color] -> it takes a lesser time to do the process of grabbing and converting the videos, since its done simultaneously. -> average video file size for a 3 minute video is about 5-9 megabytes. -> the quality of the downloaded video is left intact (sometimes its even better). [color=red][b]Con's:[/b][/color] -> the site is still on beta stage, so some bugs and annoying error messages might get in your way at times. -> the size of the downloaded video is just about the size of the vid from YouTube, so its quite small. but you can always get a video converter and re-convert it into a larger one. Happy Downloading! [end of quote]
