how do I download Youtube video to hard disk
« on: November 07, 2014, 12:18:58 am »

Hi There,
i think I'm going a bit mad or has something changed.... there used to be a option or small window to drag and drop videos from youtube to 'download' to hard drive - but I can't seem to locate it again... has this feature gone?

how do I do that?

on another note if I click on the youtube link under 'connected media' and try to play a file - it just comes up with the fuzzy screen - saying "An error has occurred" and won't play the video...

I'm using Ver 20.0.33
thanks

I find a song from the artist within MC, right click it and a box opens scroll down till you see links and hover over it, choose YouTube. then search inside the youtube window that opens up in MC....it's tricky but some times you have to hold the ctl button and left click on the video and another MC box opens...now i never ever can get vevo vids to download. hint: do not start to play the file

another tip is to find the video in your browser first so you know exactly what 1 your going after.....

I have also changed where those vids are downloaded to, so i can work on them and then move them as i store them inside the artist folder with the artists cd but not in the cd folder...that's me...once i have changed the name and moved them i don't want them hanging around in the MC downloads area (they are no longer a viable link anyway ) so to delete them from there you need to highlight it and then use your delete button on k-board. I hope this makes sense to you....Good Luck!
