When I try to download youtube, Vdownloader says not a valid URL, or not allowed to download.

This stinks! Can anyone advise what is wrong???

Thanks,

YouTube may be blocking your version of VDownloader. Check at the creator's website for an updated version. Otherwise, I'd say you have a distorted configuration, based on your photo in the previous post.

Kenny, It is likely what Wiz says: youtube is blocking it.

Go here:
http://www.videodownloader.fdrlab.com/download.html

and download Easy Video Downloader. This is a different program than VDownloader.
Easy Video Downloader stays ahead of youtube with frequent updates.

For further reading, go to the thread 'Downloading Youtube videos and burning to DVD'

Hi Kenny,
I don't know about the one you sent a picture of, because that's all it was, a picture and not a video.

Two things about Easy Video Downloader:
When you want your computer to play the videos make sure Easy V is set to .avi {High Quality} in the "Save As:" line

Now, it's a different story if you want to burn the video a to a DVD to play in your Tv-DVD player.
In that case, you need to download the videos in the original format (.flv), Then you download the DVD Flick program. It will convert the videos and burn them to a DVD disk.

You can find the whole explanation on the other thread: Downloading videos and burning to DVD.
Hope this helps.
Bent

Kenny, in addition I should tell you this in order to keep things running smoothly:
Make sure you have the latest version of Easy Video.
Check in bottom left corner of the program. It should say Version 1.5
Then you go to the Easy Video web site and check which version is available.
So far, 1.5 is good.

Bent,

Have you found a way to name the video before Easy Downloader starts to download?

I sometimes have a hard time finding it when it gets to my folder with a name it decides.

Jim, I have found that Easy usually names correctly. However, you can do it manually by going into the folder where you store the vids and do a 'rename' as soon as it's downloaded.

Bent,

Thanks.

That's what I have been doing. I was hoping I could do it like I did with VDownloader.

Well, Kenny, all I can say is if you follow the instructions it should work.
- It works only for youtube videos.(as far as I know)
- If you wish to only view vids on your PC, leave it on .avi
-If you intend to convert for TV viewing, change the setting to original format(flv) and convert with the DVD Flick program

That's about it...

Thanks anyway for trying. I saw a thread a couple days ago where Andy Sandoval said he had to download something for his to work, but I haven't heard from him.
Oh well, I should be reading God's word anyhow.

kenny Very Happy
