Question Saving youtube videos
I've tried a few methods but they all haven't worked.

There is a few videos I'd like to take from youtube, then transfer them to something my PS3 can play so I can show them to my mom when I go home tonight for break. I believe the PS3 doesn't support avi as of the moment (duke correct me if I'm wrong).

So yea... how to get the videos, then the simpliest way to transfer to a better format than the gay .flv

Thanks in advance.

this might help a bit:

How to convert .flv (flash video) to .avi or .mpg - VideoHelp.com

he's also saying that the video (on some flash player browsers) place the loaded video into your IE temp files, so look there to see if it's available. I've never saved a YouTube file, so I'm not much help, but this guy seems to have found a way to encode your .flv into a playable MPEG

I am leaving my laptop at the dorm so that is the whole point of this.

I tried like 4 different websites that claim to save and/or convert these files and they were kaputt, again why I asked here.

I already have that videdownloader thing for firefox but it gives me an error for some reasons and yes it is updated.

I finally got it to work with keepvid and some lame converting program. Hey noobs4brkfast how are you liking 1.40 bf2142 these days? I randomly quit after one too many cotd's few months back.

sooo...this thread is over, then?

you should definitely take your 2142 woes into that forum, and I moved this into the community forum, 'cuz yer gonna get pwned leaving a somewhat resolved, unwatched thread go unchecked in Off Topic.

and as you say: so yea...you want me to close it or what?
