Downloaded and installed perfectly but whenever I put a URL into the space provided and click ‘download’ it gives me an error: “Length cannot be less than zero”. EVERY. TIME.

Happens with every youtube video I try to download so its not just one vid its a problem with. Have tried searching for solutions via Google and got no help whatsoever.

Other YouTube download/converters (YouTube Get / YouTube Get Converter etc)I’ve downloaded from here haven’t worked all that well either. On top of that if you download a new video downloading software from here it pretty much overwrites (or kills off the useability) of any previously downloaded programs.

Yep this one works great on Vista64. Once you click on Download, you can choose the Output Folder destination :-) You can also go to Advanced and choose many options (Convert to type, extension, Screen Size, Codecs etc. etc.).

Very nice!

This program downloaded and installed OK on XP SP3. Appeared to register automatically to Giveaway of the Day.

However, it would not download any video from YouTube no matter what or how I tried. Showed message saying “waiting for server” (or something like that). Progress bar empty. Then it said “failed.”

I uninstalled it.

I’m in the same dilemma as Sue (#50 comment). The scant Help window says “Our website (http://www.mediavigor.com/) contains a wealth of information about the YouTube Downloader product,” and “The YouTube Downloader manual can be obtained in several formats (chm, pdf, online).” However, they don’t say where on the site. I can’t even find any reference to it there, including with a Google site search. I’d sure like to have information about how to choose the different settings. I was able to download something but the video was awful. I’m sure there’s a way to make it better, but I don’t have knowledge about how to fiddle with the settings. That manual they promised sure would come in handy. Anyone know where to find it? Thx.

Just use this bookmarklet on any browser while playing the youtube video and you can download the video as mp4 file.

Instructions for all browser is the same as follows:
1. Create a bookmark in your browser, name it as you like, in the URL copy/paste the below text.

javascript:if(document.location.href.match(/http:\/\/[a-zA-Z\.]*youtube\.com\/watch/)){document.location.href=’http://www.youtube.com/get_video?fmt=’+(isHDAvailable?’22′:’18′)+’&video_id=’+swfArgs['video_id']+’&t=’+swfArgs['t']}

2. Save the bookmark.
3. Go to the video of your choice on youtube.com.
4. While playing the video, click on this bookmark(let) and the video will be downloaded to your PC as mp4 files.

As simple as that!

To number #41, use a program to Download from Utube, then use a program to convert the file to what you want, then burn it to a cd or dvd with burning software…this software is suppose to download and convert, i have not tried it. I use Sothink from a giveaway before.n I don’t know about copyright issues..I suppose if you were to make cds from utube material then try selling it, you may come into problems.

Downloaded fine. Downloads and converts youtube videos, but when I open in Windows Media Player, only sound plays but not video. Any suggestions?

It’s cheap that the software developers used the Vista background – real lame in my humble opinion.

Software works – but unfortunately it’s just not worth it with all the free down loaders out there.

I recommend the freeware “FreeRapid Downloader”

It supports Youtube, RapidShare, MegaUpload and around 80 other sites. Basically you input as many links as you can, and FreeRapid will take care of it. So if I have 20 Youtube links I just put ‘em in and it’s all good. Unfortunately there’s no “convert” setting like this one, but it’s free.

Also the program supports other sites like Rapidshare. Rapidshare makes you wait 30-60 seconds before a download and also only lets you download 100MB before you need to wait 14 minutes. Basically this program waits the 30 seconds before the download then waits the 14 minutes to get the second file. It’s real convenient and doesn’t cost a cent.

That’s my “0″ cents worth.
