About
Every time you play a video in web browser, that video is saved in a temporary folder on your operating system. This tool allows you only to choose the destination where video file is to be saved on your local computer.
How To Download Files
To download YouTube video, paste the video link into large text box (for example 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D26DIsf7RQw) and click on 'Download' button. After a couple of seconds the download should start.
How To Open Files
Downloaded files are in '.flv' (Flash video) format. Ubuntu playes these files automatically, but if you use Windows, google for some .flv converters out there.
Why I see weird characters in file title
When you download a video file with a Japanese title for example, this title will be used when saving the file to your desktop. I've noticed that Windows cannot save file names in unicode. That is why you will see some weird characters instead of a file name in Japanese. If you know a way out of this hole, please, let me know.
