This is a universal, cross-browser solution that will work with whatever your using to view the interwebs.

Right click on the javascript links below and save them to your bookmarks.

Don’t click on the links above because it won’t do anything.

After you save the links as bookmarks, whenever your watching a video on YouTube or Google Video, simply click on the correct bookmark and the flash video should begin downloading. The videos you d/l from YouTube will be named “get_video” so just rename it and add the .flv file extension and you should be able to play it back on your PC.

The VLC Media Player should be able to play .flv files back. You can find the link in our Multimedia Tools area.
