How to view video downloaded from YouTube

I came across a mac hint on the web telling you how to download YouTube videos.
+*"Simply open the YouTube video you want,*+
+*then apple key + alt + A. Then double click on the video, it will be the only one there that is a MB in size. It will download automatically to your desktop"*+
The video downloads but I can't play it with quicktime.
What can I do?

Check out TubeSock.

  • Cant play video downloaded from youtube

    I have downloaded video from youtube in uc browser but when I try to open that video it shows a message that " this video cant be played in this phone".Also the format of video was mp4.From the day I have purchase this Lumia 520 no video I have seen in this device.Also in somecases it shows the message "you need to install a new app fir this task " but when I open the store no app found.When I open you tube in uc browser it shows only mp4 format to download that video.Earlier I have used android phones in that no problem like this I have ever found ,that phone support ever video I instal.Please give me some solution.

    Which Android did you use before?
    YouTube uses a lot of different codecs in their MP4 container. Mobile phones do not support all video codecs, some do support less, some operating system support more. On a personal computer with a tool like MediaInfo, you are able to inpect the content of the MP4 container and which video codec is inside of it actually.

  • E71 - Cannot view Video streams from YouTube

    Hey ther,
    i recently picked up the E71, great phone, must say.
    However, i have a concern...
    I tried browsing YouTube & MetaCafe using my WiFi & GPRS connection to view videos of youtube and metacafe.
    The problem however is, once I click a Video thumbnail on the browser, it loads the Real Player as default. However, once the video is buffered 100%, it only plays out the Audio (sound). The Video simply doesn't show up. the RM player simply displays the loading screen.
    Even if I save this video post its audio only playback and view try viewing it offline, the same result, only Audio play.
    Can someone please help??
    Thanks n rgds,
    Raj S

  • How to view video files from a t4i ? Would like to use TV

    I may be interested in spending a lot of $ to buy a t4i but would like to play movies / video on TV.  One choice is Xbox via a thumb drive but Xbox will only recognize .mp4 files and this camera uses .mov.  Second method is via USB input to my new LG TV which will not recognize video form my s100 which I think are also .mov files - suggestion?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you have a HDMI input on your LG tv. Simply hook up a HDMI cable from your T4i to the HDMI input on your tv.

  • How do I move my downloaded video clips (from youtube etc) into my photo album so I can see them in the aurasma app?

    I want to use videos downloaded from youtube in the AR app Aurasma, but, I don't know how to move the video clips into my photo album to do this.

    1 - select the photo(s) in iPhoto and export (file menu ==> export) to a desktop folder - mount the USB drive and drag that folder to it.  I usually use the export custom size option to limit teh photo to the maximum pixel dimension of the photo frame letting me have more photos on the USB drive
    2 - to restore the iPhoto icon in the dock launch iPhoto from the Applications folder and right click on the icon in the Dock sleecting keep in Dock

  • How can I download a video clip from YouTube into iMovie 9

    I found one thread dating suggesting that I download some free software MPEG Streamclip from http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html.  I did that and selected the (beta) version that is necessary for downloading from YouTube.  I installed the software including an add-on that I had to purchase from Apple, Quicktime MPEG2.dmg.  When I try to run the software I get the following error message: File open error: can't open the file.
    Help!

    Well on a Mac you can install
    Flash
    Silverlight
    Perian
    VLC
    Flip4Mac
    DivX
    and many other codecs/tools to watch anything.
    Guess the iOS isn't really all that it's cracked up to be, ignoring the wider world out there.
    Your only choice to complain to Apple about closed devices they make, but of course they know this already and using the iPad as a cheap "netbook" halo effect device so you get to upgrade to a Mac, just like they do with iPhones and iPods.
    In the meanwhile they are slowly closing the door on OS X, a little at a time so it's not noticeable.
    Pretty soon the excuse will be "sorry I can't play your video you sent me mom, I've got a Mac"

  • Videoplayback.flv file downloaded from YouTube video via Safari will not play

    Hello All,
      Here is my question to you:
      Has Safari been altered in such a manner as to NOT allow you to download videos direct from YouTube to your Mac without some intermediary interface?
      Here are the steps I would use to download the source .flv video file from a video on YouTube to save it on my MacBook Pro:
    1. Open Safari.
    2. Go to http://www.youtube.com.
    3. Enter name of video to view/download in the search bar and hit 'enter'.
    4. Start video.
    5. While video is playing:
         A) Click on 'Window' in Safari's menu bar at the top of the screen.
         B) Select 'Activity'.
    6. A window will open showing data status of the video.
    7. Locate the largest loading file size and wait until it is finished loading.
    8. Double-click on that file size.
    9. A small 'Downloads' window will appear showing file download status.
    10. Navigate to your 'Downloads' folder and drag the file named 'videoplayback.flv to the desktop.
    11.  Double-click the aforementioned file to start the video in a suitable .flv player (I was using SWF & FLV Player originally).
    This process no longer works.  All I get is a black screen when I double-click the downloaded .flv file.
    Notes:
      The file size in Step 7 above would vary accordingly to the length of the video, but now every video I try to save as a .flv is approximately 1.7MB no matter how long the video is.  Something isn't right here.
      I had originally downloaded and used SWF & FLV Player to view my video when the above process used to work, but now it has upgraded itself to Elmedia Player and wants me to upgrade to the PRO edition to be able to download videos from YouTube.
    Any insight to this will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance for reading and responding to my question!
    Sincerely,
    - Austin C.

    Thank you for your timely response and suggestion, Mr. Davis!
      I did exactly as you said, made sure there was NO trace of the Elmedia player anywhere on my machine after the uninstallation procedure, but unfortunately this did not work.
      When I dropped the videoplayback.flv file into the VLC player, I get this error message:
      There is something deeper going on within Safari, I believe.  The fact that different length videos on YouTube all yield the same 1.7MB file size when I try to download them is puzzling.
    Thoughts?

  • HT2506 After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer

    After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer anymore. Any ideas would be helpful thanks

    Merely clicking the Preview icon in the Dock doesn't cause it to open anything, unless you had one or more windows open the last time it quit.
    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
    1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    3. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    4. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

  • Storing and playing video in iphone downloaded from Youtube

    Thanks,

    You can't. It violates DRM.

    hi, tell me any good app to download video song from youtube..thanks

    [Get Flash Videos] ([get_flash_videos]) from the AUR.  It is a command-line program that can download the highest-quality-possible video streams from YouTube as well as many other video streaming websites, and also allows you to log in right there on the console if a video was content-flagged on particular a video-streaming service.  You can also download the subtitles/closed-captions along with video.

  • How do you find out how many views and downloads a podcast has had?

    How do you find out how many views and downloads a podcast has had?

    Your question may be better placed in the "Producing Podcasts" forum instead of here in iTunes for Windows.
    I assume though (I don't produce Podcasts), that the host server (where the Podcast is downloaded from) has the option of providing that information to the Podcast's producers.
    Two points though;
    That information is likely to only be available to the producers of that Podcast, not to listeners (or competitors)
    It's almost certainly an add-on service, that needs to be paid for, in addition to the hosting service.
    If it's your Podcast, check with the host service that you use.
