I second that - best one out there I've found, if you don't want media in the reasonable unusable .flv format.

571469 2007-07-23 05:21:00 OK, so Zamzar is refusing to play nicely!!

I go through the process of entering the URL for the file, choosing the format and supplying the email address then at the next step it tells me I have to UPLOAD a file before converting. I thought this program converted downloads on the fly, or am I mistaken there?

Cheers

I assume you are pasting the URL into the form designed for URLs, rather than uploading files? zamzar.com

Umm.....Yes, I know the difference, and it is a separate form!

However, YouTube Grabber is working just fine and dandy for me, but I can't play the FLV files I've downloaded because the Adobe Flash update refuses to download (or install, one or the other). It is not a firewall issue either, I've opened the gate and invited it in!

I have been playing FLV files in the past but they won't play now so this attempted download seems to have wiped my original player, which was an alternative source download as well. Ah well :(, time to find a program to convert FLV to something more cooperative!

Any recommendations for converters or alternative FLV players?

Cheers

www.youtube-d.com is great. (No .flv files to piss around with):D

Download flv player (www.download.com) to play .flv files.

For a converter - super (www.erightsoft.com) is good. (and free)

It's great for all types of downloads.

To get an extension you visit the Extension site, select the one you desire and it installs itself, The extra options these add are found sitting on one of the upper taskbars of the browser window or on the right click menu, extensiona already installed can be configured via Tools>add ons.

The extension in question can be sourced from addons.mozilla.org
