After I tried some youtube converter on Internet, I found many of them not good to use.
Here I found Wondershare YouTube Downloader could free download YouTube videos and convert FLV files.

Any good freeware?

If you want to search and batch download from Youtube.com, try this BrownRecluse script: http://softbytelabs.com/
(check the WebFiles tab under “youtube_SDL_dd_mm_yyp.zip”)

The script is free and very powerful. Allows resuming and updating downloads. Even creates thumbnail pages of your downloaded clips.
Drop me a line if you like it.

Note - You’ll need to install BrownRecluse program, which is shareware but can be used freely for one month but is worth every penny anyway. Then open the script in BrownRecluse, click the Run button. You need a (free) registration account on Youtube.

nice script, although if you want to download from other sites also you can use a site like http://www.clipnabber.com

sites like those are pretty easy to use for downloading videos from youtube and a bunch of other sites too

"If you click the link to download and the extension is not flv, you'll have to set it manually"

HOW? All the videos I am trying to download have a PHP string instead of the flv link, so how am I suppose to seti it manually?

it's a good script but it's not perfect...
to make it better mod the line that starts "fl = "
replace with
fl = document.location.toString().replace(/^.*[?&]v=([^&]+).*/,"http://www.youtube.com/get_video.php?video_id=$1")
then change the page title matching to
*youtube.com/*v=*

first of all, l want to thank you for writting such a kewl script... but l have a problem with it right now.

l had last tried it back in December 2005 and it works. But today just a few days into the new year 2006 and it doesnt work anymore at all?

Anyone know why? Any hints or solutions would be most appreciated.
