Question Asked: Can You Record YouTube?

Comment On This »

I’m not really sure what you mean with your question. I think you mean that you want to be able to capture videos from YouTube, and keep them on your computer, or iPod, or whatnot.

If that’s the case, technically the answer is no.  YouTube doesn’t allow a way to download the videos that have been uploaded to their site.

However, there are a number of sites available that have this functionality built into them, to allow you to download videos from YouTube.

The one I found that seems the most promising is KeepVid.  You simply pop in the URL for the video you want, and it does the rest.

I hope that’s what you were looking for.  If not, please let me know.

    There are two ways in which you can capture streaming video from the web to your PC.

    One are the downloaders, softwares that offer you the option to download the video you are watching on your browser directly to your hard drive. The second are the video capture applications which allow you to select the part of the screen you want to record and grab the video from there. Tha main advantage of the video capture applications is that they can record DRM protected content.

    I use a video capture app called 1AVCapture to capture streaming video and streaming audio to my PC. I like it exactly because it captures video and audio separatedely. But there are many options out there.
