If there is a video on You tube can I download it to my own hardrive. A client has a video of me on a secured You tube account and they will not let me have a copy but I could really do with it for various reasons. I mean it is me and I only want it for my own use and I have a link for it so can I download it from the site?

If you use firefox you can install an extension called "download helper" with that you can save a youtube video to a file locally. It's usually saved in a .flv format so you will either need to convert it or to get a utility to play files in that format (I use SM player but I'm sure there are others)

I think VLC (www.videolan.org) supports YouTube download.

too late as they have now taken the video down. They added it for me to check. Really annoyed as they are re-selling the video of me lecturing and I just want a 1 minute clip to add to my show reel they promised I could have it and now they are being difficult about me using it. This from a development company who sell themselves as supporting women to move ahead hmmmm.

maybe not, if you have played it through. what browser were you using..? slim chance its in IE temp, but if say Chrome, it might still be there.. I use a programme called Chromecacheview . and it identifies all the files by type. so there is a slim chance the vid is on your HD.

well that was kind of agreed and I also asked in advance for a copy and the response was they didnt see why not. But now they are being difficult. To be honest its a long story and I will not be doing work for them again.
