So on my other computer which is currently in the shop I was able to go to youtube and download any video via realplayer. I downloaded realplayer on the computer I am using currently but that option is not available and I forget how to make it active.
Can anyone give me some tips on how to make the ability to download youtube vids active? There are a lot of new Carrie interviews and I want them in my video collection.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I have a separate but connected program (I think you access it on the Realplayer menu?) called RealPlayer Downloader. My computer is also setup to launch the program anytime it "detects" me playing a video, which sometimes is good.
I also use, for the same purpose, KeepVid: Download and save any video from Youtube, Dailymotion, Metacafe, iFilm and more!
I don't have the realplayer downloader now. Hmmm
One of these solutions should fix it:
1. Update your internet browser
2. Update Realplayer (the latest version)
Check to see if your computer will allow to automatically update it, too. If it's installed correctly, the download button should show up.
I went to real.com and did a download. I still don't get the messages on the video. I am using the latest IE too. Is there a separate download program?
www.keepvid.com is the best. Depending the video uploaded, you can also dowload in 1080p hd. Always pick the .mp4 video. In Firefox you can install free addons like flash video in addition to mp4 from various sites.
I had to disable Real Player in Firefox in order to get Flash to work. Couldn't get youtube videos to work at all unless I disabled the add on.
No cost, just paste the desired youtube page into the keepvid search bar. You can also, for better results, add it to quick links bar in your browser, and then hit "Keep it" whenever you see a youtube video you want.
Here is the link to download the real downloader

I've had this happen before and all I did was go in Control Panel....Go to Default Programs...Go to Change Auto Play....Click on Audio files...and set it to download on Real Player. If you haven't solved this yet you might try this. It worked for me. I am on Windows 7, IE9
I have real player downloader and i think it's the best one to download you tube videos.
