With this site, you put in the address of the youtube video you want then it generates a .flv file which you can rename and save to your memory card on your phone (any site that uses this format will work). Then you can use TCPMP to view it directly, flv files are really small and this method works great.
I got Tool Sober as my first try and it looks good.

Why not use the Flashvideo bundle along with TCPMP to play videos?
This is integrated into PIE after you install the software and you can view and save videos with out using another website.
does this work for non youtube flv files too?

This is for rapid download and save, through a PC, ultimately so you can have them in a folder for offline viewing. Flashvideo is great for watching when you have a data connection, but there are times I don't want to fool with it, like at the gym on the treadmill.
I like to have music videos playing in my car through my stereo and this is the best method that I can think of for downloading them in batches to my phone for later viewing.
METHOD #2: Open youtube or any other site with the .flv ending and allow it to buffer fully. Then go into your temp file and resave that file what you want with a .flv ending. Save that to your storage card and boom, music videos on the go (without a data connection of course).

I ahve taken some video clips on my XDaII. When transferred to my PC the file has copied and converted to PC format. However my PC doesn't recognise the file extention "MPEG-4 file" I have tried some searches on the net but I keep being refused access to the windows recommended file extention server.
If you can advise in very plain language how I can resolve this so that I can play these clips back on my PC it'd be great
Thanks

Just found 3gptoavi2
http://www.mitsoftware.com/akiles/
You have to put the exe in a path with no spaces, and make sure the source and dest files have spaceless paths too, but it works fine for me.
It outputs a completely uncompressed avi (bmp + pcm), so it'll be huge (1MB/s) and you'll want to compress it afterwards.
Or you could install Quicktime on your PC. This will play the mpegs from your XDA II. (http://www.quicktime.com)
Cheerio

Wonderful. You create a video using a MS OS and to play it on another MS OS, you'll have to use the Apple player. :lol:
quicktime plays both 3gp and mp4

Give us a clue, what tools?
Have a look at http://www.videodl.org/ it lets you download the file and points you in the direction of tools to convert them.
Doesn't vlc play flvs?
V
youtube downloading
VLC is great for nearly everything however i couldn't get it to open .flv files.But
Total Video player does and so does FLV player 1.3.3.
If you key the question into google "How to download videos from youtube ?" you get various results.I use the mozilla firefox browser ,with the greasemonkey plugin, then when on you tube a red box appears at the top of the video page via which you can right click the save-as link.You need to change the file name that you save to something like beatles.flv, madonna.flv etc.
try these links:
http://www.hiphopmusic.com/best_of_youtube/2006/02/how_to_download_and_save_youtu.html
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2390/
Most of the conversion programs seem to be commercial only at the moment ,but most have a trial period of about 15 days.To date I have managed to download some of my old favourite vids of the 80s and transfer to imate jam!!!
Good luck guys , its all Do-able.
Youtube Without Downloading Videos
http://discussion.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?t=148801
full youtube access without downloading the flv files separatly...
ytpocket.com
works great for me. It proxies the youtube videos for you.
Just need tcmp and flash video bundle installed, then go to ytpocket.com
Streams them so you do not have to download the whole file just to view.
Is it possible to watch YouTube videos on my Vario II? Ideally, I'd like to simply browse to the YouTube website and watch them there.
There is http://tinytube.net/ but I have yet to be able to watch any of the movieclips...
I have used http://vixy.net/flv_converter to convert them and allow them to be downloaded. Not ideal.

i second tinytube, seems to work quite well...plus you are saving the files, not just streaming
So you are able to stream the files?
My WMP says it cannot open the stream...
I use the latest version of Orb and I can search YouTube and play videos.

Oh no, i should rephrase that. I'd rather download than stream, so the fact that I can only download them isn't an issue.
Orb is the key, also you should use Core Media player to play video files.
hi,
what is orb?
the tinytube thingi does not work with my hermes with htv 1.35
Check out Orb at http://www.orb.com

I thought Orb required you to use your full-size PC to find the YouTube video, download it, convert it, and store it on your PC before you can log in to your PC through your PDA to stream a converted version? If that's the case, why not just download the movie and convert it with any other video conversion util?

You are mistaken. Through the mycast.orb.com website you can search for YouTube videos and it will start streaming it over your connection(with the PC working in the background to convert on the fly).

Is anybody else having issues where they get the audio but no video for You Tube videos through Orb? I have tried with WMP and with Core Media Player.
dopod 838pro here. and yes, audio only. no video. hope we get a fix!
Make sure you have all the codecs installed on your PC:
http://support.orb.com/support/solution.jsp?sol=144
Once I did this mine was fine. I believe mine was missing the codecs for Google Video, and once I installed them it worked great!
Just go to http://www.mymobileclips.com on your pc or http://wap.mymobileclips.com on your phone.
Youtube, Google Video, Metacafe, and Dailymotion videos available for browsing and downloading.
I'm using joox to download movies and I would like to know how can I download or sync the videos to my phone? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Could anybody tell me please how to upload movies to my phone, if it's possible? I never did it with my so I just though I try it. Thanks in advance!
fastest way would put them on your storage card via a card reader and then put the card in the phone.... I have some on mine and they work fine but I do tend to stick with just .avi format
Where do you get your videos from and how do you do it? Thanks!
I've been playing movies on my Titan with TCPMP (the core pocket media player) and everything is playing fine, plays Divx and XVid and everything.
just take your movie file and reencode it in 320x240 with wathever software you want. Personnaly, I always use PocketDivXEncoder, set it to PDA, crank the audio to 6 and an episode of 22 minutes takes around 55Mb
Man...it's frustrating when you're a novice to some things. Could you explain a little further how to download the movies to my computer and then to my phone? Now, I download the movies to a my realplayer library and I'm stuck at that point.
well, I don't know how the Realplayer thingy works, I usualy just download TV Rips (in Divx or Xvid) then reencode them. I guess google is your friend for the rest!
Ok. Thanks for what you told me anyway.

When you install Realplayer, it gives you the option to record video and audio streams from flash players, though it saves them in real format. I personally prefer SUPER (thats the name of the program), which downloads and reencodes the videos on the fly. It even has presets for several screen formats. Also, it's freeware, which helps.
Cheers.
Hy I need to know if there is any tool o soft to make posible offline youtube videos .
Thx for info
i use always Opera-Mobile; open in a second tab keepvid.com and download there the .flv or .mp4 file of the vid
Works great for me and no need to install any other software. Maybe Coreplayer or something similar to play the .flv or .mp4 files.
+1 for keepvid. Allows you to get it in any format and even just the audio. You can trim the vid as well.
