    I hope someone can help.

    I use VDownloader to copy video from youtube, convert it to AVI and then I continue.

    This video appeared in our newspaper (1st day at school) and my sister features. I would like to copy, but VDownloader does not seem to work. I cannot find the direct link to the video as well.

    This is the web page, with the video screen to the left:



    If I right click, this is what appear:


    Thanks for any help. As this is a "once off", I do not want to buy a programme

    Thanks for that. I am nearly there.

    I downloaded Downloadhelper as well as Converthelper. I have set the default destination as My Pictures. As soon as the video plays, the icon starts turning around (Is it capturing then?, or should I press a capture button somewhere?). Having finished, I cannot find the video in my picture. The icon stops turning around after a while



    Thanks

    Thanks!!

    Next question- I have it captured as a flv file, but what can I use to convert to AVI? I have downloaded ffdshow, but struggle to use it.
    Once I have AVI, I'm ok!!
