Youtube Video Download

Youtube is slowly starting to provide access to high definition videos on the video portal. If you perform a search for it you find many websites that explain how to view the videos on Youtube in high definition. High definition Youtube video downloads on the other hand are not explained that often. One of the best ways to download the Youtube videos in high definition is with the help of the Firefox add-on Download Youtube Videos in HD and MP4 [link]. The add-on provides an easy way to download Youtube videos by adding download links directly on the Youtube video pages.

Youtube video download adds two links to one of the right panels that contain the url and embed links. The Download as MP4 and Download as 720p HD MP4 are displayed. They can be saved by right-clicking on one of the two links and selecting Save Link As from the context menu. One should note however that this is obviously only working if a HD video is available on Youtube. If there is no HD video the download will display the file as get_video or videoplayback which will not save the video at all. It is possible that one of the two Youtube video download links is working but there have been cases where none was working.

The Firefox add-on to download Youtube videos in high definition is currently experimental which means that you have to log into the Mozilla website to download and install the extension.

   I might give it a try, since I’m already using the build in YouTube downloader with IDM.

   It’s kind of good, but it doesn’t have any option to download in 720p, you have to manually set it to do this :(

Tam yra ne vienas Firefox įskiepis ir net specialios programos, tačiau naujas eksperimentinis (būtina Mozilla registracija) įskiepis gali parsiųsti ir naujus didelės raiškos klipus ir/arba išsaugoti juos MP4 formatu, tinkamu peržiūrėti VLC ir kitomis programomis.
