i hope this post doesn't appear twice. google screwed me over when I
clicked post.


here is a short clip (chosen as an example because it's short)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPTP3rXKHvc

i'd like to be able to download it and split it into parts. I'd like
to open it in windows movie maker

i've managed to download it with www.keepvid.com, apparently
that's .flv format

I'm looking for freeware that'd convert it to mpg or wmv. Or, some
format that windows movie maker can deal with.

I tried
http://www.media-convert.com/
but
a)it didn't get the video , only the audio (though maybe i didn't set
it well)
b)it has a 150MB limit

I want this to work for larger files. e.g. 700MB

is there any freeware that'll do this?

MediaCoder from Sourceforge, or Super from Erightsoft.
In that order.

hello
i would recommend Youtube Grabber. thats the software whick lets you
download the videos from youtube and its relatively faster but dont
have options like downloading just mp3 etc. you just would be able to
download the video(dont remember whcih format exactly). Hope it
helps...
have fun!!!

no luck with media coder. some error . Tried an earlier version. Got
some other error.

i have used "Super" before. But i don't have the EXE on this machine.
It's a nasty website. I can't find the link to install it.
If anybody is familiar with the site enough to know where the
installation file is, could they post a link to it.

thanks!

Same error? You mentioned no 'error' earlier.

>Tried an earlier version. Got
>some other error.

Specifics are essential. What new error?

>i have used "Super" before. But i don't have the EXE on this machine.

First I would be asking what is going wrong at the moment. I don't
know what formats movie maker can deal with. Converting to wmv is
rarely a good idea and hmmmm has suggested an option if you choose to
do so.
You say:
"i'd like to be able to download it and split it into parts. I'd like
to open it in windows movie maker"

You're talking about a file of about 700MB - what are you wanting to
do with it precisely? You are going to need to provide more info to
get a decent informed answer to your req.
