or just simply...after you have watched the video in youtube...right click the internet icon...choose properties...then in "browsing history" -click- settings...then...choose " view files"---it will show your temporary internet files....FLV needs to be stored to be played... search for files that start with "get_video? .... and see if they are 1,000...5,000 kb...those are the youtube ones... copy them to another folder...RENAME them at the end type... .flv finally use any FLV player... if you wanna work on a project...you should convert them into mpg1 at least or avi.divx, mp4 files...since the size has been reduced...dont expect much more than the size of an ipodvideo file...it means if you post your new movie in youtube...they are gonna reconverted it into FLV again..."rewashed"...:))) getting a poor quality... I mean using flv videos from youtube - looks nice if you plan to post your video in your website with the original size and quality . ..not to be reconverted...Quick time is the best choice... they look nice in my ipod video...but you can't stretch them more I use Total Video Player and Sorenson Squeeze my two cents from Chengdu,China
