Hi Jerry, how do you save YouTube videos onto your iPod?

use something like freemake video downloader to download them, and freemake video converter to convert to mp4 where necessary.  both are free.

I use Firefox with Download Helper installed, it's free. Really easy to use )

Cheers,
Ken

Thanks guys. But once downloaded and mp4'd, how do you get them onto the iPod? Just through iTunes I guess?

natterjak,

i use 3 firefox addon:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flash-video-downloader/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/good-old-youtube-downloader/?src=api
https://www.getfirebug.com/

sometimes need http://www.any-video-converter.com/ to convert mp4 to ipod format.

i use itunes on desk top to transfer files to ipod app called "file viewer"

sounds a lot of hassle but needs must and it works a treat.

ps sorry for diverting main post

Thanks Jerry. I was experimenting last night and found a free app which will download mp4 from YouTube, then an iPad app which allows you to upload off laptop onto the iPad and play the videos offline. Very similar to what you've described, but a different one.

I'm gonna use it to get H4C's base gravy vid on the iPad so it plays offline, then take it in to show to the head chef in my local BIR and see if I can get his opinion on what the magic paste contains and how it might be cooked. I'm not at all convinced by talk of secret ingredients. It'll just be onions, G&g paste, spices and toms cooked in the right way. Will be interesting to see what a super experienced BIR chef who really "knows his onions" has to say about it
