Have you ever wondered how to copy the YouTube video clips and Movies onto you IPod?

The following instructions were written for the material that could be lawfully downloaded. Please be aware that it is illegal to download any Copyright protected material from the web.

Firefox Video DownloadHelper
The easy way to download and convert Web videos from hundreds of YouTube-like sites including DavidMovies (latest full feature films). This works also for audio and picture galleries.

Use Firefox browser and install the Video DownloadHelper.

Full instructions from YouTube 'http://www.youtube.com/'. In some versions of firefox download doesn't start unless you close the browser window (not the download window!).

To play on your iPod you need to convert these videos from .flv file format to .mp4 using DVD Video Freeware called 'Video to iPod and PSP Converter'.

You can also download movies from DavidMovies.com by using your firefox, but click 'Cancel' if it asks you to download anything (Zango or Vuze) as they contain Spyware/Malware.

Video Conversion with DownloadHelper
You can install this conversion tool on Windows to help you convert any video file format that you have on your desktop to another. The most used conversion need on the web is FLV to MPEG. This Freeware also converts .ts file format that is not in its drop down menu. It is the best conversion tool that I have come across and it is totally free.

Using video conversion with DownloadHelper requires that you turn on the feature from the extension's preferences dialog. The simplest way to open the preferences is to right click on the DownloadHelper icon and select the first entry 'Preferences'. If the icon is not installed in the toolbar, the preferences can also be opened from the Tools / DownloadHelper / Preferences menu, or Tools / Add-ons menu, DownloadHelper selection, Preferences button. From the preferences window, the tab Conversion must be selected.

You can remove the Water mark on the images by editing the wm.png and make it all transparent as instructed 'Removing Watermark from Downloadhelper' or search google for 'DownloadHelper__Firefox_Extension__Watermark_Remover.rar' using 'Rapidshare' to download the fix.
