Convert And Download YouTube Videos
Written by Saman Sadeghi on May 18, 2007 Add comments
I just found a free website that will allow you to download YouTube or any FLV videos - the best thing about it is that the site is that it will automatically convert the videos to one of five popular formats before you download them!
Here are the formats and CoDec’s that vixy.net can convert the videos into:
- AVI for Windows (DIVX+MP3)
- MOV for Mac (MPEG4 + MP3)
- MP4 for iPod/PSP (MPEG4 + AAC)
- 3GP for Mobile (MPEG4 + AAC)
- MP3 (Audio Only)
It think it’s great that you can convert videos for your iPod, Cell Phone and PSP - now you can enjoy crazy Japanese Videos where ever you go!

This is a cool website Saman, thanks
this is great saman. there are a lot of youtube video downloaders out there but this one is unique!
by the way it seems the dofollow thing is contagious! it has gotten over me now!! =x recently installed that semiologic plugin, are you using that as well or the wordpress one?
I’m using the Semiologic plugin, I wrote about it in this post!
oh ok, i found it cool, just activate. no need to do any manual stuff aside from uploading the file ofcourse.
Wonderful! I hated how the other download-clients left them as flv, which not very many players can play. This is great! Specially for those videos that you know will get taken down quickly.
On another note, watching videos on an iPod is a bad idea. I tried watching a movie on my iPod and aside from looking nerdy and retarded at the same time, it drained battery life before getting through half of the movie
I’ll watch movies on my iPod every now and then, it’s not terrible…
But yeah, it does drain the battery pretty quickly.

Great links Pallab, thanks!!
Will have to try the Video Get soon.
Thanks for the softwares Pallab,
cool website..thanks for sharing..(”,)
Very nice find. I may just need a larger hard drive now. This 120gb is almost full.
It’s funny isn’t it - I bought a 250GB external a few years ago, thinking that it will never be full. Now I need more storage!
Yah. It’s simply astounding that hard drive are as big as they are and we have no problems filling them up. I don’t know how many spindles of cds i have because I needed more space. The new TerraByte drives are looking better everyday.
This is a sweet find! Its good to have a local copy of the best videos, I need to go get a copy of the Landlord!
Really, thanks for sharing! I’ve been wondering for a while if that was possible. I mean, I knew it was, but thought that I would have to buy something. Thanks!
Wicked site I didn’t know you could download the vids. Thanx!
This rocks. Quite simply. Thank you for the link!
