Hi, can I make firefox to use clive to load/retrieve youtube video? so if I like the video, then I copy it from /tmp… because I cannot play the flv flash files I got from /tmp or downloadHelper… but I can play those downloaded from clive!

you dont need to use youtube-dl, clive not only downloads, but can download AND convert. read clive’s actual website for christ’s sake.

clive can easily be used behind a proxy, like privoxy, which is useful if you’re using tor.

if you’re using tor, check out this discussion forum:

only works if you’re running tor

I used another tool named youtube-dl (exclusive for youtube), and then apply ffmpeg to convert the flv to mpeg

sudo apt-get install youtube-dl

“Can it be used with a gui?” Are we talking about linux? I don’t know why bother to get a script when there are web sites to do that. I’m quite surprised with what appears in Delicious Linux . Cong. People discover that in the shell (black cursor blinking) they can do such things.

Thank you, just great. Can it be used with a gui?

Or you can install DowloadHelper. It’s a free Firefox extension for downloading videos and images from many sites with minimum effort.
