Many thanks for this Aeden. I may contact you off list if I have anything further to ask. Actually here's a question, is this video only for You-Tube or can it be used for any other video from the Internet, e.g. Uplayer which is a player for viewing programmes via computer from Ulster Television? I know you may think I am joutside the geographical area for that but I am not! *smile*, will be of course over christmas and New Year.

Hi Eleanor, In case you missed my reply to you on the 12th I am repeating it here: Yes, you can download the full studio.exe file from DvdVideoSoft which contains a utility called free youtube download. This will download video as mp4 files. These will run in windows media player. The link for DVDVideoSoft is: http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/free-dvd-video-software-download.htm Go down this page to the link for the free studio which contains a load of converters. I was able to use the free audio converter to converter m4a (apple format) to mp3, for example. Instructions: 1. Open youtube and find your choice of item using the search option. 2. While this item is running press alt +d to bring Jaws to the address line. Press ctrl +c to copy this to clipboard.3. Press windows key and open DVDVideoSoft under Programs. Right arrow into Programs in here. Right arrow into a list of converters in here. Choose Freeyoutube download in here. 4. When this program opens you will be able to tab to various buttons. Tab to Paste. Press space here and the address in the clipboard will automatically go into the file edit box.5. Tab around and you will find a edit box where you can choose where to putthe converted file. In another box you can specify the format of the converted file. 6. Now tab to the convert button. Press space here and the file willdownload and be put into your choice of folder selected in that appropriatetab box. It is not necessary to have youtube open for this as the DvdVideoSoft program will go on the internet itself and download the item. Job done. Have fun.
