I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you :wink:

I’m on a mac, so odds are it won’t help you

I use SafariStand to copy youtube vid then convert for ipod using iSquint–both freeware

In Safari, open the youtube page, hit command-option-A, and doubleclick on the name of the video (should be the only one who’s size is changing.) That gives you an FLV file. Use iSquint (free, google it) to make it nice for the iPod/phone/touch.

Of course, that’s assuming you have a mac.

LadyD and Pike, I bow to your technological superiority. BTW, here’s another version of the song you might like if you’re sick of it (it helps if you’ve also seen the original Feist music video):

For the PC, here’s what we do.

My brother downloaded a Firefox widget for YouTube where you can just click on a little icon on the page that says “Download this video”.
Once the file is saved, we convert it using Jodix (it’s free) so it becomes an MP4.
Upload the file on your iTunes so it’s posted as a video.

I’m sure in Pike’s case, it’s the truth, but no one’s ever accused me of “technological superiority” before. little problems like this are why I cough up an extra $100 to apple every year to maintain my .mac subscription

That. Was. Priceless!! (as in there is no price, you just keep paying and paying…). you can have my mac when you pry it from my cold dead fingers, but they do know how to make you keep forking it over, don’t they?

#44

Sigh. One reason why I’m resisting the urge to buy my own Mac laptop… I’m sticking with PCs. I’m sure once I go Mac, I’ll never go back… :rolleyes:

#45

Thanks Tesser! (and thanks anyway to Lady D and Pike—but I have a PC).
I use FireFox, so using that widget will be easy enough. I’ve got another conversion program to convert for MP4, but it that doesn’t work for me, I’ll give that Jodix a try.

Glimfeather… beautiful job, you totally nailed it, gave me chills :slight_smile:

Sorry I’m late posting, I’ve been away on vacation with no internet, just beach.

Thanks Glimfeather… thanks Chuck, thanks Sean, thanks Audra :slight_smile:

I recently saw this:

and it reminded me of our old tribute video. Plus, now being a fan by proxy of Sesame Street, this is just awesome.

#48

omg! right to the bow at the end! Had to play it twice for the puddy-tat!

Thanks, Solai!

#49

Omg, that IS awesome ! Glimfeather did a great job adapting that song ! I still watch it…

#50

Stroogie you rock!

#51

Fraking awesome!!!

#52

Indeed, you DO, sir!

#53

MAn he even put me in there w/o me doing anything. Im nowtaking his little icon for me and making it my avatar

#54

If there are any TiVo users out there, you know that now you can watch YouTube vidoes via TiVo. The other day it was so cool watching Stroogie’s awesome GWC 100th Tribute video on my TV!!

#55

I have a DVR but not a TiVo. It sounds like great fun.

As I was walking around Lowes today trying to catch up on summer project completions, what came over the music intercom ?? “1 2 3 4” …I instantly began grinning like a fool. (Well, more of one than usual.) I felt like part of a secret club that had just gotten a coded message. :smiley: Thanks Glim/Stroogie for that! It made my afternoon.

#57

Same with Audra’s Here in CIC song. Every time i hear the real song I start humming Audra’s (far superior) version

#58

Only vaguely on topic, but “1to3for (ft. ytcracker)” is worth checking out. You can find it here (in the second album down, currently)
