Download YouTube videos

Postby weybrew » 26 Jun 2023 23:29

I have been trying to learn how to download YouTube videos using VLC but am having no luck. I can't even get a YouTube video to play. I seem to be following the instructions, but nothing is happening. I am not a techie so I'm at a loss for what I am doing wrong and learning how to use this tool in VLC. The last tutorial I tried to follow was: https://tinyurl.com/4zx7u5r8. And I also can't figure out how to attach a document. Using Windows 10 and the Chrome browser. VLC is v3.0.18. I would be very grateful for skilled guidance.

Use the VLC nightly version 3.0.19, it works very well: https://artifacts.videolan.org/vlc-3.0/ ... 0626-0226/
