How to Download Video Without Software

One
of my friends suggested I can download software on my laptop. The
software allows you to download the videos, and use them as you want.
However, one need to install them, so you never know what all gets
downloaded. Anyways I downloaded and it slowed my laptop down, once the
software was in. Every time I opened a video, this software also popped
up and it was just a nightmare.



Also
it is so tedious to sit there, install it, then download it through the
software. Especially, when some of them will only download the file as a
FLV file. Which means, you will have to then again use another software
to convert it into a file which your media player, phone, iPad or any
such other device will understand.

Browser Extensions

The
other option that I had come across was the plug-ins or extensions. So
what I mean is, the software works as a plug-in to your browser (IE,
Chrome or Firefox). So every time you have a video you want to download,
you click on the button on your browser. It will then help you to
download the video. The only problem with this is that most of the time,
the browser keeps crashing when you run the plug-in; worst is it will
slow down your browser and you will keep waiting for ever. This is
because when you open the browser the plug-in also starts.

What works for me?

There
are some providers who provide a solution to the above set of problems.
It does not require you to download any software at all. No need for
any extensions or plug-ins at all. They will allow you to download the
videos in any multiple formats of your own choice. You can even choose,
if you want to download specific to the gadget you’re going to play it
in. For e.g. you can download it for personal computers, MP3 players,
mobile phones or even your iPod!

It’s very simple to use and
something you don’t need any instructions typically. However, in case
you are wondering exactly how simple it is here we go! So first get open
the video you want to download in YouTube in one window. In the other
window open any similar software to the one I mentioned above. Copy the
URL from the YouTube window and enter it into the converter bar in your
video converter. To download videos, click ‘Run’ when prompted and then
just follow the instructions on the screen.
