In the browser, the video will always have the same name, “videoplayback,” so you’ll have to rename it yourself if you want to keep track of what was downloaded. To download it open the menu and click “Save page as…” or press CTRL+S. If pasting the URL into Chrome the browser will begin playing the video. Note: This direct video link is temporary and will expire after a certain number of hours. To quickly select it, click in the box and then press Ctrl + A (select all) on your keyboard, and then press Ctrl + C (copy) to copy it.
You can copy this URL and paste it into your web browser to directly download the video. Once the YouTube video is playing, visit the Tools menu in VLC and click “Media Information” (Ctrl/CMD + I hotkey).Īt the bottom of the window is the direct URL to the video. Tip: VLC also has a convert option here however it can be unreliable and usually glitched out when I was testing it. It should start streaming as soon as you press Play. Stream the video to VLC player by pressing Ctrl + N (Cmd + N on Mac) and then paste the link to the video in the “network URL” box.
