Youtube Downloader HD saves videos to your computer for playing outside a browser or offline viewing. The videos can be downloaded in Flash video format (FLV) or, where available, MP4 formats (playable by iPhone, iPod etc.). The program can also convert files to Xvid format, compatible with most video players.
Functionality is limited to YouTube. Although there is no batch download, multiple instances can be opened concurrently in order to simultaneously download multiple videos.

I suggest FSS Video Downloader as a lighter and more "universal" alternative

@aazard: in my brief testing, "FSS Video Downloader" depends on both 'MSVCR100.dll' and 'youtube-dl.exe', which significantly increase its size footprint; but even after manually downloading those dependencies to place them in program folder, FVD fails to download anything from YouTube in Windows 10, with a "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)" error...

After further testing, I was able to determine the error I reported was caused by "FSS Video Downloader" improper bitness detection -- it downloaded 'youtube-dl.exe' alright into '%LOCALAPPDATA%\FSSComponents' but, as this is a 32-bit program running on a 64-bit OS, it was unable to run. |

I've always used the batch program and not the standard version, although it works well too. The batch is superior for downloading multiple videos. I use an older free version of the batch program that's limited to a max of 5 simultaneous downloads. From what I understand, the new batch version doesn't work at all without purchasing a license.

Is anybody else getting what looks like Arabic language when launching the installer? I don't want to click on any buttons because I have no idea what they mean. |

@webfork: Thanks a lot, however, it still does not work for me. Either it is a problem with my machine or Instagram has changed something after the last update of InstagramSaver. I would be happy to hear if it does work for others. |
