I haven't got broadband at home and want to make copys of the French AF videos in chad etc. How do I go about copying these to a disc or memory stick. These are for my own use only.

If you're using FireFox then the 'add on' 'Download helper' will enable you to download any video to disc.

I have been using You Tube Downloader. Works great! With Videora you can also import it to your ipod.

Another, quicker trick is to play said vijeo, immediately look in your temp files folder, and find the latest, big flv file, traditionally called video[1].flv.
Drag it to desktop, rename (not the flv bit) and voila you have a Flash Video copy of it...which with something like 'Super' you can convert into anything.

...and how does one work the YouTube inserter on PPRuNe?

I copy the url thingy, click the YouTube icon at top right of the reply box, paste the url thingy and.......nothing! Just a big white box. What am I doing wrong???

See the "Reinventing the wheel" thread on Military Aircrew for a good example of my incompetence.

Yours confused
