Alexander. Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 Have you ever downloaded a Gaming Video on YouTube, if so what was the main reason for doing so? Why don't just stream it online? There is a service known as YouTube to MP4 that I use. Occasionally, I will download a video so I watch them offline a later date for enterment purposes.
skyfire Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 I have mostly downloaded the instructional videos. And for that I have used the clipgrab software on Windows. It works simply just have to copy the URL and post into the software. And it can pretty much make it easier for you to export into MPEG4 and MP4 or WMV. So those are some options for audio and video you have. I have seen that video grabber also works for twitch too but these days twitch often makes it harder to download the videos as most are live stream.
Alyxx Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 No, not really. I'd usually only download videos if I needed to use them.

Clipgrab is such an essential tool to have. I also use it to download tutorials on software I regularly use such as Microsoft Powerpoint, Camtasia, Canva and Videoscribe among others. It saves me a lot of time from having to constantly search for the same video and with how Youtube have been deleting channels left, right and center, It is definitely a lifesaver.
JoyFreak Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 I don't recall downloading a gaming youtube video but I have used online services to download music or music videos off youtube. Do not see the point in gaming as you can just stream it online.

Yes camtasia, canva and clipgrab basically every gamer needs to have those tools. As those tools help cutting and properly editing the experience. I also think that Filmora from Wondershare is a good product. As they have more effects and the improvements on the content editing. I also think that we can make use of the online tools for downloading video but quality would be not that consistent.

Patrik Posted January 29, 2021 Posted January 29, 2021 I do it to watch all the playlist on my TV (that's not a smart TV unfortunately), watching videos on PC isn't really that much of fun
Withywarlock Posted January 29, 2021 Posted January 29, 2021 I used to frequently, one reason was for my reviews when I was starting out as I had no (reliable) means to record my own footage. Where I could I'd get permission from the uploader and give them credit for it. Now I mostly download them for music, provided I can't buy it elsewhere to keep legitimately. I'm going to be attending a funeral in the coming weeks and I'll be required to isolate before and after. Having some videos while we've no internet access might be prudent to keep me sane.
skyfire Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Clipgrab is a good tool on windows for those who have not checked it. as it allows you to export to different type of the video formats too. I would recommend you to try it out.
Empire Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 I only use it for downloading no copyright music from youtube if there is no download link that I can click on 🙂 But it's in Mp4 or MP3 format. So yes used it. back almost 8 years ago used to so allot of UouTube content with other people and when they upload a video I would download there video on my end to keep LOL
Syntax Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 I used to do it years ago, although now with SoundCloud/Spotify and their premium memberships - I feel like you can listen to whatever you want for stupdly cheap.

Same here - I stopped doing that a while back. I can easily access most of them on other platforms.

I have actually done that at least once that I can remember and it's one of the fights in Final Fantasy which I can't really recall the series.
