Hi,
Ever wonder how to download videos from YouTube if you are using Linux? There are many tools that you could use. For me, I'm interested most in youtube-dl. You could download YouTube videos using terminal. Open terminal and run "youtube-dl [URL to the video]" to download your favorite videos.
To install, become root and type;
root@ubuntu:~# apt-get install youtube-dl
Usage: youtube-dl [options] video_url
Options:
-h, --help print this help text and exit
-v, --version print program version and exit
-u USERNAME, --username=USERNAME
account username
-p PASSWORD, --password=PASSWORD
account password
-o FILE, --output=FILE
output video file name
-q, --quiet activates quiet mode
-s, --simulate do not download video
-t, --title use title in file name
-l, --literal use literal title in file name
-n, --netrc use .netrc authentication data
-g, --get-url print final video URL only
-2, --title-too used with -g, print title too
