| Downloading videos from YouTube used to be quick and easy on Ubuntu as it required only copying and pasting. But it is no longer going to be so on the newer versions i.e Firefox or Chrome. Now high quality videos can be downloaded on Ubuntu using a special command line tool known as Youtube-dI. The new tool is a command line tool, which could be a deterrent for some users. Apart from this, it is a really powerful tool as it makes it much simpler to download videos from YouTube than any other application with a GUI at present. This tool can also be downloaded from default Ubuntu repositories. It is really simple to install it. Click a button, which redirects you to the specific Software Center page. You can also download the tool by copying and pasting the command “ sudo apt-get install youtube-dI” in your terminal. Using the Youtube-dl in Ubuntu 12.04, Ubuntu 12.10 and Ubuntu 13.04 As per techdrivein.com, this tool is really simple and easy to configure. You can download a video from YouTube by simply typing youtube-dl and then clicking the link that points to the actual video. The tool will then download the highest quality version of that video. For the lowest quality version of that video, you need to type “youtube-dI –f worst”. Apart from this, you can also state the format quality of the video as well as extract the audio from the file that has been downloaded. For further details you need to check out the youtube-dI page. The tool also supports other sites such as Comedy Central, Dailymotion, Facebook, Metacafe, MyVideo, Photobucket, Vimeo, Yahoo!, blip.tv, Soundcloud, InfoQ, Mixcloud, OpenClassRoom among others. |  |
