Eric,
    I try to finish my email this time. Assuming you have python on your system you can use the great little python script youtube-dl (There is a download link at http://bitbucket.org/rg3/youtube-dl/wiki/Home). 

On the command line go to the folder where you downloaded the script  and type

 ./youtube-dl -b "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foobar"   
The -b flag looks for the highest quality version of the video. (Note you'll have to chmod the script to run it). 

The videos are typically in flash video format (flv) so you need a decent video player for them, VLC typically works a treat.

I've successfully used the program to download many a sesame street episode starring elmo, which keeps my daughter quite content.

Xavier,

 

Try downloading them using a video converter (I use “Any Video Converter” http://www.any-video-converter.com/products/for_video_free/).  If that doesn’t work, let me know and I’ll send you one I’ve just downloaded.

Subject: [ccp4bb] HIV-Protease movies

 

Dear CCP4ers,
I would need short movies on HIV protease, isolated and in complexes with inhibitors,
for teaching purposes, i.e. they should be already made. I found some in YouTube but
could not download them. Could anybody help me further ?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Xavier
