Do you want to make a video for YouTube?


or


Do you have a video that you got from YouTube?
If you have a video from YouTube, what do you want to do with it?
Or, what do you want to convert it to?

I have teh URl of a video for Youtube, adn I want to make a vdieo GIF out of it. I know how to make the gif, but I don't how how to convert.

So you want to "connect" to the YouTube video URL and then download and stream it and convert at the same time?

If so, read this example of how to do it:

This is the basic setup for getting a video file from YouTube.

so all i have to do is follow those instructions? SOUnds easy.

Yes, that's it. But you'll have to setup MediaCoder to convert to whatever you want in the end...........and that depends on where you'll be trying to play it back, the quailty and the completed file size.

Have fun experimenting. Post back if you have more questions or use the search box.
