So now that we have YouTube, Google Video, and the like, wouldn’t it be nice to be able to download video onto your desktop, convert it to other formats, upload to portable devices like PDA, iPod or even your cell phone? Well if you have GetTubeVideo 2.0, you can.
Feb. 21, 2008 – Bitcrowd.com today announces GetTubeVideo 2.0, a download manager for Windows OS, letting users download video from YouTube, or other video-sharing websites, convert it to a wealth of popular formats, including MP4 and 3GP, extract audio and play video. Now you can enjoy social video offline on your computer, or take it with you on a handheld, or cell phone whenever you go. Now you are truly one with your video and music.
Social video websites are one of the most popular of the Web 2.0 trends, and YouTube is apparently the largest archive of the kind. YouTube is used by actors, singers, politicians, promoters, and, of course, ordinary people to share professional or amateur movies, TV shows, cartoons, documentary or fiction, long and short, funny and shocking. But one problem with YouTube and most any other website is that you have to load and see all the videos in the browser online. And it could be a pain for the users with slow Internet, when you want to show video to someone else, it is a pain when you pay the bills for the consumed bandwidth. Fortunately, there is GetTubeVideo from Bitcrowd.com and it can save a day for you.
In terms of functionalities, GetTubeVideo is truly Jack of all trades. In just a single mouse click, it downloads video from YouTube, XTube, Google Video, or any other similar website – there are no restrictions. In case the program cannot find the video, you can select the needed file on your own from the ‘Page Items’ panel, showing all the files that can be downloaded from the page. Once the video is downloaded, you can convert it to other formats, including 3GP and MP4, which are good for cell phones and iPod, respectively.
Another best thing in GetTubeVideo is the ability to extract audio from video and save it as MP3, WAV, WMA. Needless to say that these formats are especially good for mobile devices, so you can upload your favorite song or music to a cell phone and listen to it on the move.
Included into the distribution package is a FLV Player, letting you watch YouTube FLV files. Downloading video from YouTube is a breeze. Start GetTubeVideo, paste the URL of a video file, then click “Get Tube Video” and you are done!
