The TGF Challenge Resource Mega-Thread

[Sascha Franck]

Hi there folks, this thread might be a good one to (re-)introduce myself (some may still remember me from that "other" place, didn't take all that great of an ending back then, to put it mildly, I'd happily recall some nasty details in the OT section...).

Whatever, as far as ripping stuff from YT goes, there's possibly nothing better than ClipGrab. No, it's not integrating into your browser, but I see that as a plus, as you can use it with all browsers. In addition, it's not using any of the 3rd party online conversion services but grabbing the files directly. Also allowing for both video and just audio grabbing (including MP3 conversion, but I'd rather go for m4a, which is sort of YT's native format, so it's just extracted from the video, not converted again). Available freely for macOS and Windows, give it a try!

ClipGrab - Free YouTube Downloader & Converter

ClipGrab is a free downloader and converter for YouTube, Vimeo, Metacafe and many other online video sites

clipgrab.org

And fwiw, for Android there's TubeMate, doing the same kinda thing (you need to allow installation from APKs outside of the Play Store):

TubeMate YouTube Downloader - Official Website

tubemate.net

And now let me have a look around here, quite some "faces" I still remember...

Isn't that bad for the batteries ?

No batteries required for those! Just a healthy cleaning, unless you’re a snubber cap like that @Orvillain.

Ah, you got the auto-model, some people pay big bucks to get in line in front of one of those at country fairs. It’s taking the place of catching pigs with greased hands.
