I have downloaded some videos from google videos and they are playing great on the 800. But i cant download videos from youtuube as there is no option to download unlike google videos.......is it doable ?????

Yes... There is a python script out there that will do it. Just grab python and the script and it works.

I think I had to edit it, because the python that is downloaded didn't have a particular module installed, and I didn't want to go find it, but it was pretty easy.

What modifications did you makee... Can u explainin an easier languageas iam not that good in coputers....or could u give me the link???

Thank you very much.....but if you could tell me how to download the videos directly from on to the n800 using the python script.... it would be more helpful.... sorry for my ignorance....

Just comment out the very first line of code so that it looks like this:

#import getpass

For running the actual script you need to have xterm installed. Place the youtube-dl on your inner sd-card. Open the terminal and run these commands:

cd /media/mmc2
chmod +x youtube-dl (you only need to run this once)
./youtube-dl "URL_OF_VIDEO"

or if the video needs a login:

./youtube-dl -u your_youtube_username -p your_youtube_password "URL_OF_VIDEO"

Start Mplayer and watch the video.

i tried
cd/media/mmc2 on x-term but it says not found.... any ideas.... i know this sounds dumb for all the pros ... but please help me.. thanks

Another way is to use one of the YouTube download sites.
I use http://www.dlthis.com/ .
Just copy&paste the url and add ".flv" to the filename.
Good luck.
