Tips

• Be patient! Even a one minute video may take two to three minutes. A computer with a good connection and plenty of space should run at a good pace though.
• If you need lots of videos, you can run multiple downloads at the same time. Just be forewarned that this will slow down each conversion.
• Finding a music video and downloading it as a .mp3 will result in music file. The music may also not be the best quality because it's from a video, not a CD.
