Converting and playing videos
Receiving an error message when attempting to convert.
In
case you receive the following message: "The conversion of your video
file has failed, etc." please check the file name under "Select video
file" and make sure it is properly set. This file name needs to be a
full path to the file, not just the name of the file. For example, if
you downloaded a video and saved it as "myvideo.mp4" in your "C:Videos"
folder, the "Select video file" box should have "C:Videos myvideo.mp4"
in it not just "myvideo.mp4" (no directory name) or "C:Videos myvideo"
(no file extension, e.g. ".mp4"). To get the entire file path in the
"Select video file" box, click the "Browse" button and locate the video
on your drive, select it and try the conversion again, making sure the
entire file and path is present and correct.
In case you are still receiving the error message, you may be
missing a codec or have conflicting codecs on your computer. This is
likely if you are using older version of Windows or you have many video
processing applications on your computer. You will need to identify what
codec is missing or corrupt and fix it. There are several codec packs
available at sites like download.com, eg: Windows Essentials Media Codec
Pack however we do not recommend, we do not endorse and we are not
responsible for a particular codec pack.
Removing the video and keeping only the audio.
Simply
go to the Convert tab, select the video file and choose MPEG Audio
Layer 3 (MP3) from the drop-down menu. In the "Choose Quality" dialog
you can choose the quality of the mp3 output file. Keep in mind that a
higher quality implies a larger file size. You can modify the volume or
select only a certain part of the video from the advanced conversion
options. Click "Convert Video" and follow the progress in the activity
tab.
Converting a video with YTD for iPod Touch.
Since
the iPod Touch is more similar to the iPhone, than to the iPod, in
order to convert videos for iPod Touch, please choose "iPhone Video" as
the file type in the Convert tab.
Not able to play a video file converted using YTD.
It
is possible that your computer does not recognize the format of the
output file. For best playback results we recommend you to install VLC
Media Player In case you are using Windows Media Player, you need to
install or upgrade your audio and video codecs with a product such as
the Windows Essentials Media Codec Pack.
Converting a file to video DVD or audio CD.
YTD
downloads videos from various sites and converts them to several
formats. Creating a video DVD or audio CD requires converting audio and
video to the correct types and formats, as well as the ability to write
files with correct names and locations. There are several commercial and
free products available that will help you create a video DVD or audio
CD with videos downloaded using YTD.
Please also review this FAQ.
Converting to PSP format is failing.
Converting
a file in PSP requires both audio and video data. MP3 files will not be
successfully converted to PSP. Also, video files without sound or with
the volume set to 0 will not be converted to PSP. Make sure your file
has both audio and video data before converting to PSP.
Downloading videos with subtitles using YTD.
YTD will download only the original video. The subtitles are separately introduced in it and will not be downloaded by YTD.
