Do you enjoy online videos from sites like YouTube, DailyMotion and others, but you find yourself wishing you could download then to watch later, without the hassle of an internet connection?

Perhaps for a long drive, so your kids can watch tablets stuffed with (free) videos that don’t need connectivity?

Well then prepare to be happy, because there’s a way to do exactly that and we’re going to tell you how to do it.

Grab the video

Find the video you want to download, and copy its address – also called its URL, which stands for Uniform Resource Locator – to your clipboard.

To do that, highlight it with your mouse and press Control and C on your keyboard, or right-click on the highlighted address and choose Copy from the drop-down menu.

Go to site

Open a new browser window, and navigate your way to www.clipconverter.cc.

Paste

Paste the copied URL into Clip Converter’s “Media URL to Download” dialogue box.

Choose format

Before you click Continue, choose the format you’d like to save the movie file in. The default settings are fine, but if you want just the audio, or to save the video to a specific file format, this is where you make your choices.

Choose quality

Click Continue, and choose the video’s quality from the options that appear. 720p is a good compromise between quality and file size, but of course for the best quality 1080p is where it’s at.

Download

Now click Start, and once the conversion completes, click Download to save the file.

It can then be played in your favourite video player; we recommend VideoLAN, better known as VLC Player, which is available for Windows, Mac, Android and iOS.

Now all you have to do is copy those videos you’ve saved to the device they will be viewed on, and you’re set.
