Bug Description

Description:
With ClipGrab you can not only download videos from portals such as Youtube and Dailymotion MyVideo, but also convert in one easy step into popular file formats (WMV, MPEG, MP3, etc.).
So you can record your favorite YouTube videos anytime and anywhere watch and listen from the PC via a DVD player bishinzu MP3 players.

With ClipGrab can simply download videos in "usable" formats, from many different online video portals with a few mouse clicks.

And since ClipGrab can also store the videos as audio-only file, you can also just listen.

ClipGrab can download up to eleven videos simultaneously!

How does it work?

Downloading a video with ClipGrab takes four simple steps.
Here the example of a YouTube clip shows:
1) "Copy" the video-link from the browser address bar. At Youtube it looks like this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=MC18FQHo0Kk
2) In the ClipGrab window, "Paste" the link in one of the designated input fields (right click-> Paste | [Ctrl] + [V]).
3) Click on "Preview" to verify that the correct video is selected.
4) Select the desired format and click the "start downloading!" Button.

ClipGrab currently supports the following video websites:

    * Youtube.com
    * MyVideo.de
    * DailyMotion.com
    * Google Video Google Video
    * Clipfish.de
    * Veoh.com
    * Blip.tv

In addition, ClipGrab uses a "heuristics" system to guess how to download Flash videos from many other web sites. If you're not sure, try out.

ClipGrab currently supports the following formats for saving:

    * MPEG4 (Video)
    * WMV (Video)
    * MP3 (Audio Only)
    * OGG Vorbis (Audio Only)
