Hi, Next time please send your email to <debian-user@lists.debian.org> for user questions, thanks! (You can also CC me since I don't subscribe the debian-user list.)
To watch <http://www.bbc.com/news/10462520>, first install youtube-dl: $ apt-get install youtube-dl I suggest you to install vlc as well if you don't have a preferred media player yet: $ apt-get install vlc Now, you can download the video by: $ youtube-dl http://www.bbc.com/news/10462520 You can read the documentation of youtube-dl by going to <https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl>. The following is the real command I use (with additional flags if needed): $ youtube-dl --prefer-free-formats -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" <URL-OF-THE-VIDEO> Feel free to reply if this doesn't work for you.
