However, VLC allows me to record ANY streamed audio or video.

Multi-platform, brainless, updated very frequently, worked on all sites 
I've tried (not only Youtube, but also TV channels replay sites, and 
more).


Have a nice day!

The name "Download YouTube Videos" is what was embedded in the
install.rdf file of the extension's .xpi file.  That also was the name
associated with the now defunct adsons.mozilla.org Web page.

There are five bazillion extensions with similar names.

Do you mean "Download Youtube Video" by 1ClickProduct?
Or perhaps "YouTube Video and Audio Downloader" by InBasic?
Or "1-Click YouTube Video Download" by "The 1-Click YouTube Video Download 
Team"?

The problem with extensions these days is that most have
switched to WebExtensions. Older versions may no longer
work with a fast moving site such as YouTube.

Extension: Download YouTube Videos

[David E. Ross]

The Download YouTube Videos extension no longer seems to work.  I think
this is a result of a change done at YouTube and not something in either
SeaMonkey or the extension.  The Web page in addons.mozilla.org
indicates the developer has removed the extension.

There is a work-around using Video LAN (VLC) from
.

1.  I start a YouTube video in SeaMonkey, copy the URI, and stop the
YouTube stream.

2.  After launching VLC, I select [Media > Open Network Stream] on its
menu bar.

3.  I select the Play button on the Open Media window and VERY QUICKLY
select the red Record button on the main VLC window.

4.  [The following applies to Windows' [Libraries > Videos], where VLC
writes the recorded file.  Similar methods should exist in other systems.]
a.  On the VLC menu bar, I select [Media > Convert/Save], the resulting
File tab, and the +Add button.
b.  Navigating to [Libraries > Videos] in the file-selection window, I
select the recorded file and select Convert from the pull-down menu from
the Convert/Save button using the down-pointing triangle.
c.  On the Convert window, I select the "Video - H.264 + MP3 (MP4)"
profile, navigate to where I really want to save the converted stream
file, enter my preferred file-name, and select the Start button.

5.  After checking that VLC can indeed play the converted file, I delete
the original recorded file.
