YouTube.com(link1) is a great resource. YouTube allows users to freely
upload, view, and even share video clips on your blog or web site. Now
the new iPad is a much better device to videos on than any previous
version of the iPod and iPhone, there are many people curious about how
to get their YouTube video files into a format that the iPad can play.
Thankfully, there are a slew of sites and software packages that will
allow you to convert just about any video format to the H.264 mp4 format
that iPad requires.
Here are the best solutions for converting YouTube video to iPad online
as well as off. Some will convert video you have on your local Mac
computer while others will only convert videos that you find online. In
any case, you will wind up with a video file in the correct format for
your iPad or other mobile device.
Online sites to easily download and convert YouTube for iPad
CatchYouTube(link2) is a free service that converts online videos to
several formats including the MP4 format that you need for Apple
devices. Simply paste the video URL from sites like YouTube, Google
video, MetaCafe, etc. and select the .mp4 output format.
While the service is extremely simple to use, it must be mentioned that
it can take an eternity sometimes for this service to convert even the
smallest video. Sometimes it just times out or fails without any
explanations. Still, most of the time it will do the trick if you want
to do a quick conversion or two. For more than a handful, you'll be
better off with another solution that handles batch processing.
VideoDownloader(link3) is similar to CacthYouTube except it doesn't
provide you with any output options. What you see is what you get when
you download the video from the services they support: YouTube, Google,
BlipTV, DailyMotion and a few others. So, if you can't download the
video .mp4 format, you'll have to convert it with another separate
utility which isn't a big deal or expense.
Movavi Online Convert(link4) is another online video converter that
provides the unique ability to download and convert up to five different
online videos as one video. You can add all of the URLs and the service
will send you an email with a link to download when it's done. It could
take a long time, so it's not good if you're in a hurry.
Software to batch download and convert YouTube for iPad
There are a few software that focus on downloading and converting
YouTube videos on Mac. For example, there’s the iFunia YouTube Converter
for Mac(link5) that downloads YouTube videos and converts them to the
appropriate iPad MPeg-4 H.264 format for you. The program also features
a handy batch mode which allows you to download several YouTube videos
at one time, making this process more efficient. Here are the easy steps
for Mac users how to use the product.
Step 1. Launch and add YouTube URL to iFunia YouTube Downloader for Mac
Download iFunia YouTube Downloader for Mac(link6) and open the tool.
Click "Add URL" button to add YouTube URL. There are the field for a
Video URL, the field for an output path. Simply copy-n-paste a YouTube
or Google URL to the Video URL field. The URL looks like:
http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=uTJAsZP2iLk. And then specify a directory
on your computer to save the output FLV files. Note that you can only
add one video URL at one time. But you're able to add multiple videos
for download by repeating this step.
Step 2. Download YouTube videos
After the URLs have been added, click "Download" button and start your
magic YouTube downloading now. The download timing depends on your
internet boardband.
Step 3. Convert YouTube to iPad-ready format
After the download are complete, you can now convert them to the formats
compatible with iPad. Choose the output format for your iPad from the
“Profile†drop-down menu list and click "Convert" button. There are also
vavious output settings like bitrate, channel, framerate, resolution,
etc. Personally, I prefer to stick with the default profile because the
good video and audio quality given by the program. You just have to pick
and choose which profile you want to keep on your iPad. Play around and
see which results you like best.
How to Copy YouTube Videos to iPad via iTunes
After converting all your YouTube FLV videos to the appropriate video
format for your iPad, you'll need to store them on your computer in the
right place so that iTunes can do its job and copy the videos to your
device. The best thing to do is create a new folder on your system
called, for example, iPad Videos, and copy the newly converted videos to
that folder. You can also get into the habit of converting new videos
straight to that folder to save steps and time later on.
Once you have your videos in one place, simply launch iTunes, click on
the Movies icon and click the File menu. Select Add Folder to Library,
then select the new iPad Videos folder that you created. iTunes will
then suck in all of the videos that it finds in that folder.
Click on your iPad under DEVICES and select the Video Tab. Then Enable
the Sync Movies option, and select all of the videos that you want to
copy to your iPad. You can pick and choose which ones you want at any
time.
The next time you sync, all of the videos you selected will be copied to
your iPad. You can view them by launching the iPod app on your iPad and
selecting the video option.
Conclusion
This was just a sampling of the many cool tools out there that can help
you download and convert YouTube FLV videos into a format that you can
use on your iPad. In most cases, you can do so for free. However, some
of the premium packages and services appear to be well worth their
nominal fees when you consider everything they provide. In any case, you
can enjoy any of your favorite YouTube videos on the new iPad.
