No one likes to sit through ads while watching YouTube, but judging from the marginal revenue Google has made from YouTube Red subscriptions, consumers appear unwilling to pay for ad-free streaming or offline playback of content they’re used to watching for free. But there may be another reason: It’s just too darned easy to download videos. Airy makes it easy to download YouTube videos just by copying and pasting the URL. YouTube downloader ($20) is a small utilit that makes it easy to download otherwise inaccessible YouTube content. After logging into your account, copy and paste a URL from the YouTube website, select the desired format and resolution, click Download, then choose where the file should be saved. Airy takes care of the rest. Airy downloads YouTube videos at a variety of resolutions, including up to 4K in MP4 format.
Feb 26, 2012 EasyCap USB C60 Product Review The EasyCap C60 USB2.0 audio/video adapter captures high-quality video and audio directly through your USB port all while allowing you to record in your favorite DVD.
There’s also an “Open in Airy” bookmarklet, installed by selecting “Integrate into Browser” from the application menu, which streamlines the process for videos already open in your preferred browser. It would be nice to have proper Safari extension support, but this down-and-dirty method gets the job done. Most videos can be downloaded in MP4 or 3GP format in a variety of resolutions, all the way up to 4K files for the former when available. Music video fans will love the MP3 option which extracts the audio track only, but there’s no way to select the desired bitrate. Everything downloads at 256Kbps. The fine print The free version of Air has a limit of two YouTube video downloads, one at a time. Purchasing a full license allows users to queue up an unlimited number of videos, or even download entire playlists at once, one after another.
Pasting a link that’s part of a YouTube playlist? Airy picks up on this and lets the user decide to download an individual file or the entire playlist. Airy is straightforward and easy to use, but the exact same functionality is already baked into the developer’s $20 download manager, making it a better value.
Softorino’s is also available for the same price, with compelling advantages like the ability to transfer files directly to iOS devices, Vimeo support, and higher-quality M4A encoded audio. All these download utilities have one gotcha in common: Google doesn’t want you transferring videos in the first place. YouTube Terms of Service clearly prohibit the downloading of most videos, and the day may come when the search giant finds a way to block Airy and competing software so they won’t work at all. With a paid license, Airy allows you to download an unlimited number of videos, one after another. Bottom line Airy is a straightforward, easy to use YouTube downloader that gets the job done, but for the same money there are more capable utilities with better features.
BEST ANSWER: I have experienced drop out in the process of converting VHS to DVD. However I found that because of the number of devices in the process the cause varied from incident to incident. For example my Laptop is 8 years old with limited RAM and Video card. When I attached the Grabber and VCR, with the same VHS, to a well equipped Desktop unit I had no dropout. But even flaking old tapes could dropout on a one time (transient) basis. Sometimes I changed between two VCRs to solve a playback (compatibility) problem.

This device is only going to convert the video it's receiving to USB. Depending on the software you use you can make the display as large as you like but you're still subjected to the original resolution of the device attached. If you were capturing from an original Nintendo entertainment system for example your resolution would be 256x240. In this example you could display the Nintendo on a monitor designed for 1080p but at that size you'd be seeing all of the imperfections of the Nintendo's output. I have had a SIIG Grabber for a few years for personal use. I saw the Monoprice Ad and their device looked very much like the SIIG. I figured that for the price it was worth having a second device so I would not have to switch one between my Laptop and DeskTop.

It arrived two days after I ordered it. I tested it on both my computers, two different software, and both software detected it as if it was the SIIG device. I have not yet used the software that came with the Monoprice Grabber. The only frustration is that I cannot figure out what the two LEDs and the Button are for. The manual lacks that info.

Excellent quality from our old VCR machine. The video files work well.
Because I was using Windows 10, I had to apply the audio patching so the recorded file had audio. I had to use Freeware Software (Machete Lite) to clip off the nasty part at the start and end of the recorded segment because it is virtually impossible to start or stop recording at the right spot. Often a LONG blank part at the end, sigh!) Also used it to stitch the pieces created from long tapes. For 2 hour recordings, the included BlazeHDAV software created 2 video files. Now I can trash the old tapes and get rid of the VCR.
