Convert YouTube videos for Zune with ZuneIEPlugin
Zune Thoughts mentioned this IE plugin that adds a one-button file converter to your browser with a single purpose: convert .flv files to Zune compatible .wmv files. .flv files are typically used by YouTube and Google Video, so this could come in handy to carry those videos on your Zune.
I ran the quick install this morning on IE 7 within Vista and hit up our YouTube channel for the shortest video (our "iTunes movies on a UMPC" production). I clicked the "Zune It" button in my IE tool bar and saw that the YouTube video was then downloaded automatically to my "Videos" folder. The plugin install will actually create subfolders in your "Videos" folder: one each for YouTube, Google Video and SoapBox.
A few minutes later, thanks to the ffdshow video decoder that the plugin uses, I had a .wmv file in the YouTube subfolder; a simple addition of that folder to my Zune software library provided auto-synchronization. The entire process ran seamlessly in the background and the 11 minute video was downloaded and converted in about 8 minutes!
Is here a Firefox version?!!?
KCT, you’re my hero!
It’s neat, but needs a Firefox version!
I downloaded this software and after updating my .net framework to verion 2.0 was able to install the software. However, it does not work. When I click on the Zune It button, I get a message that says “ZuneIEPlugin: Failure to download. Check EventVwr Object reference not set to an instance of an object.” My only option is to click Ok. It closes and does nothing. What am I doing wrong?
It’s very cool.
Would be nice if it could automagically grab the highest quality (full screen) source to avoid too much quality loss
pl sent it fast required.
hi
Can anyone help? I’m still getting the same error message after unistalling and reinstalling. This plug-in seems to be worthless!

You can also try this YouTube Downloader, which is a also a pretty good YouTube FLV video converter.
It can automatically detect the YouTube video files from the YouTube web pages you have opened and download multiple files at a time. It can also batch convert downloaded YouTube video files or local FLV files for playback on Zune and other popular mobile devices.
