Must have been asked before, but could you please help/

Can anyone give a step by step guide to how I can convert a youtube video clip, into a suitable format and then transfer it to a disc, to be played on a DVD player?

Thanks in anticipation.

Youtube clips are normally saved as '.flv' files. You will need to get some software that can convert .flv files to the DVD format (vob) then you can compile and burn them straight to a recordable DVD using Nero or Burn For Free.

Thank you for your answers.
NazNomad as you can see in the link you kindly provided, I had trouble with it then and still can't do it, hence my latest question.

Answerprancer Could I burn them using Media Player, as one would a MP3?
As far as I know, you can only burn data (ie. non video) DVDs in Media Player. You will need either Nero or an equivalent to burn a video DVD (which will be playable on most if not all normal DVD players).

Thanks for all your help, I have managed to do it using a programme called

Free YouTube to DVD converter

When I put the recorded disc into my computer it gives me the option to play it via Windows Media Player.

I have not tried it yet on my DVD player, but there shouldn't be a problem, hopefully.

Thank you both once again.
