Thanks also to Kino. I've also downloaded it.

hello Brian -- you, like me, should be outside 
enjoying the glorious spring weather! Actually, 
I'm going to rush out now and spend the last 90 
minutes of daylight today doing nasty things to 
elm suckers in the backyard. Did four hours on 
them yesterday.

You need to know the name of the clip or at least 
some key words for it before you start.

You launch the app, then in the search panel at 
the top type in some key words, e.g. alien 
survive, which will bring up a list of YouTube 
videos. The first few in this case, will be the 
little green one-eyed figure singing Gaynor's 
song  "I will survive!" 43 seconds long.

Set where you want it downloaded to, set the format, and Bob's your uncle.

Another one I tried, hippo lion, brought up the 
hippo singing "The Lion Sleeps tonight", but you 
can't download it -- it's locked.

Cheers, geoff
