Re: copying DVD material :: somewhat OT. youtube-dl

Chris said:

I tried youtube-dl but every url I tried gave
youtube-dl: No match.
eg
%youtube-dl http://youtube.com/watch?v=gpIM3nBR2ZA
youtube-dl: No match.

I'm sure someone else is going to jump in saying to qoute the URL, but and even easier way is to grab the string after watch?v= in your example :
[23:29:22] jimmie@fortytwo <104> [0] ~>youtube-dl gpIM3nBR2ZA
Retrieving video webpage... done.
Extracting URL "t" parameter... done.
Requesting video file... done.Video data found at http://chi-v274.chi.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=gpIM3nBR2ZA
Retrieving video data: 7.8% ( 1.59M of 20.41M) at 159.43k/s ETA 02:00

It's a little be easier, IMHO.
