- Download YouTube videos effortlessly
This a Text LargeYouTube generally doesn’t allow users to download videos. However, users found out many ways to download. But, there is an easy trick to do this. Adding just two letters in the URL will allow downloading the video.
All, you need to do is to add ss just before YouTube.com. Let’s understand with the example below:
Normal Video URL => http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZyAB2KFDls
After adding ss => http://www.ssyoutube.com/watch?v=jZyAB2KFDls
Once you added the ss in the URL, hit enter which will take you to a third party site as you can see in the screenshot below:
Now, just click on download and video will be downloaded.
This is indeed the best trick to download YouTube videos. - Bypass age and regional restriction without logging in
There are times when you browse YouTube without logging in, and you may find some videos that are age or region restricted. To remove such restrictions, you need to log in. Once you log in, you get the access to that age-restricted or region-restricted video.
However, there is a trick that bypasses these restrictions without even logging in, and to do that you have to do editing in the video URL.
Take an example of a video URL which looks as:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZyAB2KFDls [Though this video is not restricted; I have taken it just to elaborate. You can try this trick on age-restricted videos yourself.]
All you need to do is to, remove “watch?” and replace “=” with “/”, and hit enter. You will see that the restricted video starts playing.
So, the new URL will be:
http://www.youtube.com/v/jZyAB2KFDls
Mind it that when you try this trick, the video will only play full screen on your browser like you can see below
Isn’t this a cool trick? - Make YouTube Keyboard Driven
Do you want to use YouTube by using your keyboard only?
It might be tough, right? Because YouTube’s UI doesn’t seem to be Keyboard friendly.
However, there is a trick that will transform the YouTube’s UI Keyboard driven that you can easily use by Keyboard.
All you have to do is to add /leanback to the YouTube link, just like this
Note: Alternatively you can just write /tv as well to get the same result.
Now you can press arrow buttons on the keyboard to use YouTube, and you will find it very easy. As you will press left arrow there, you will see a menu on the left to select categories and other stuff. You can use respective arrow keys to move through videos.
I loved this YouTube trick because I am a huge fan of working with the Keyboard.More to be added soon, so stay tuned.
