@fluteprincess352 oh so ur mp3 player has a screen n can play videos? then u need to find out which video format it supports...it gets complicated: avi is just a container...u need to find out confusing things such as codex, mp4, mov, h264 n other terms. good luck!

To clarify the tech jargon: mp3 is a name extension for some audio file types - mp4/avi are video file types. I know of a paid solution to extract a youtube video to your own computer- http://www.mediahuman.com/ Not sure about free ones, though be cautious of viruses. Some of my friends have downloaded youtube videos for free on their linux OS - probably doesn't help your situation, but I think there are some youtube tutorials on this.
