Youtube to DVD is not a good idea since the video quality on youtube is low for faster loading. Youtube videos are a flash video (FLV) file and need to be converted to a DVD format before burning onto DVD discs. Anyway my guess is the picture quality will be pretty bad if you convert from youtube FLV files to DVD. You can download and play videos on your computer in two ways: 1. Copy paste video link on www.keepvid.com and download the file. You'll also see a link there for a free FLV player. 2. Search for "Democracy Player" on google. It is a good open source media player. It has a great feature where you can search youtube videos and download them into your library.
