For eg :
Youtube: get_video => video.flv

There are several applications you can use for this purpose. We are thinking about a new service that could be added, but for now we recommend you to use : Replay Converter.

Why can't you just allow us to convert it using DLvidZ?
As i say, where are thinking about a new service that could help you in converting file directly on the web, but for know it's too complicated. That kind of operation require big ressources we don't have... and the job is often not as good as when you do it whith a software on your computer.
