As we know, Apple devices can't directly support flash videos because of the war between Apple and Adobe. However, most of the YouTube videos are flash SWF files. So we need to transform flash SWF to AVI if we want to view it on an Ipod Touch 4.
Before we look at methods to transform YouTube video to Ipod Touch 4, we’d want to review the Ipod Touch 4. This is the latest generation Ipod of Apple Inc. It has followed the A4 processor, built-in three axis gyro. Moreover, it might support taking HIGH-DEFINITION videos, and Facetime. And it has joined the brand-new game center. When compared to the earlier Ipod Touch, Touch 4 is much thinner and lighter. Its Retina display screen performs significantly better. What’s more, the frontal 0. 3MP camera as well as rear 0. 69MP camera might possibly support video calls as well as HIGH-DEFINITION video recording. Beside from these rewards, it also has disadvantages like it can not support flash videos.
Next, we will look at methods to transform YouTube videos to Ipod Touch 4.
1. Download a SWF to AVI converter and set it up.
2. Launch the program and just click “Browse” - “From URL”.
3. Duplicate and paste the code in “Embed” of the video playing page on YouTube to a text file.
4. Find the "src=", duplicate and also paste the chosen part below as URL address to the pop-up URL box.
Now, the video has been put into this software and you could capture and crop the video with this program.
5. Click “Export” and choose the output video format as AVI. Select a folder for the generated video. Also you might possibly choose “Rip Audio” to extract the music from the YouTube video.
