I downloaded Real Player wanting to download videos from You Tube. Did it with my old computer(Windows XP)with no problems. New computer(Windows 7) and Real Player is working for everything except You Tube. Before there was this "Download to RealPlayer" you could click and everything worked. Now the videos don't have that button to click so now i'm just as lost. What on earth do I need to do to download videos to Real Player from You Tube?

All right this has pi**** me off. Tried it on IE browser and the "Download This Video" button shows up on Youtube. Click on it,it downloads the video and as soon as that's done it's shows up on RealPlayer that show's it downloaded but then a window pops up saying "Real Player has stopped working." So I figure out 1 problem only to find another one. Why does this have to be this hard?
 
I have simply given up on RealPlayer to actually working. I have tried everything. Fact is computers still are to complicated to get everything to work 100% of the time. Firefox has this problem,IE has that problem. And we are supposed to try and understand this!! So I will drag out my old computer,hook it up,and take it from there. I know Realplayer will work on it with no problem. So thanks for all the help! I do appreciate it.
 
Out of curiosity, why not download the video in the original format (whatever youtube is using these days, it used to be flv probably still is) and use something that's not real player?
