At next video tutorial I'm going to teach you a very simple way to download videos format flash to view them directly on the computer without the need for a network connection.
To achieve this, we will do it with the command Clive which is one of the easiest to use and comfortable for users with less knowledge in the Ubuntu operating system and the much dreaded terminal.
For the example I have selected one of the video tutorials from the You Tube channel Ubunlog, which we will download from the terminal itself and host it on our computer for a later viewing or private collection.
The first thing we have to do is install Clive from own terminal, so we open a new terminal window with the key combination CTRL + ALT + T and we will click the following line:
-
sudo apt-get install clive
We confirm the installation by clicking the S and when it finishes we will be able to use the command to download our videos directly to the computer.
To download any compatible video from a website we will only have to use the command Clive more the video url in question.
-
clive video url
The screenshot above corresponds to the video selected from the channel of Ubunlog which we are using as a practical example.
If we want to know the formats or qualities available to download the video, we will do it by checking with the following command:
-
clive -F URL of the video
With the command above we will have the full report of the available formats, if we look at the image below, we will have it available in flash but several qualities to select:
Now to select a format we will only have to use the following command:
-
clive -f fmt05_240p http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-fSFHszp_A
As we can see in the image below, the download of the video will begin that will be saved by default in our personal folder.

And by default what format and low quality?
By default it downloads it in the original format and quality in which the video was uploaded to the channel.
It is best to use the -F command and choose the available format and quality. Greetings.

Do not can instal some pack. This may mean that
you asked for an impossible situation or, if you are using the distribution

The following information can help resolve the situation:
