The Easiest Way To Download An Entire YouTube Playlist In Your Computer


The problem with YouTube playlists is that some of them are so big that it is difficult to watch all of them in one go. I watch a lot of YouTube videos daily (some of them includes television soaps/ serials/ sports matches). Most of the videos I watch belong to a playlist and often times, I would want to download an entire YouTube playlist for offline viewing.
Previously, I was using the excellent Free YouTube Download tool to download all the videos of a YouTube Playist. But that tool is Windows only and I switched to MAC a year back.
So I was looking for a universal solution to download all the videos of a YouTube playlist, something which should be entirely webbased. Here is the best way to do it
You will need Mozilla Firefox as your browser and two add-ons – Download them all and ByTubeD bulk YouTube video downloader.
Here is how it works.ByTubeD playlist downloader for YouTube will grab all the video links from the YouTube playlist page. When all the video links are grabbed, the add-on will generate an HTML page containing all the links of the YouTube playlist. The rest is easy, Download Them all will download all those videos for you in one click,
After you have installed the above mentioned add-ons in Firefox, go to the YouTube Playlist page, right click and choose “ByTubeHD”
The add-on will grab all the links from the YouTube playlist page. You can select the output video format (MP4, FLV, 3GP, WebM) and the output video quality (144P, 240P, 360P, 720P, 1080P, HD or original). Choose “Generate links” and save the HTML webpage in your computer.
Next, open the webpage in Firefox and you should see the links of all the videos of the YouTube playlist listed one after another

Right click, choose “Download them all” and you are all done. Download them all add-on will download all the videos of the YouTube playlist one by one and save in your computer’s download folder. This is by far the best way to save a YouTube playlist for offline viewing.
