This is the first version of ZuneMyTube that allows an end-user to download and save youtube and googlevideo videos in a WMV format. It installs an Internet Explorer plugin that adds the "Zune icon" to Internet Explorer's toolbar (top right). For some users, if the toolbar is "locked", it will appear in the drop down menu at the top right portion of the toolbar. When you watch a video on YouTube or GoogleVideo, just click on the Zune icon. It will download the video to "My Documents\My Videos\Youtube" and "My Documents\My Videos\GoogleVideo" directory and transcode it to the .WMV format. This file can be played back by Windows Media Player, Zune player. If you select the My Videos and its subdirectories for synch'ing to your Zune or PlayForSure video player, it will be available to you on the portable player. Please let me know if there are any issues you encounter...

I have had a couple problems. One is I have gotten many messages saying "The source was not found, but some or all event logs could not be searched. Inaccessible logs: Secrurity." And then it tells me that the download has failed. Another is one time while on Google it gave me a message saying I needed to be on YouTube or Google. The first problem is the one I want a solution to more.

The problem here could be the ffdshow plug-ins for flv decoding. Can you pls try getting the latest ffdshow plugins from ffdshow tryouts on sourceforge; quit Internet explorer, restart it and see if this is reproducible? Pls let me know if that works.

Just so i dont get the wrong plugin and do something i shouldnt, would you mind giving me the url for the plugin(s)you want me to try? Also, i have resently discovered that zunemytube works for the Administrator profile on my laptop. I use a limited account regularly such as i am now. The Administrator profile doesnt receive the error. (I assume you are assisting with the first problem i had quoted. If not tell me. The other i came across only once.)

That is great help. Yes, I was referring to the first one. OK - this is the problem with my code then. I will run with lower privileges to see if I can repro it. You don't need to try out any plug-ins. You have already provided me with some ideas. Thanks a lot!
