1. There are quite a few FAQs for doing this, that's what the entire forum is here for, but look into Auto Gordian Knot, MeGUI, or AutoMKV for quick hands-off methods.

2. If you're using Firefox, try the "VideoDownloader" extension.

For this I would recommend Vidomi (http://www.vidomi.com), its very user friendly and has all the options required + is free for personal use. Docs are available on the site.

Vidomi is very out of date and hasn't been updated in almost five years. AutoGK is both easier and supports the latest Xvid build.

Agreed, didnt realise it wasnt updated any longer, :thanks:

EDIT: Just read the AutoGK post, its development has also stopped Offically as of 16th May 07 and bugs fixes also might not be acted upon.
