Apply the "Watch Videos Offline" module in iCab. You may also want to increase the download limit in the settings applet.

Browse to the youtube video you want. Click the modules button and select "Watch Videos Offline".

edit - hmm. it's not working for me right now from my iPhone, but the iPad version is fine.
edit 2 - I just tried again and it is working fine on both the iPhone and iPad.

Thanks!
 
I just wanted to add my thanks to Snowman3459. I wouldn't have known about MiTube until it was too late.
 
You know there is a firefox extension that does this same thing on your mac/pc, ive been using it for years and its great, pretty much the only reason I use firefox, for those who havent heard of it its called media converter.
 
I was lucky enough to get MiTube before it got pulled. Does anyone know how to transfer Mxtube movie files using SSH so they can be viewed in MiTube?

I have my MxTube files on my pc and have found where MiTube stores it's saved files (user/applications/(bunch of random letters)/documents) but if I just drop the mp4 files there they don't show up. Is there a plist document somewhere like MxTube had that I need to edit so they show up?

Thanks.

and thanks to OP for the heads up on this app

Thanks for your reply. Doesn't that download youtube to your pc (correct me if I'm wrong)? I wan't to store random youtube clips on my iphone 4. Mitube does it perfectly but I want to be able to transfer the Mxtube clips I've already downloaded.

SSH into your phone and move them
 
The guy who makes it has been on the phone to Google and says it might get put back on the App Store, but knowing Apple, I doubt it.

I was talking to ARF900 about firefox extention hence the quote :p you know since they mentioned a firefox extention :p and then thanks the OP for the heads up.

you can transfer your downloaded mitube clips to PC via iTunes in the apps tab at the bottom

There are several similar apps in the Android Marketplace. If Google has problem with them, they'd be pulled a long time ago. Once again all hail to the App Store censorship.

Wow, Youtube (owned by Google) isn't taking action to remove apps for their own OS? Not exactly the best proof that Google is OK with it.
If Google doesn't have a problem with it, they should remove the section from the ToS agreement. Simple as that.

if you see my last post with screenshot there is file sharing option to save files and add files to that app.... try that?
Click to expand...

I did try that but it didn't work. I was able to transfer files from Mitube to the pc using that but not the other way. Just to clarify - I want to be able to watch the Mxtube clips on my iPhone 4 using Mitube. Those Mxtube clips are saved on my pc as mp4's.

odd to add the ability to file share and not have it work both ways
Click to expand...

Thats what I thought. Will try again tonight and see if I can get it to work. BTW, the files are how I got them (via ssh) from Mxtube - just mp4's. I shouldn't have to convert them to something else for this to work should I?

I know this, but Apple's excuse for pulling it was that it violated YouTube's TOS.
 
my issue is that i downloaded a 720p file on youtube using mitube and i transferred it to my pc but i am unable to re-transfer it to my iphone. is there any work around for this?
