More and more videos are going to YouTube, there must be some videos that you want to save to your Mac for editing, or burn the video to DVD to play on your large screen TV. This step by step guide will show you every detail to convert and burn YouTube video to DVD for playback on DVD player.



There are many free ways to download YouTube video to Mac for free
Method1: Use safari browser
This way is a little complicate for computer newbie, anyway, you can try it. Launch safari browser and open the YouTube you want to download, click Command+Option+A to open the ‘Activity Monitor’ window, Look through the activity from YouTube – Video Name, look for the largest file size and double click to download it. That’s all, the YouTube video will be saved in the Finder



Method2. Use free online converter
zamzar.com is a free online video downloader, open your safari browser, type zamzar.com in the URL box. When you open the website index, click the download tab. Copy the YouTube ULR into step1 box. And then type your email address in the step3 box. Once zamzar.com finishes the YouTube downloading, it will send a download link to your email address.

Method3. With free YouTube downloader
If you often download YouTube videos to your Mac, a YouTube downloader is necessary. The downloading speed and quality are better than online converter. I have tried some downloader, and this Mac YouTube downloader works the best.

Now, let’s gone burn the YouTube video to DVD. Because the downloaded YouTube is flv video, and DVD format is VOB, it contains two folders Video_TS and Audio_TS, you have to convert your YouTube video to DVD compatible video and finalize the DVD, or else regular DVD player cannot read and play it. I have tried many YouTube to DVD Burners and recommend this DVD Creator for YouTube. I have scanned it with Norton Virus Protector, it's safe without any virus and spyware.

Step1. Download and install the DVD Creator for YouTube, and then launch it.

Step2. Click ‘Create a new project’. And then drag and drop your downloaded YouTube video into the DVD Creator.



Step3. Put a blank DVD disc into your Mac DVD burner, click ‘Burn’ to the next steps. Select DVD disc as output format and click save. The DVD Creator will automatically convert the YouTube video to DVD format and burn YouTube video to DVD, that’s all. It couldn’t be easier to enjoy YouTube video on TV like that.
