Yes it can be. There are a number of different site, you just type the url of the video, and it will save it. There is even videos on youtube of how to do it. ---

Yea, try Nero burning rom. Or Windows, but lately I’ve been having issues with burning files using Microsoft’s software. ---

I also hate windows burning cds, if you do use that, just make sure you check “finalize cd” and not the “make usable on other windows computers” or whatever it says. I would suggest “ImgBurn” to make the cd, its a free, and easy straight forward program. ---

Pete, there are many ways to attain a video from you tube the simplest way was mentioned as you tube downloader. After you have downloaded it onto your desktop you can keep it really simple by creating a new folder\> Burn data\> Done!. This all depends on the goal of your project of course. Are you supposed to be able to pop it in the Blu-ray player and have it play at a maximum of 1080dp or are you just supposed to be able to put it in a normal DVD player and have it play? What’s the goal exactly? All windows based Operating systems I.e.- Windows 7, Vista( Home/Premium), XP, all come with a standard video Burning/Editing software right from the manufacturer(Windows DVD maker/ Movie maker). But they tend to freeze up depending on the Size/length in other words Megabytes of the video. I use final cut, depending on the project but that’s Mac based program. Best bet is to just \>download it and \>Create a New folder \>Put the downloaded file in there and throw in an empty CD \>Right click burn data, Depending on the OS , some will just have a iconic tab at the top of the window which says burn, click that and \> Done! … Actually now that i think about it , the easiest way for you also is just to buy a flash drive , move the downloaded file onto it and then take that with you to show your professor:thumbup. ---

OP, 1. Find YouTube Video 2. In another tab, open [http://keepvid.com/](http://keepvid.com/) 3. Copy link from YouTube Video (address bar) into KeepVid 4. Save file to DESKTOP (easier to find after) 5. Download CDBurnerXP and Install 6. Run CDBurnerXP, pick Burn Data, and burn your file onto a DVD/CD as you see fit. 7. Pass/Profit? Now…if you want it to actually play when they pop the CD into a regular DVD player…that can be done but requires much much more work. It involves downloading and/or buying video editing software, importing the downloaded video into that program, and then burning that compilation onto a CD/DVD. ---

You can use some program to help you get youtube videos and save it on your computer, I always use youtube downloader converter, it can not only download but also convert youtube video, so I can put thm to my portable device. I often [save youtube videos to computer](http://www.free-download-youtube.com/save-youtube-videos-to-computer.html)in this way. ---
