Download Youtube Videos with IDM Using Proxy

How to Download Youtube Videos
Now when Youtube is blocked in some countries. People often use proxy tools (Ultrasurf, Hotspot sheild or hide ip). Then many people are facing issues while download from youtube by IDM. Because IDM needs to be configured to download youtube videos when on proxy.
Youtube Downloader Steps
if you haven’t install IDM then first you need to install it. You can download IDM from below button.
If you are not already using any proxy then I suggest you to follow below link to unblock youtube.
Make sure IDM is Complete. You can follow steps in read me document of its folder.
Run Ultrasurf and wait until it is connected.
Open IDM and go to Option button.
Click the “Proxy/Socks” Tab and hit button “Get From IE”
Then press OK and Close the options.
Now Open Youtube in browser.
You’ll see IDM link on corner of youtube video. Click it and youtube video downloading will begin successfully.
If you hit any issues while downloading video from youtube let me know.

After running ultrasurf when youtube is unblocked.
Open IDM settings and go into Proxy settings. Click the button Get from IE and then save and exit settings.
After that restart chrome and open youtube then download button will appear and it will start downloading. Also updated IDM extension for google chrome- #31 written by martman 12 years ago

Hi there, as YouTube has been blocked in Pakistan so I have been using Hotspot Shield to open it. But, unfortunately, for the last few days, Hotspot stopped working. After browsing on net, I found Ultra Surf 13.01 and now I can open YouTube but can’t download the videos. Though, I have changed the proxy settings of IDM but still not successful. I will really appreciate your kind advice. Regards
