Actually, the file I download with the following link saves as "get_video" with no extension. But that's probably by design because youtube isn't supporting this feature of directly downloading flv files, so it doesn't suggest a filename with something like HTTP header Content-Disposition.

=> Incomplete. The provided steps don't result in a ".htm" file, but this is also probably something YouTube doesn't directly support.

¿Incompleted?

Please, reconsider to take the subjet again.


I've followed the appointed steps using the same link:

3.At restarting the download, Mozilla Firefox assigns automatically the extension "htm", when at the begining the file's description detects it as "video/flv" (see the first image).

Couldn't it be better to assign the file as "get_video" instead of "get_video.html"?
