Converting YouTube videos – now with video titles !
We’ve just updated Zamzar’s YouTube video conversion service, so that converted videos are now named with the title of the video from YouTube.
Previously videos had just been using the YouTube video ID, which often resulted in some rather odd names for your converted videos !
We hope you enjoy the change

TeacherTube / Tangle video conversions fixed
Hi,
You can now once more use Zamzar to convert videos from TeacherTube and Tangle (the new name for GodTube).
This functionality had worked in the past, but some buglets in the system meant it was broken for the past few months. We’ve now fixed those to allow you to convert again (thanks for your patience).
