Adyodo

Adyodo is a software application that provides users with a simple means of searching for videos on YouTube, downloading and converting them to audio files.

The installation process does not last longer than a few seconds and it does not offer to add any third-party products. Once you wrap it up, you are brought to a plain and simple interface, as it only contains a few buttons and a pane in which to display all queued items.

Although Help contents are not supported, you can easily learn how to handle it, even if you happen to be a novice user.

You can easily search for videos on the Internet in a new window according to a keyword, open them in your default web browser, preview or add them to the download list. It is also possible to simply paste the URL that interests you in the main window.

This program enables you to download videos using an MP4, FLV, WEBM or 3GP format and a custom quality level, while you can also set it up to automatically convert the video to an MP3 or M4A audio extension. Projects can be saved to the hard drive using a proprietary format.

From the settings panel you can change the output directory, parse the name of the artists and title of the song (if possible), enable a 3D mode for videos, add supported files to iTunes and establish action when duplicates are encountered.

In conclusion, Adyodo is a pretty efficient piece of software when it comes to grabbing videos from the Internet. The interface is suitable to all users, all tasks are performed in a decent time window and the CPU and memory usage is low at all times. However, it is important to keep in mind that you might not always download all videos due to some YouTube restrictions.
