What you will need:
Zune Sync Software (included with Zune)
The trick is so simple, I was dying of laughter when I figured it out:
First off, download “Any Video Converter” from the link above.
Second, once installed, fire up the “Any Video Converter” software, go to EDIT –> OPTIONS and set the OUTPUT folder (on top) to one of the folders that the Zune software monitors for video files.
Third, set the format in “Any Video Converter” to either WMV or MP4 – make sure that you set the proper resolution (320x240) frame rate (auto) and audio bitrate (128+).
Fourth, open up YouTube, go to a list of videos and simply drag and drop the URL into “Any Video Converter”.
Finally, click “CONVERT” and watch the software download the YouTube videos, convert them and drop them into the Zune-monitored folder for videos. The Zune sync software will then pick up those videos and sync them to your Zune – if you are in MP4 or WMV mode it may not even have to do any conversion (depending on your settings).
Congratulations, you now have YouTube videos to go.
Unfortunately, if like you you think that some sort of RSS feed would be perfect – well – you are going to have to continue to wait. Even if most computers today can play many file formats it seems like the Zune Sync software isn’t quite there yet.
