People record them from their TV onto their computer, edit the clips accordingly, then upload them to their YouTube channel.

I will not make a charge for supplying you with the solution to your problem.

Tape to dvd on a dvd-rw disk. Then use this program 'ImToo DVD Ripper Platinum 4'(download this from a torrent site) which converts your disk file into a WMV file that you will upload to Youtube.

Always convert files to wmv if uploading to youtube as other files take to long to load and people wont bother to view them !wink!

YouTube converts all uploaded files to .flv format, so it makes no difference what format they were uploaded as.

Steve R is correct, Youtube uses flash player so can only work withy .flv files.

That is to do with pressure on the server/your internet connection speed at any given moment and has nothing whatsoever to do with the video being watched.
