Brian Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 You'd have to use a program to download the YouTube videos then you could just transfer them to the SD card if it's big enough which I think you'll find yourself changing SD cards a lot and really wouldn't be worth while. Does the head-unit have a USB port? You could buy an external hard drive and use the same process but transfer to the HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 The same would apply to say a DVD that you were able to have a digital copy or if you downloaded movies. Just transfer them to the HDD then plug into USB port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferocious Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 What kind of videos are you trying to play? clips? music videos? movies?I would just download the youtube videos into say .mp4 formats and copy them onto the SD card. That should work fine.I have 1000+ songs on my 8gb SD card that's connected to my headunit and I can just select the songs using the menu buttons.

Brian Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yeah. If you're just trying to have YouTube clips on there then SD will be fine. I was thinking more along the lines of DVDs, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
