First unpack (either via CLI or Nautilus context menu).

Then compile.

You do realize there are addons for browsers to do this as well as youtube-dl in the repos....

Can this work for sights other than Youtube? I know how to get a youtube video, just go to the "tmp" file that is in your " \ " directory. That is where the youtube video is stored while it's being played. So you can just copy it and paste it into any place you want and you have it saved. But I need to " rip " videos from other sights than youtube. How can I do this?
