If I understand correctly and in response to above, google has shut down several "converter sites" due to copyright infringements: http://www.real.com/resources/youtube-to-mp3-converter There are other sites available to download video content from (again, assuming you're abiding by the copyright guidelines) : This lists five sites where you can find and download online videos free. To make sure a video is legal to download, look for licensing information about the video. Typically, videos with a “Creative Commons” license are legal to download, but may have limitations on how you use the video. http://www.real.com/resources/download-one-video

To download a file i used the following Code. Hope it will work for you too.

- (IBAction)getFileFromFtpServer:(UIView *)sender
{

  NSString *stringURL = @"http://player.vimeo.com/video/32983838";
NSURL  *url = [NSURL URLWithString:stringURL];
NSData *urlData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url];
if ( urlData )
{
  NSArray       *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
  NSString  *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];  

  NSString  *filePath = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@", documentsDirectory,@"filename.mpeg4"];
  [urlData writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES];
}


}

    Try this here your video is playing..

 - (void)viewDidLoad
{
  [super viewDidLoad];
  UIWebView*  webView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 380)]; 
    webView.delegate=self;
   [webView setOpaque:NO];
    webView.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
    CGRect screen = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
    CGFloat width = CGRectGetWidth(screen);
    CGFloat height = CGRectGetHeight(screen);
   UIActivityIndicatorView * activityIndicator = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc]        initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleWhite];
    activityIndicator.frame=CGRectMake((width/2) - 10,(height/2) - 54, 20, 20);
    activityIndicator.center=self.view.center;
    [activityIndicator hidesWhenStopped];

   [self  playVideo];
}
  -(void) playVideo
    {
     NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://player.vimeo.com/video/32983838"];
            NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
            [self.webView loadRequest:request];
            [activityIndicator startAnimating];
            [webView addSubview:activityIndicator];
    }

    /*   WebViewDidStartLoad   */
    - (void)webViewDidStartLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
    {
       [activityIndicator startAnimating];
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible:YES]; 
    }

    /*   WebViewDidFinishLoad   */
    - (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
    {
         [activityIndicator stopAnimating];
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible:NO]; 
    }
    /*   WebViewdidFailLoadWithError   */
    - (void)webView:(UIWebView *)webView didFailLoadWithError:(NSError *)error
    {
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible:NO]; 
    }
