Programming a Video Downloader Script?

    What all is required in creating a script to run off of a website that would grab videos from youtube and convert them into several formats (.wmv, .mov). There are multiple sites on the internet such as http://vixy.net/ that perform this function. I am wondering if there is a canned script available that will do this? How would I go about creating a site to convert youtube videos into multiple formats? Not just downloading the .flv but actually converting it into .wmv and .mov all in one step.

    Split the task into small part

    downloading the video
    /*code*/

    converting the video
    /*code*/

    generating url to download the newly converted video
    /*code*/

    Aint try this before but with research am sure it can easily be done, its nothing genius.
