Ubuntu wouldn't run without installing. I have XP and Vista double booted and think that might be it. After installing something from the live CD I could boot from the live CD.

How long did you wait after saving the video to the pendrive before unplugging it? Depending upon the device, copying six gigs of data to a pendrive might take over an hour -- even a fast pendrive is going to take over a minute for each gig of data.
EDIT: Note that these long delays are owing to limitations of the pendrive device; writing to a USB (2.0) harddisk, you should expect a rate of about one gig every 15 seconds or thereabouts.
