I.e. in the sentence:

I'm searching for gardening related videos.

or:

You may download the two videos at this link…

Thanks.

It is common to use "videos" to describe a plurality of video presentations of some kind, so both of your sentences are correct. On the other hand, if a station has video in the form of three satellite feeds, it has three video feeds, not three videos. Video in the sense of video data is a mass or uncountable noun.

Now, your "gardening related" should be "gardening-related" because the two words taken together function as an adjective applying to videos.
