Most of you already know this..anyway

Whether its swf,mov,wmv,etc,etc in a page


Method 1 - Via page info
-right clik on page (not on the actaul movie) > clik "page info" > tab "media"
-look for the file described as "embed" (make sure its the right one)
-simply clik "save as"
-done

however sometimes movies take a long time to load - forexample http://www.lotsofrobots.com/Web3/MoviePlayMain/MovieDisplay/LOR_Play_V2All3.htm
so if you press "save as" - nothing will happen until the movie is totally loaded in the cache. to speed it up
-open the pageinfo>media>clik save as
-then close the page where the movie is loading
-and the "save" menu will instantly pop up.

http://img106.echo.cx/img106/3669/neoshooter19pe.png


Method 2 - via adblock extension
V1: clik on the "adblock" tablet thingy above the movie - copy the adress. (close the adblok window - dont clik Ok)
-put in adress bar > enter
-then goto "file" - save page as
-done

V2 : if the movie takes up the whole page (and in most of these cases there is no menu bar) and you cant right clik or save page as - in bottom right of firefox - clik "adblock" - copy adress - open new window in firefox, past in adress - file save page as.

There's an extension for Firefox which spose to re-enable the right click on those
sites where they think that disabling it prevents something.
(wich it does not, only takes a little more time to get the goods,
ie. its only annoying)

or u can right click a Site, Choose "View Source" and search for any kinda of Media Formats, Example:
Search for a ".Mov" for Quick time formats and copy the URL.

to view sources without right-clicking: [Ctrl]-[U] ;) (works in mozilla too)

Sucks, tried to save something from wwe.com and it saved a stupid playlist and not the movie

ripping my ass (lol, no pun intended ;))

Vargas
06-26-2005, 08:26 PM
open the playlist with notpad and use a download manager like GetRight, StreamBox!VCR, or Net Transport.

Ricey
06-26-2005, 09:50 PM
huh? So what do i do with the download manager?

Vargas
06-26-2005, 10:31 PM
use it to download the files in the playlist of course, getright for http, streambox for mms or net transport for anything the first two can't handle

Ricey
06-26-2005, 10:35 PM

Very useful information. Unfortunately I can't get anything to work on Showtime's site. I'm trying to save a video on this page (http://www.sho.com/site/weeds/bts.do) titled "Your dealer name..."

I've tried every variation of the file source, tried Firefox and MSIE, Net Transport, Flash Saving Plugin. Nothing seems to work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

does dta work with Real Media audio/videos too?

Vargas

i never used that extention since i use a different browser, but if the site has links to "just the playlist files" you will need to open them with notepad and copy the URL into a download manager like net transport to download the full media files via rtsp or http

your mileage may vary :)

Wow, this thread is old... Nowadays IŽd recommend the "Downloadhelper" Firefox extension as its updated frequently and new sites are added often.

nice methods .

but i think in some sites

u have to wait till its start to buffer only not till it load it all

just when u see that they start buffering u can go click Tools>page info> and select the media u want Or right click on it and select copy file location

Can you confirm the methods in the first post no longer work?

Even if it's a 2005 thread, if the information holds valid, a n00b bump like that can help others spot this.

does you trying to say he is visually challenged and cant read couple of earlier post specially post number 50 - 60 ?
if same thing apply every where then we should edit/bump all oldest thread and update everything..

My intention is to tell the bumper to use "search function" and limits his emotion .

My intention is to tell the bumper to use "search function" and limits his emotion .I have long wondered about this but never took the time to do a search since it wasn't a pressing matter for me. This is an interesting thread and I wouldn't have noticed it if it wasn't bumped ... but than again, I'm just a n00b too ...
