How to download streaming videos Solved/Closed

Question

Hi :)

I wanted to know if it’s possible, and if so, how we can download streaming videos available online on sites like Dailymotion or YouTube?

Are there other ways to obtain videos on the internet? Actually, what I'm looking for are cutscenes from video games like Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts so that I can watch them on players like Windows Media Player or Winamp.

There you go! Any other information on this subject is welcome :) As novices, we still have a lot to learn!!

Thanks for your answers ^^

Hi,
to simply get all the possible videos from the internet that are usually only available for viewing or "streaming":

first, install the latest version of Firefox here if you haven't already:
http://www.mozilla-europe.org/fr/products/firefox/

or update it.

next, install the "unplug" add-on here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2254

restart Firefox and if the installation was successful, a green fish icon should appear in the top right of the Firefox window.

go to the video page as if to view it, then click on the green fish icon in the top right of the Firefox window.
A window will then pop up showing the source of the currently viewed videos.
click on "save" below the video file names (.flv, .swf, .asx, .rm, .ra, etc....)

Hello there. The principle of streaming videos is that they can only be watched online. Websites like Dailymotion or YouTube offer videos that can be watched online without needing to download them: while you are watching a part of the video, the rest is loading, which greatly reduces waiting time. To watch game cinematics, you just need to type the title of the game in the search bar of the previously mentioned sites and select the one that corresponds to what you're looking for. Be careful, you can only watch these videos or save the link, but not download them on your PC, at least not from these sites. I hope my explanations will be helpful to you. Good luck!

Hello,

not so bad after all since I see you have already made the decision to use Firefox which is a VERY GOOD IDEA.
There are software programs to capture streaming.
But most of them are paid unless you go to forbidden sites.
Then you need to have the right codecs.

Hey, by the way, buddy, type Keep vids or keep vidz into Google, it's a site where you just drop the address, and then it gives you a link to download (format .flv) there you go!!

Hi.

For that, there's still the software Free FLV Converter, which, as its name suggests, is free. And it's not a trial version; it really is freeware. I'm not familiar with TubeHunter Ultra v2.0, but Free FLV Converter matches its description perfectly.
Actually, I was looking for a topic that would show me how to run this same software (FLV Converter) on Ubuntu ... because even with Wine I can't get it to work.

If you can help me, then thanks. If not, it's really not a big deal: there are so many software and websites that allow downloading streaming videos. Ultimately, it's just that it annoys me not to be able to run a program on Ubuntu: I had a virus a few days ago, and it's the only solution I've found ... while waiting for recovery CDs for Windows to be sent to me.

Hello internet users
To download streaming videos, you just need to access the TMP file to take the file after watching it on YouTube or any video or music streaming site. The problem is how to find it in the TMP file. In that case, you delete all temporary files (Tools>Internet Options>Delete Browsing History>Delete files, do this before starting the video). After watching it on the site (YouTube, Dailymotion....), you go to (Tools>Internet Options>Browsing history settings>View files) and there you will find plenty of files. The one that starts with GET VIDEO.......FLV is yours, you can watch it on VLC MEDIA PLAYER; otherwise, you can convert it using any converter. I recommend using Internet Video Converter, which is a very good converter. It's very simple to use after installing it, you open IVC, click on the TRANSCODER tab, and you just have to follow the steps
1> choose the video
2>> save as (if you can't find it, you will find it in the software folder in PROGRAM FILES)
3>>> validate the format
4>>>> conversion
and this way you would avoid video download sites or software like YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER that will put a lot of viruses and spyware on your back
Of course, you do all this if you're on IE; otherwise, if you're on FIREFOX, you just need to download DOWNLOADHELPER, which is a kind of patch for FIREFOX. After installing it and watching the entire video on the streaming site, you right-click on the page (not on the video) and go to downloadhelper, select the file ending with FLV, and click, and there you go, but it will be in FLV format, of course.
Good luck!

Hello, I found a .pdf that explains how to download streaming links and also re-encode them so that they can be played everywhere!! I tested it, and it works perfectly even for a novice like me lol. Here’s the link:

Alternatively, here’s the direct link to the site in question (which is quite interesting too):

Totally agree with bosskhalif, Real one player v10 or 11 I think, works great for downloading videos in Stream. The videos come out in .flv. I use it often and I haven't had any problems with it yet.
