But everyone Loves to download those Videos… There are many sites to download the videos from some of the famous video sharing sites like Keepvid.

But you can’t download every video with these services

When Embedding is disabled you can’t download it with the video downloading services.

Why to copy the url, go to a video downloading services and wait for the download to finish? We can do the same without downloading anything.


How to do so-

  • Get a good flv player like VLC.
  • Now open your Browser and want the video you want to download and wait until its completely Buffered.
  • Now close the browser. Now your video is stored right in your Hard Drive! Yes its just in the form of Cache. Its just about finding the right file.
  • Open your Browser’s cache Location.


    Cache Locations-

    Chrome-
    C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache

    Mozilla Firefox-
    C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[Profile Name]\Cache


    Internet Explorer-
    C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

    Opera -
    C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera\Opera\cache


    sorting

     

  • Right click and select  sort by –> Date modified or you can select the Size option also.

    Video files are usually bigger in size compared to those files in cache folder, so you can easily find the right file with the help of file size and date.

  • Now copy the file and pate it on Desktop.

  • The files would be without any extension, so rename and put .flv  at the end to make it a playable media.

    Now play the the video file with your media or flv player.

    Go and get the video file you want whether it is protected or it is on any website… The Web is yours… Smile with tongue out
