Re: My Challenge: Saving This Embedded Flash Video

Thanks for the replies!

Yes, I tried using Firefox in Bootcamp with several different media download-type extensions and no joy.

Real Player didn't work either.

These videos are being hosted on Brightcove.TV, which apparently is extraordinarily more difficult to "get" than those from other sources (YouTube, etc.).

I think the only way to do it is to use a screen capture app such as Snapz Pro or ScreenFlow.

Strange. I tried my old "standby", which is viewing the Activity Window in Safari. Usually you can double-click the biggest file and it will download. It looks like they're blocking HTTP requests. I'd use a network monitor, or the LiveHTTPHeaders extension in Firefox to find out how they're fetching those pages. Looks like a simple HTTP GET is being block.

I tried LiveHTTPHeaders extension in Firefox and got nothing useful.

Yeah, I tried it too. I wonder if they're doing a flash file that fetches a flash file that fetches the video? I can direct link to the flash video, but it still shows in their player.
