Title: saving video url's
Post by: saint_hades on June 16, 2007, 12:33:23 PM
Hi.
I'm an animator (2d and trying to learn 3d but my computer is crap), and moolt.com says I should trace trailers and other thing's.
So a wanted to know if there is any way of saving url's because most trailer's are on window's media play (for example) but not to download(like with TV.com. I know how to get the url but not how to save the file it's self.
Thanks

Sometimes you can right click on the link and select "Save Target As..", and this will download the movie to your hard drive.

That's the first thing I did.
I just get the link to the site.
I can't import links to thing's like Adobe Premiere. Or other programmes.
But thank's for trying to help.

PS does any one know were you can download music videos.
Thank's.

you can download music videos with torrents or p2p (if you're willing to download such software), otherwise i just randomly search google, or go to www.ebaumsworld.com (http://www.ebaumsworld.com)

for downloading/''borrowing without permission'' videos from certain sites, i'vebeen able to use the cached files to get the videos, if the format won't work, a cache converter program might (i don't remember any but i'm sure you'll be able to google for one). otherwise... i don't know  ;D

all in all... google's pretty useful  :P

There is a program called URL Snooper that can show all media files that are streaming from online. But there is a bug in it that causes it to shut your computer down sometimes (it happened twice to me and then it stopped) and I really have no idea what causes it or how to stop it, it could all be random as far as I know. But anyway, after installing it, select the show only Media Files option thing (try the simplified view first and see if that works).
