722227 2008-11-23 10:57:00 Greetings folks, and non -folks.

Someone who shall remain nameless, Though unknown to you all so it makes no difference...is wanting to save the videos from the following page.


www.gelessentialz.com

If someone/anyone could have a look and identify a direct link to the videos that would enable me to save them I would be forever in your debt.

Best I could come up with was

www.mydeo.com

But that just opens it within media player, and if I try and download that url I end up with a videodownload.asp file which is good for less then not much.

www.motionbox.com
Link above was ripped out of the code on the website you linked to.
By the look of it, it is a swf file, hth.

722230 2008-11-24 08:39:00 I'm using Firefox with scriptblock. In my case, scriptblock always asks for permission/confirmation when I click a flashplayer video.

First open the page with the video on it. e.g www.gelessentialz.citymax.com

You should get the script block window where the video is.

Click it once. Where it asks for the confirmation, copy and paste the link into a new tab/window. Open it. It should go into a new script block window.

Click it/allow it. The video should now play normally.

Now, in the address bar, type in about:cache

Click on Disk Cache

Look / search for the movie link to the video.
e.g about:cache-entry?client=HTTP&sb=1&key=http://www.motionbox.com/flash/hdremoteplayer.swf?v=1226961163&video=http%3A%2F%2Fvideo.motionbox.com%2Fencodings %2F11062406%2F94741079d140654a.mp4

Click it. It should now go into details about the link. Copy that link and paste it into your favourite download manager.
e.g video.motionbox.com

It should then download.

This works for the mp4 video I'm not sure about videos based on WMP or .FLV though.

722231 2008-11-24 08:53:00 Sorry, its the streaming windows media, There is four of them open on the page as soon as you open it, and they all try and stream in at the same time.

Script block only gave me the asp link as I pasted into the first post.

722232 2008-11-24 09:38:00 Try This here (www.sothinkmedia.com) its a trial but does appear to download them, tried one before that was linked and it was a 64Mb file, as You can see (www.imagef1.net.nz) they all want to come through, simply hit the download.
Heres One playing in VLC (www.imagef1.net.nz).

Edited: if you get it, go into the options / Video Capture and select .swf in the " Monitor the following types"

The question I ask is WHAT does Metla want with painted / Glittered finger and Toe nails :illogical - is there a " different" side to Metla that we don't know about :p:lol:

722233 2008-11-24 09:45:00 I'm so large there are many sides of me you don't want to know about.

Hell, I'd need a couple of mirrors to see them.
