831626 2009-11-20 03:36:00 I use the DownloadHelper plugin in Firefox to save TVNZ on demand files just fine, but this does not work with TV3 files.

I tried it, and all it offers is the ad file. Maybe it's to do with TVNZ ondemand's new design?

NZ shows typically aren't protected. International ones are (similar to the TV3 eRTSP setup).

The new design at TVNZ On Demand seems to have changed something. A download worked fine at the beginning of the week, using Greasemonkey and a script, received the expected .flv files, but it doesn't want to work now.

831631 2009-11-21 22:31:00 I presume you're talking about this script (userscripts.org). I've switched to using DownloadHelper now. pcuser42 (130)
831632 2009-11-22 20:26:00 I've used Replay Media Capture previously to record off the TV3 site. I don't know if it still works though. autechre (266)

Yes, that one. Will DownloadHelper work on TVNZ OnDemand now though?

831634 2009-11-23 05:38:00 It does, though not international shows (which that script didn't do either). pcuser42 (130)
