    Is there anyway anyone can help me get this video? http://video.reeltalktv.com/player/?id=192582

    I've tried to use the different methods described here but they just confuse me, I'm afraid.

    Thanks.

    ETA: Never mind. I got it. Thanks anyway!

    Hi, I'm in need of some help! I'm trying to copy an embedded video from Jibjab.com. I was trying to follow your directions that were posted, but i had a problem right from the get go. When i right-clicked and got "page info" and looked in the media section, there are no "embedded" listed to copy to my desktop and to proceed any further. Can someone help with the steps for this particular site. Thanks so much for your time,

    Well, hello guys ;-)

    If no one recognizes the name, it's alright. It's been a year since I've logged in to Afterdawn (exactly a year, strangely enough...I did not intend to do this) and almost 14 months since I opened this thread. Since the last guide I wrote for this thread, I see it has expanded a great deal beyond my initial intentions for it...several people including adriftr and jondavis (and others) have certainly helped to continue the "legacy" of helping people out with video download. I was incredibly surprised to find this thread still completely active, with both questions and answers (although, to be fair, not as many answers as questions anymore) after a year of my absence.

    I apologize for failing to maintain it on my own, but the trials of school and all kinds of other time-consuming tasks did not permit me the time to continue investigating and posting guides as I did before. Strange words for an 11-th grader, I guess, but whatever. Unfortunately, I have never since been able to devote the time and effort necessary to doing this kind of work for the community, and I apologize for that. Since my taking leave from the site, I have received many, many private messages asking for video help, and I again apologize for being unable to help in most cases. To anyone else who would PM me for help, I recommend that you send your requests to more recently active users, including the two I named above. In addition, this thread remains a viable resource for anyone needing a bit of help, as well as a good source of volunteer potential for anyone willing to help out others. I cannot say that I will be able to write anymore (although, fairly, everyone has probably found that out for themselves over the past YEAR ;-), but the generous and knowledgeable volunteers here in the Afterdawn community certainly will.

    I know this post has perhaps been a bit off-topic...actually, looking back, it has nothing to do with the thread at all. I understand that the hard-working mods here at AD will be sure to correct this soon ;-), but understand that I leave this post as a commentary, or a compliment, on the work of everyone who has continued to maintain the service offered in this thread. It has expanded far past my name or my initial expectations, even without my own work, and appears (to me, at least) to be a true example of how amateur volunteers in a community such as this can perform appreciable and commendable work, though they receive nothing but contextual praise in return.

    And so, I leave you, perhaps for another year. ;-) My thanks to everyone who helps out here, and everyone who inspires them to. Perhaps I'll start writing again once I'm in college and have more time on my hands. If not, there are plenty of others here, many who are more skilled than I am at this, who I'm sure will cover for me.

    Can you help me out. I want to download an swf file but I can not find the location of it.

    The url is http://www.schooltv.nl/beeldbank/clip/20021104_ademhaling03
    The movie is he one on the left with the text Van zuurstof naar koolzuurgas.

    I know it is hidden somewhere in the java script but I'm a looser within java. Can you help me out?

    Hello Folks, I'm new to the group and I was wondering if someone could help me out. I'm in real need of a Flash video of the following link.

    http://www.myfoxny.com/myfox/pages/...ale=EN-US&layoutCode=VSTY&pageId=1.1.1&sflg=1

    I've tried several times trying to download this .swf file without success. Could someone help me? I work for a sanitation company called Ecolab and I was wanting this report to show my hotel customers the cleanliness of hotel rooms. If someone could tell me how I could dload this video it would be much appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Hi fellows,

    I want to d/l videos now and then from this site-
    http://msnvideo.msn.co.il/video/

    I tried some techniques written in this thread, but nothing worked for me!

    I'll be very glad to hear if someone knows how to d/l videos from this site.
    Youtube is too easy, but this one seems to me to be tough :( Or maybe it's just me...

    Hoping someone can help me out here...

    I'm trying to get the Weeds episodes, found at showcase.ca/weeds
    It's driving me nuts I can't get to them!
    Here's the .swf...

    http://aac.a.mms.mavenapps.net/mms/...howcaseweeds/microNoTab/client/microNoTab.swf

    Forgive me I can't remember all the steps I took to find this, but here's a link to the .flv, (random episode) it's RTMP...

    rtmp://cp41523.edgefcs.net/ondemand/flash/Alliance_Atlantis/578/363/Showcase_Weeds_Ep3013_pt1.flv

    Anything I can do with this? I tried Replay AV 8, but no go...
    Thanks for any help

    Here's what I did, I found this using Replay AV...

    http://release.theplatform.com/content.select?pid=lCg0gVXcUhYsai7Qcehk6V-X6AT1vZLs

    I entered that into my browser, gave me an error...
    "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."

    It then displayed the rtmp address above...hope that helps

    Hi CiDaemon!

    I've been trying to figure out how to download this video for the past week and for the light of me, I can't. I've been trying to find the link but it only gives me the flash player. I used to have software that could download videos from here, but my computer crashed and I wasn't able to get the program back. Could you help me please?

    Great info. There are still some files I can't seem to get open, but I've learned a lot from this post.
