Hi fellow people! I want to download & save a huge set of small videos (20min each) for a swimming course I paid for and they don’t let me download , and this is driving me crazy.

The videos can be accessed via browser only, and I tried tubedowoader with no success (gives an error “empty keys” while attempting to download).

What should I try?

(Android is first choice, then Linux ofc)

It depends on how the video is embedded and which format it is.

  • You can try to open Page Info (CTRL+I) > Media tab and see if you can find the video there (Firefox).
  • Sometimes you can right click and open frame in new window, which then allows you to save it (you may need to enable dom. event. contextmenu in about:config if they block right click)
  • Get the VideoDownloadHelper addin (Firefox)

Yep. You might not even need an extension if it’s just a html5 video.
