	BlackChampagne -- no longer new; improvement also in question.: Tube Raider Wednesday, April 25, 2007 Tube Raider I've been using Firefox and You Tube for months, but until recently I hadn't bothered to combine those tools to begin happily Borging copyrighted material. I don't know what specifically spurred me, but I got a Firefox extension that enabled one click downloading of embedded flash movies, and I've since snapped up a good 50 or so music videos from You Tube. I don't really watch them, I just use them for the music as they play in the background while I'm working on other things. It's not much different than just keeping one of my tabs open to YouTube.com, but I don't have to wait for videos to load, or be inconvenienced by occasional YouTube downtimes or videos being deleted for copyright infringement. If you want to play along and you're using Firefox, just go to Tools > Extensions (or Alt T E) and then click the link for "Get More Extensions." The Mozilla site has tons, and along with the highly-recommended AdBlock Plus you can find lots of others, and a quick search for You Tube will find you any number that let you seamlessly steal Flash and other embedded file types. You might need a flash player too, and I got a crappy freeware one called FLV Player from Downloads.com, since the Adobe/Macromedia player wouldn't properly install on my machine (It kept saying I needed more free disk space and that I should clear 5 meg. I have over 80meg free.) The player works, but it's not very good; I can't cue multiple files to play, and it doesn't allow FF or RW options. At some point I'll care enough to get a file converter and turn the .flv files into mp3s so I can just stack them up in WinAmp along with the rest of my music. Whether this is easier than hunting up some file sharing forums/IRC channels and getting bit torrents for the actual HQ videos and mp3s is open to debate. Labels: firefox, music, you tube Posted by: Flux # 3:55 AM Comments: I do the same thing with Firefox... its tops! Although some sites won't let you download (eg Break.com) because the only FLV link it can find is the flash player itself) Anyway, to convert to other formats, try using a program called "SUPER". Its quite good, primarily does video conversion. http://www.tubefetch.com/downloads/SUPERsetup.exe (about 20mb?) ciao from longtime reader (good ole D2), Pete #: 2:47 AM posted by Anonymous Post a Comment << Home Archives May 2005 June 2005 July 2005 August 2005 September 2005 October 2005 November 2005 December 2005 January 2006 February 2006 March 2006 April 2006 May 2006 June 2006 July 2006 August 2006 September 2006 October 2006 November 2006 December 2006 January 2007 February 2007 March 2007 April 2007 May 2007 June 2007 July 2007 August 2007 September 2007 October 2007 November 2007 December 2007 January 2008 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 September 2008 October 2008 November 2008 December 2008 January 2009 February 2009 March 2009 April 2009 May 2009 June 2009 July 2009 August 2009 September 2009 October 2009 November 2012
