Hello,

I'm trying to download a video from a site. Normally I would:

1) Let it play in a browser.
2) Inspect the element.
3) Go to the Network tab.
4) Filter only the media.
5) The .mp4 will show up
6) Download it...

For some reason, a couple of videos are not showing up, even though they are playing on the page...
I think they might have some JavaScript "stuff" going on...

What are my options at this point?

If nobody has an idea on how to fix this, is there a good screen recorder that will record long videos of almost an hour length?

Thanks
J
 
Open up your DevTools, switch to Network tab, filter for Media requests only. You will see a record of network activity including a media file in HTTP response. Copy that link then.

This will not always work though. Did you try IDM?

What's IDM?
 
I do too have that problem sometimea. What i do is to refresh both websites (where the video is posted and where i will download it). If i keep having the problem, i just record my screen using Camtasia. I totally recommend it to you.
 
You'll find a lot of programs for this in the search...
