Rolandson Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 sadly no. What about ickonic videos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metak88 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 38 minutes ago, Rolandson said: sadly no. Why not? You should be able to download the stream with browser extension like Video DownloadHelper. Start playing the video and choose the video quality and then press in the extension drop-down menu to save the stream. It's a m3u8 playlist with .ts chunks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to video page and DownloadHelper will detect available video resolutions, click on one and it will download. In this example I already choose the lowest 240p resolution because of the limited internet connection. You can see it in that "1 Running". The end result is download video: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can download it but can't open this video Looks like iconic is a bit different and uses azure player to stream? You can download it with youtube-dl. You're running Mint so it should be in the repos to install. When the video starts playing press pause, right-click on the video, choose "Inspect Element" and then "Network" tab. There you'll see the url which looks like this: https://ickonicms-ukso1.streaming.media.azure.net/0c6df35e-d375-43bd-9048-8cf1b42c9f20/The-Answer-Live-Stream-Teaser-Re.ism/QualityLevels(129000)/Fragments(aac_und_2_129_2_1=300800000,format=mpd-time-csf) Copy it.

Could it be because im using windows 7 ? Please be more specific. Which site/video, browser, etc. Is this with DownloadHelper addon and ickonic website? If it is then that's also what I get and why I had to use youtube-dl to download from ickonic. As for londonreal, I'm not certain but I think they stream videos via different providers so it may vary from video to video.

Damian Smith Posted September 13, 2020 Author Share Posted September 13, 2020 It's on london real. I tried it on both google chrome and firefox with with downloaderhelper both with and without the companion app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's something controversial then they'll put in on their 'freedomplatform' and you can easily download the video with DownloadHelper. For other topics they just embed the videos from their youtube channel. Youtube-dl is an excellent tool to download videos. Post the link to the video you want to download so I can check it out.

Rolandson Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 it is saving the video on home. sadly there is not enough space on it. How can i change it where it should download the video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolandson Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 or is it easier on widows. I downloaded the youtube dl but it won't open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metak88 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I haven't used windows in years... to me linux is so much easier. Download youtube-dl for windows and save it to the folder where you'll download videos. https://yt-dl.org/latest/youtube-dl.exe When you launch Command Prompt change to where you want it to save the videos. Then type/run ".\youtube-dl.exe" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
