saving videos from mtv

[erilyn]

Anyone got a way to save videos from mtv.com? I used to be able to, but that program doesn't work anymore.

There's a Firefox addon called Flash Video Downloader (I think) but I'm not sure if it works on mtv.com specifically. There's also one called Easy YouTube Downloader (I think) but I'm not sure if it works on other sites.

MTV is tricksy and most download programs (like the FF plugin that I use for youtube and some other sites) don't work on their videos.

No, and it torments me. >:(

Seriously. Ooh, but let me know if that MTV Grabber thing works?

IT WORKS \o/

There's that MTV Grabber tool... is that the one you've been using this far?

No, I saw that on google searches, but the sites sharing it aren't ones I was familiar with/trust, so I didn't know whether to risk downloading it. Have you used it?

[adelate]

I have, and it's worked beautifully for me. The only time I ever had problems with it was when I was running Gizmo Project at the same time.

IT WORKS, THANK YOU! And on videos I'd never seen because MTV would give me an unavailable message (finale of Idol in 60 Seconds) but it downloaded them anyway \o/

Yaaaaaaay! I'm glad I could help :D
