[Harp-L] how to save a video on your computer
On a dial-up server, it can take a long time to DL a long video. Here's how
I save videos to my computer:
I first go to a video site like YouTube and click the video i want to see.
As it starts to load, the URL (address) appears in the browser's field. I
highlight the url, then copy it, using my right mouse. I no longer need the
YouTube site so I cancel out of it. I go to keepvid.com and, using my right
mouse, paste the url into the empty field in the green box, then hit the
download button to the right.
This places the url to a different box below. Then I click the "Download
Link" button. A box will pop up asking u if I want to open or save. I click
Save. In a new box that pops up, u must name it. Be sure to end your name
with the suffix ".flv" without the quotes. If u forget to do this, after u
download, it will not play. If I forget to use the .flv extension, I rename
it later by highlighting the file and using my right mouse.
Before any video will play, u need an FLV player, which is available for
free on Keepvid.com. U want the green button on the right, which near the top
of the site.
