How do you download from Hotmovies?

Post by kcavazo »

Lately i have been downloading stuff with flv downloader extension on chrome (which has proven to be very useful). I bought a certain movie from Hotmovies, but I cannot seem to download the streaming movie, that thing doesnt work on this.... I tried VLC, but yet no good results. Is there any way I can have that movie in my computer?

Tried w/ an older movie just published again on HotMovies.
Did however stream, not buy.

Also tried FireFox addon DownloadHelper, similar as below.

Is FLV downloader also getting you this whole host of small files?
(Like all -well- smaller than 1MB?

You see, when i used flv downloader, the program could not detect any stream to catch. The other way to play it is with the direct stream into your PC, vlc precisely since I have it installed.... Yet I don't know how to rip it. Last thing to do is to record it from the screen but that seems to take a long time with uninterrupted internet speed
