just put on my long purple satin gloves to share with you all a bit of news.
The good news: I found out how to “download” ANY flash-based video from the net (e.g. from http://www.porn.com).
The bad news: This works only with Linux (Lucky us who use Linux anyway!) It definitely doesn't work on Windows computers. It may work in a similar way on Macs, but I don't know for sure as I have no access to one.
So here it is:
1) Let the browser play the whole video so that it can download the whole file in the background.
2) Open an xterm/konsole/gnome-terminal window.
3) Type the following:
Code: Select all
\ps x | grep -i flash | grep -v grep
Code: Select all
3926 ? Sl 2:48 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=plugin --plugin-path=/opt/google/chrome/libgcflashplayer.so --lang=en-GB
4) Type the following in your terminal window (replace “3926” by whatever number you identify):
Code: Select all
cd /proc/3926/fd ; ls -al | grep /tmp/
Code: Select all

5) Finished!
