How to download Flash Movies from a site! Interesting read!
I would like your assistance with this. I'm a member of a couple of "adult" sites..LOL..and they recently changed their formats of movies from where you could download it as .wmv files to some new flash based movie where you have to be on the internet to view it. Now this presents problems in a few ways.
If i'm not near an internet connection, i can't view it. Hence i like the old way that i can download it and view it at my leisure. Secondly, now with the new flash based movies, even if i have a stellar internet connection, it doesn't give you the option to download the movie clip.
now i read up on the apple forums on how to download flash movies using safari by going to the activity menu and looking for the .flv file. I've also tried CosmoPad and it doesn't work. Well it gets more complicated. It seems now that they have embedded it or used some kind of thing where you can't find the .flv file or its embedded in something else where you can't download it.
I've posted what I see in the Activity window when I try to find the .flv file once the scene has been played:

Well this is what is there and u can see there is no large file with the movie on it. I think with the DRM its embedded in something.
Am I out of luck here? LOL I know there has to be a way to get that movie file.
Is there a site I can go to that might help me IF no one here can offer suggestions?
Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
