When you have "url" in the example commands, it should be more specific, such as "http://www.example.com/directory/videos/flash" etc. or add a note outside the example saying to replace "url" with the desired address or whatever. Do you mean to replace "url" with an actual URL address or are we supposed to use some special syntax when referring to the URL or what? Make it more clear for the command-line inept.

I've added a link to a usage examples section, but yes it should just be the URL.

finally! i have been looking for this for 1 year! i don't want to use firefox :)

thanks. keep it updated ^^

Hello, I have Windows 7 64 bits. How can install this application... I have installed Perl64 with all modules (WWW::Mechanize (required) and XML::Simple (required for some sites). You can install these using ActivePerl?'s PPM tool. ) I have download 3 files in c:\flash\get-flash-videos after how make ?!?!? when i write in dos: ''perl c:/flash/get_flash_videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QS6GgPBig4'' C:\Perl64\bin>perl c:/flash/get_flash_videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QS6 GgPBig4 Can't locate Win32/API.pm in @INC (@INC contains: CODE(0x3f2e490) C:/Perl64/site /lib C:/Perl64/lib .) at C:/Perl64/site/lib/FlashVideo?/Utils.pm line 213.

@jper, i had the same problem on windows running activePerl v5.8.6

had to install the win32-API via activePerl ppm. 1. run ppm 2. "search win32-API" 3. "install 1" then it works

If you are all so clever, why dont you simply write a program that non-nerds can actually use - reading this is like reading Icelandic - backwards! We DONT want to become computer programmers and code writers - we simply want to record an f'ing program!

i agree, why not just put up what non techies can also use. whats the point if everyone cant use it?

as a oneliner for easy copy-pasting..

sudo apt-get install libwww-mechanize-perl libxml-simple-perl&&wget http://get-flash-videos.googlecode.com/files/get-flash-videos_1.23-1_all.deb&&sudo dpkg -i get-flash-videos_1.23-1_all.deb

Indeed. I'm having a headache of trying to figure out how to make it work. Some 3 hours already.

It's a Linux command-line tool for power users that just happens to support Windows and it works for me just as easily as other common Linux command-line tools like wget.

If you want a GUI, buy or torrent one of the tools that can't be embedded in scripts. If you're fine with the console but it's not working for you, all signs point to that being a problem with your computer, not the program.

Whatever you do, don't expect the author to completely change their target audience just because of you.

@jper, @yair99 and for all ppl that have problems with the "Can't locate Win32-API" errormessage: It worked for me to install the right Perl-distribution for my os. (x86 version worked)

So I compiled rtmpdump with MAKE=posix (using Ubuntu 10.04), copied it to /usr/local/bin (actually soft-linked), and I still can't get the RTMP stream I'm after.

Error message is: $ get_flash_videos rtmp://oxy.videolectures.net/video/2009/pascal2/ssll09_canberra/mares_ncl/ssll09_mares_ncl_01.flv Downloading rtmp://oxy.videolectures.net/video/2009/pascal2/ssll09_canberra/mares_ncl/ssll09_mares_ncl_01.flv Couldn't download 'rtmp://oxy.videolectures.net/video/2009/pascal2/ssll09_canberra/mares_ncl/ssll09_mares_ncl_01.flv': 501 Protocol scheme 'rtmp' is not supported Can't locate object method "host" via package "URI::foreign" at /usr/share/perl5/FlashVideo?/URLFinder.pm line 64.

How do I tell get_flash_videos that I have rtmp dump?

@stevenraypenny Blog is gone.

Firstly, if you have any problems with get_flash_videos, please look at the issues page to see if there any issues already reported. If not, log one. Google Code doesn't send us emails when people add comments to wiki pages, so we might not see comments for ages.

Secondly, get_flash_videos doesn't support being passed rtmp URLs. If you have an rtmp URL, it'll probably be easier to use rtmpdump directly, but depending on the site you may well have to provide auth tokens and other things as well.

get_flash_videos does support many rtmp downloads, but only for sites (or types of players like Brightcove) where we've added specific support. You should give get_flash_videos the URL to the web page where you would normally see the video. rtmpdump is great but it's not very easy to use, so using get_flash_videos is easier, as for supported sites it gets all the required parameters and runs rtmpdump for you.

As long as rtmpdump is in your PATH, get_flash_videos will find it.

If the site you want to download from isn't supported, raise an issue (if one doesn't exist already) and we might get round to adding support, or other people might provide a patch or plugin to make it work.

i found it easier to use strawberry perl

http://svnpenn.blogspot.com/2011/01/download-from-hulu-with-get-flash.html

how do i WATCH the videos and then DELETE them after get_flash_videos downloads them? where are the videos stored?

I don't know if the Issues is being checked, I'm sorry for think like that, but since new version of RTMPDump was released I thought this Project would be the light in the end of tunnel for Hulu Downloading.

But what is happening?

Hey guys,

This project is too valuable to stay on google code. Can we move this project over to github to facilitate external contributions?

It's been on github for ages: https://github.com/monsieurvideo/get-flash-videos
