Have you ever found interesting videos in youtube or metacafe and some time later they have been removed for unknown reasons. Yeah it's frustrating. How can we get them? There are few methods on how to retrieve the video but I will show you the easiest way to do that; Fast Video Download.
This is another useful Firefox extension to those who are making collection of the videos out of youtube or any other video sharing sites. Basically you need to install this plugin into the Firefox browser and after restarting Firefox, the plugin will be at the bottom left corner. Simply click at the Fast Video Download icon and a small window will popup asking you where to save the video file to.
You need to download and install FLV Player in order to play the video file (i.e. youtube_video.flv). Now you are ready to play the you favourite videos directly from you computer!
Notes: Fast Video Download can save embedded video files from following video-hosting servers:
Angry Alien, Anime Episodes, Anime Forever, Bad Jojo, Blip.TV, Bo-Funk, Bolt, Break.com, Current.TV, Daily Motion, eVideo Share, Google Video, Grinvi, iFilm, Libero.IT Video, My Space, Put File, Streetfire, Totally Crap, You Tube, V-Social and Vidiac.
Sometimes it might produce "no data" error, just put another try (click again the icon) and it should be working.
