Vimeo download not working

Postby tyby » Sat Mar 25, 2017 3:00 pm

Hi everyone,
Is Downloading from Vimeo supported ? If it is; I can't get it working on any Vimeo video. Just for example https://vimeo.com/202078733

System details -
Free Download Manager 5.1.26.5889 (aba1429) 64 bit
Mozilla Firefox 52.0.1 64 bit
Microsoft Windows 10 pro 64 bit

Please let me know if any other details is needed.

Regards
tyby

We've been able to download Vimeo videos by going to the frame source code.
Using Firefox on Windows 7 64-bit ... right-click on the video frame, select "This Frame ...", then "View Frame Source".
It returns a single line of code, listing the URLs (and tokens) for all the available video resolutions (1080p, 360p, 540p, 720p).
We usually select the 720p. The URL before the "720p" is the URL for that video resolution. Highlight the whole thing that's in quotes (from http: to tokens at the end). Control-C to copy.
Then Add in FDM 5. It fills in the URL for you. Select your download folder, and away you go.

As I have mentioned a few times in older messages (see search.php?keywords=iframe&terms=all&author=Usher&sc=1&sf=all&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=365&ch=-1&t=0&submit=Search ), there are more sites using similar or even more complicated solutions.
You should just stop ignoring my comments, please…

True, but not everyone knows that, so there's no harm in repeating some things ;)
