All-round Flash downloader for Chrome?
I really like FlashGot on Firefox. Do download HTML5. However I am not willing to install Flash system-wide. So it's like Catch 22? As the FlashGot name implies.
I have found only partial solutions like http://en.savefrom.net/ and the various extensions in the Chrome web store but the whole selection of Chrome extensions have a junk feel to. I don't know.
Task: I just want to be able to download the 5 minute samples on audible.com . On a machine where Flash is installed it works like charm via FlashGot. They are plain MP3s, by the way.
What's the solution? I was unable to locate the one needed for the job in the Chrome store.
Should have posted this in the security thread? Hello forum!
I also Googled to something similar but could not find.

FlashGot doesn't install nor depends on Adobe Flash.

Not sure if I understand you correctly, but here is another one:
http://kimgarst.com/twitter-muscle/
"Error loading player: No playable sources found"
This is obviously Flash. Downloads via Chrome when Flash is not installed system-wide.

What is your view on the original issue? It's still interesting, though. Thanks.

Re: All-round Flash downloader for Chrome?
I don't follow you. FlashGot has nothing to do with loading a player in your browser. It's just about downloading the media files. Which is unrelated to the presence of Flash (which could play those files) on your system.

Re: All-round Flash downloader for Chrome?
Then maybe it's not a FlashGot issue but here is the question:
What is the simplest way to download the above video ( http://kimgarst.com/twitter-muscle/ ) with or without Firefox or FlashGot; the easiest way if I do not have Adobe Flash installed on my system; step by step? As you would explain it to a non-techie. (With Flash installed it is just a single click on Firefox - default downloader)
OK, maybe it's not a FlashGot issue then, but somewhere somehow I have to ask; right?

How does that work?
Is Chrome's built-in Flash also disabled?
> with FlashGot
When the clip starts to play, FlashGot Media detects the clip, click the icon & it will download.
> without FlashGot
View the page source.
Search for "flv" or "mp4" or ?
You will find a link for: https://s3.amazonaws.com/TwitterMuscle/ ... sVideo.flv
That happens to be the wanted link & happens to be directly downloadable.
> without Flash
Try the without FlashGot method & see if that works.

I understand that you may have achieved what I wanted to achieve; though I do not get the steps, step by step, how I can achieve this as well.
My setup: I have stock Chrome browser with Flash enabled (and no other alterations) and stock Firefox browser with the FlashGot add-on (and no other alterations) and no system-wide Flash.
Thank you.

Re: All-round Flash downloader for Chrome?
To update this:
I need ANY downloader for Chrome (Flash or no Flash; it doesn't matter) more similar to FlashGot in Firefox.
The main requirement is, if I need to log in to a membership site, I will be able to download the media when logged in.
en.savefrom.net is OK for most cases (such as YouTube), however it does not do the trick when I need to log in. Any tips?

Don't know why you're getting a "404-like image"?

Maybe cookie issue or something like that?
FlashGot sees the clip fine & downloads it fine?
