[Resolved] Dailymotion videos download error

[tadams587]

I recently tried to use flashgot on Dailymotion as i usually do, but all I've been able to download are unplayable .flv files that are the size of a few kb. I've tried downloading from other websites and had no problem. i think dailymotion has changed their flash encoding or something. plz fix this.

URL where this occurs?

Django Django - Storm

Looks like they're segmenting their clips.
MediaInfo displays nothing relevant with the individual segments & they will not play.

Not sure if anything at all can be done (especially if the individual clips cannot be joined/played), but investigating for next release, thanks.

Don't know if it will always hold true, but ...

So if you s/sec\(.*\)// kind of thing.

But then it looks like some kind of "authorization" is expected, which I'm not sure where its getting it?

Code: Select all

?auth=1355167787-4098-oqouifl7-918211eb0c8c0898ede094008f54de7e

So you end up with something like:

In theory at least .

Please check latest development build 1.5.2rc1 (it works on therube's page, at least).

404.

Please retry now.

Not getting any Media icon in SeaMonkey.
Nor is Ctrl+F7 or the context menu giving anything.

Will try FF in a bit ...

In FF17 I did get an (2MB) ad, but not the clip or any clips at all.
If no ad, then I don't get any Media icon.

[Giorgio Maone]

Please check latest development build 1.5.2rc2, thanks.

[therube]

Looking good .
Everything I tried came down as expected, plays as expected.

(The only thing is that there is no way to capture a partial clip, &start= kind of thing, but suppose that has to do with their player & the way they offer up the clips.)

Sorry but not only I can't understand what you've done (I'm not an english speaker native) but reinstalling flashgot did'nt give me any success.
So can you explain me, step by step what to do when I want to download a video from Dailymotion which came in little pieces ?
