Glootube
is very easy to use, basically you add a video location in the donload
list, and click on download.
How to add video files:
-
You can (of course) copy and paste your links
but
you could also...
- Add the current location of the
built-in browser by clicking this button:
The link
will be added only if glootube can handle a link extraction on this webpage.
-
Or you can use the right click custom menu, while
your mouse is over a link that can handle glootube:
or while
you are over a picture with a link that can handle glootube (href +img):
But
sometimes, you are on link or on a picture that can't handle the
software:
Usually
it happens when the webpage uses javascript for redirections (there is no
href tag here), but it is of course still possible to add this kind of
link by going on the webpage directly.
-
Also there is a third way to add links that can work: You can
use the right click menu
while you are on a embed movie, and in this case the menu will
popup itself. But it is not because it pops that you can add something.
However
this work not very often because the webpage has to use a generic way
to embed the video, so this way is usually not very good. Usually on
embeded content, the right menu auto-popup (since the menu of flash video
file is specific this feature is nearly mandatory), and you can click on download (or elsewhere if you don't
want to download the video). This feature may work on some myspace users pages with
youtube embed video (but not for all videos), and on some other page,
but it works only 20% ot the time. The
main problem here is to find a generic way to extract the video string.
Usually with embeded content on external website (like with youtube),
the best way is to find and add the youtube url by watching the source
code of the page. The software is still able to manage the download
even if it is not able to extract embeded videos very well on
external website.
When
you add a video, the download should start if you have checked this box:
in
the other case use the download button will start eh download.
The
first link is used, downloaded then removed, and the next first link is
downloaded too.
Set
adult cookie is used for adult video on youtube:
-
within the software, go to a webpage with adult content. -
click that you are adult (if you are) on the adult
warning. -
then click on set cookie.
Without
this action you can't download adult content.
