Valuable information. Thanks for the sharing. I always use Acethinker Video Downloader to save online videos to my computer, works fairly well. It’s a free web-based application to download online videos, you don’t have to install anything. Share it here as an alternative to clipgrab.
Sounds neat, but I've been using Live Downloader. It detects media on the page you're browsing that it can download without having to copy the video link.
