[Q] Android App to download Videos (not just You Tube)!! - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone please let me know if there is any app to download videos from any site (not just You Tube)?
I want to download videos (generally flash videos) from any website.
I searched on net and market but there are apps that download videos from You Tube but not from any other site.

i dont think thats possible on galaxy 3.. until full flash support is up..

Thanks for the reply rudolf895 but I think flash is only needed to play the videos not to download them. And also, if there are apps that download videos from You Tube, then I dont think there is any problem in coding an app that will support any website (not just You Tube)?
The app should be that: The User just need to enter the url from which you want to download the video and app should do the rest.
Please let me know your thoughs on this.

Use "Save Video plugin for Internet Explorer". It allows you convert videos during downloading. Just select Convert>Devices>Droid before download videos.

Every app I've tried that says that you just share the link with the app, and then it will download the video, fails to do so. When the link is shared, the app then reports that there is no video in the link. I'm at a loss. I don't wanna download on my laptop and trans over to droid device, that defeats the purpose of using the droid device. If i wanted to use the laptop all the time i wouldn't have got a tablet.

Use bytetornado, it's working!

I found this:
http://www.appszoom.com/android_applications/media_and_video/web-video-downloader_blftq.html
It's not free. But it does work about 50% of the time...

I'm sorry. I have to take back my last post. It turns out that web video downloader is no longer available on the play store. Meaning you'll have to get it elsewhere. And even then it still has a very low success rate. I'm currently trying to download and it keeps crashing. I'm disgusted. Why isn't there an android app similar to internet download manager for windows? Something that captures streaming video?

there are 2 that I have found

Not sure if you are still looking but there are 2 apps that I have found. One is dowloadr...not great and crashes a fair bit but could be the user not the program! the best one imo is video catcher....there is a free demo version with almost full capability or for a dollar you can upgrade and download many vids simultaniosly... basically with videocatcher if you can play it on your screen it can download it.... both in the store

firefox for android will do the work for you..
just add the flash video downloader add-on..

b
No app worked.
I used opera and adm download manager.
In opera, type about:cache and search for the right file by clicking on preview.
A dialogue box will allow you to open the link with adm.
Start the download with adm.
I had to search a bit for the video file because there are sometimes no extensions and you don't know which site is really hosting the video.
You may consider deleting previous caches in settings to avoid this problem.

Try TubeMate for YouTube videos.......It's against google policy to download videos and hence this app is no longer available on the market...
Click here to go to the app's homepage

Dude if you really have the video URL you can download it in any browser. The content you're after is typically one of several components of a web page; the URL you have is either for the surrounding web page, or perhaps for the swf player (the active element that chromes your video stream and provides limited interactivity with the Flash server).
What you actually need is an app to parse the obfuscated video URL from the page source--and to perform authentication if the video is hosted on an RTMP server. In other words, a YouTube downloader extension is not as easily repurposed as you imagine.
For the (GUI-dependent) majority, just using a downloader that can perform RTMP handshaking is non-trivial. That said, RTMPDump binaries have been compiled for Android--give it a try and let us know how it works out.

Tube Download removed from market?

Tube Download was an awesome app which could search youtube (the DESKTOP version, without anything missing like the stock youtube app is missing things), download video files, and strip the audio out. It was great for downloading songs from music videos.
The app is now gone from the market and the current version on my phone does not work to search. Anyone know what happened or know of an alternative?

Had the same issue with the search results coming up with nothing, now it seems to be working again.
Same here.I'm not getting any search results for YouTube. the other 2 work fine (dailymotion and Google vids) but when I d/l the vids and try to play they are just audio.
seems like Google (which owns youtube) is starting to filter out any youtube downloaders, free and paid programs. I have received 0 search results on youtube when i used tube downloader as well
Why don't you guys do a google search for tube downloader or go to a torrent site like www.picktorrent.com where i already found some app packs for android OS... just an ideia

Glad I downloaded tube droid before it was apparently ripped from the market. It downloads audio, video, etc.. I didn't know downloading YouTube videos was wrong though. It's obvious there are reasons though..
I have Dolphin Browser installed just to download YouTube videos. Works fine you just have to use the YouTube mobile site to search.
sorry. my bad

[Q] How do you download videos??

Not Youtube, but from a browser. On the Vibrant, when you chose a video from a website it gave you the option to stream it to your video player, or you could hit web and it would download it and store it on the SD card. With the G2X it only gives me the option to stream it to video player. I tried different browsers, the same thing happens with Dolphin, Opera comes closest but says cannot download unsupported file type. I know MP4 is a supported file type. Anyone found a solution for this?
I'm very interested myself.
Been trying to find the answer? U^
Yeah, no luck. Tried different browsers, looked all through settings it just doesn't work. Probably going to have to replace whatever apk controls it. Maybe the browser.

This sucks but no phone is perfect. Wondering... I might just switch phones with android all that matters is how the phone looks. Roms come and go...
Opera mini on 3g would give me the option to download but then says I don't heave enough memory.
Well you can download videos from the Youtube site just follow this guide ---> http://www.knowyourcell.com/lg/lg-g...ad_and_save_youtube_videos_on_the_lg_g2x.html
Or on Firefox mobile you can download the Video DownloadHelper add-on to download videos from any site.

No idea how to find that addon
video download helper is for the pc right? How does that help with the phone?
EDIT: So with firefox when you click on a flashplayer video it downloads it. Guess it's a start. Kind of sucks having to watch it on flashplayer on regular browser then go to firefox to download it but at least you can download.

If you are trying to save flash videos from youtube then look for an app called tubemate. It is no longer on the app store but you should be able to find it if you do a google search...

Last I checked it was still in Amazons app store. Has been a couple months though.
Dunno, I've had it for ages cos I dump all my Apps into a backup file on my PC then keep the ones I like...
I have apps from HTC, Samsung and Acer that I use on any and all my devices... Anything I'm not allowed to use are generally reliant on IMEI numbers and block use by other brands and sometimes models....
Check out FREEdi Youtube Downloader from amazon.
Tubemate is great for youtube vids, i use FVD for other sites.

anyone have the "Flash Video Browser" .apk??

hi,
I am trying to view hulu.com website and watch the free streaming media. I dont want the hulu plus stuff.
as i understand it.. "Flash Video Browser" can make it work.. by fooling the service that i am on a PC.
but this app is no longer on the market.
does anyone still have this apk? does it still work?
Just use any web browser that supports flash and has a desktop agent like Firefox or Naked browser. But I doubt if we can watch videos on Hulu.com for free.

I bought flash video browser when I rooted my nook tablet. It still works for free shows on Hulu. I don't know where to get the apk though. When the blank while screen pops up I press the back Burton and it plays the show I chose.

[Q] How do I download Youtube videos ?

I used to have the initial MX player and was able to use it alongside the Youtube downloader to download and then later watch Youtube videos when I had no signal (which happens alot)
Then they redid the MX player and suddenly I can't download anything to it, I can play the stuff I had previously downloaded fine; I can even delete stuff from that past list. But I can't add new stuff to it.
What am I doing wrong here? I find it hard to believe that they'd update the MX player and make it worse/uunusable. I've sent request after request to the app developers but have heard nothing back. If anyone has anyanswers ir suggestions I'd be really greatful
Thanks
I think downloading youtube videos is not enterily legal, many app got removed from google play because of that.
m.tubemate.net
Out of scope of this app IMHO, for download YT videos use this app: YouTube Downloader.
MX Player itself has nothing to do with downloading anything. MX merely just plays whatever is given to it. Downloading YouTube videos is of questionnable legality, so we'll not discuss it further here. If you have problems with whatever app is doing that, you should talk to them.
I use two workarounds. You may try one if you like.
1. Change youtube to youtubepaw.com, for example, https://www.youtubepaw.com/the-link-of-video.
2. Try using this free YouTube downloader. It's workable on both desktop and mobile.
