This seems to be an odd post here. But, I thought it would be helpful to all those Matlab users out there.
There are many reasons for the need to download a matlab webinar. Important reason is that, the video stops playing abruptly due to some reasons. So, here is the way to download a Matlab video. The video is a flash stream and so there is no way of downloading this under normal condition. I have used Chrome to demonstrate the method. Follow the series of steps.
1. Disable Flash Player Plugin in Google Chrome
> Here's the link to Plugin, chrome://plugins/
2. Open the Matlab Webinar you want to download or refresh the web page, if you have already opened it.
> The web page will show a message from 'Adobe Flash Player' like, "WE'RE SORRY! you need to update your Flash Player"
3. Open Developer Tools ( Ctrl + Shift + I ) and click 'Show drawer' icon (the first icon at the top right corner)
A drawer window opens at the bottom of the page with console, search, emulation and rendering options.
4. Select 'Emulation' tab. Check 'Spoof user agent' option found in the emulation tab. Select 'iPhone - iOS 7' option from the drop down list below 'Spoof user agent' option'. (You can select any of the iPad or iPhone options)

5. Reload the Matlab Webinar webpage. Play the video.
6. Open Developer Tools ( Ctrl + Shift + I ) and select the 'Network' tab
7. Copy link address (under the column, Name - Path) of the file, whose 'type' is 'video/mp4'.
8. Paste the link in a new tab and load it.
9. Right Click the Video and save it.

ReplyDeleteI found it even easier using the Video Downloader extension for Chrome after disabling Flash
After disabling plugins
ReplyDeletejust re-load the video, right click it -> save video as
Thanks a lot for the plugins trick
Thanks!
ReplyDeletethanks man :D
ReplyDeleteI think the simplied method could be like this:
ReplyDelete1) use chrome:/plugins and disable the flash player ( this will force the video to be played in an html5 video player)
2) Now Right-Click on the video and click "Save video as" and choose a location.
3) that's it. Enjoy
