How to download Google videos…

Ever wondered how you could download videos from Google Videos? Look no further.

Here’s an extension to Firefox that allows you to save the videos.

As you see, the only requirements are having a decente web browser :-)

    For the none decente web browser (IE), you just have to:

    1. Open the video.google.com
    2. Open the video you want and wait untill its full buffered
    3. Copy the FLV type file to other directory
    4. Open the file with FLVPlayer (www.http://www.flvplayer.com/)

    Done :o) No instalattion needed
