Neilp Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Hi Guys, My missus is teaching her class at school about the war and requires a video which is on a website. The website is blocked on the school network due to it having violence about the war on it etc. The video is here http://www.annefrank.org/en/Subsites/Home/ Is anybody able to download/rip the video from the website for me and email me it possibly? Tried doing the ctrl + u then ctrl +f trick to find the swf file but cant find a link which i can save. Cheers Neil + Nicole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentsmith350 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Take it the school blocks proxys ? could try running it through cheesecamera.com but putt HTTPS at the start rather than HTTP , we had a problem blocking the secure traffic so that may work for her too ?? I was in Anne Franks House last week , seen the Diary and walked through the Secret Annex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a shot tried a few things but the video seems to be imbedded somwhere else and linked to it. When you go through the webpage content theres no link which ends in .swf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightRacer Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 If you stick this in your browser http://www.annefrank.org/ImageVault/Ima ... ndler.aspx it should give you the option to download. its in FLV format which you can convert to your requirements. Not sure if you can put that straight into Powerpoint but if you need it converting to a format and struggling let me know I might be able to help!

mattbowey Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I have a link for some software that hsould do it but will have to send you that when i get home You could also try getting the Camtasia studio http://download.cnet.com/Camtasia-Studi ... 65109.html and just play the video full screen and record it like that, might work. just make sure you tell it to capture the audio too Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andlid Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Do you still need this? I have got this downloaded and converted in a mpg format, if you still need it pm me let me know if you need me to download it, would keep it in flash format though and just use a flashplayer. What did you use to get it down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vik54 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Usual Education IT dept over censorship It is also probably down to their basic capacity to stream video. It has just taken me six months of red tape and 'business cases' to get FB access for youth workers Tell Nic all she should have to do is log a call with IT support - most authorities simply require an email from your line manager saying 'please give so & so access to this address Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cragus Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 And that allows you to nab the video and change the format?! Dam you Macs! I swear mate. I started on iPhone, then iPad then macbook pro. I was hesitant to switch my laptop but now I would never go back. I have found a programme for every single need so far for free, it hooks up to any hardware effortlessly with no compatibility issues. It is computing heaven. Since sold the iPad as its a glorified iPhone which i had no use for since getting the macbook pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found a programme for every single need so far for free, it hooks up to any hardware effortlessly with no compatibility issues. It is computing heaven. Since sold the iPad as its a glorified iPhone which i had no use for since getting the macbook pro I must admit I am started to get tempted (I was very anti Mac), I just find it all very expensive and I am not used to paying for any of my software on Ubuntu. Main reason at home I use it is to keep my eye in as thats what all the servers use at work, also I dual boot Win7 for gaming. That web server is one of my own so it was really easy for me as well (not quite a point and click job tho as the server doesnt have a GUI), I just did a wget straight to it then did everything on there as I wanted the processing power for the convert then dropped the file into a folder which is open to the web, took less than 1min. I am really starting to like the Mac hardware and I have been looking at it, but my problem is I like to fiddle and I would end up jail breaking everything which kinda defeats the point! Thing is I work in IT so I love typing in stuff at the command line it makes me feel big and clever I do now appreciate that Mac's bring computers to the masses like never before. In the past if you converted videos you wore socks and sandles and had a beard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
