Pretty much the thread title. Wondering how you can download videos from Livecamrips. Have had some success with Video Download Helper but seems to depend on the video as some show as a file size and others as a runtime. Hoping someone can help with tips/how it can be done.
Cheers.
 
Probably not the answer you're looking for, but if the site it not letting you download the video, you could just play it and screen capture it using some software like OBS. The end result is basically the same, just requires a bit more time on your end. Hopefully someone will give you a better answer than this, but if not, it's something to consider (maybe you have already).
 
IDM (Internet Download Manager) is a one of the best tools for embedded video content - unfortunately it is not free but has lifetime licenses If you are searching something for free browser add-on Video Download Helper is also ok
 
I've been using this but it's a bit hit and miss. Will check out IDM and see if it's any better.
Unfortunately JDownloader doesn't seem to pick up the links for download.
Yeah, really hoping to avoid needing to screen capture a 5 hour video... Thanks for the suggestion though.
 
I posted similar last week on this thread: Thread. Midway on this page, vtuber replied with an option he found, but it requires command prompt and some code he posted, and I can't seem to figure out how to make it work. I hope we can find a solution soon, as this is a real bummer, will follow your thread. Does anyone know of other sites like livecamrips that streams the same shows?
 
Look to have got it working. Doesn't download quick (around 500 kb/s), but they appear to download. Guess you could possibly have a couple of command prompts open each downloading a file but haven't tested that as yet.
Install Firefox, the export cookies add-on mentioned in the other thread and Video Download Helper.
In Firefox goto whatismyuseragent or similar site to get the browser user-agent and make a copy of it somewhere.
Grab yt-dlp and put it in a folder somewhere.
Open Livecamrips site and click on the export cookies add-on and export cookies for livecamrips. Save the file in the same folder you put yt-dlp.
Find and start playing a video so that Video Download Helper picks up the video (the add-on icon turns coloured instead of grey).
Click on it, then click to the right of the download button and select Copy URL
Open a command prompt where you have yt-dlp and the cookie file.
The command you need to enter is:
yt-dlp --cookies "" --user-agent "" ""
 
This sounds so easy, but I have something wrong. I downloaded yt-dlp into a folder as you said, put the cookies add on for firefox in that same folder, got the video URL and copied and added it all. Looks sort of like this:
yt-dlp --cookies "" --user-agent "" ""
And I get an error:
yt-dlp' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Any advice?
