Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: NO

Great idea, too bad it does not work.

Try it on this site and you will see that it does not work:
planetphotoshop.com/vanishing-point(dot)html

Can anyone suggest a utility that captures Flash videos from websites?

Save Your Money - low flyer

You can download flash videos from the web, using CosmoPod in Safari.

Cosmopod does not grab video from this site either. Videobox supports a wider array of sites then cosmopod and is usable by any browser (firefox, safari, camino etc.)

Ouch.

That's harsh my friend... i'm one of the developers at tastyapps.

I wasn't able to find any video on the site you referenced, i suspect it may be streaming or SWF content. Videobox can't grab that reliably yet.... but we are working on it. It *does* however grab video from 100's of other sites, youtube, revver, dailymotion, metacafe, google etc. etc.

Please please (i'm asking very cordially) understand that when you rate someone's product a "1" it hurts ( a lot ) especially when the product is not marketed to grab video from those types of sites...

And we are working on making Videobox support a wider array of formats and sites - but some sites, they just don't want people getting at their videos, so they make it very difficult.

We're doing our best my friend.
