Downloading Video from Blobs

[Peevert 936]

I'm seeing more and more video encased in an HTML "blob", which complicates downloading.  I'm curious as to what methods users have found for overcoming Blob issues. 

Thanks!

Can you give any link with such video for experiments?

Sure! Here's a random pee video from PornHub:

The actual video is located here:

Can't get it to download. 

Thanks!

Downloaded from the first link with 9xbuddy.com  - https://fotolub.com/3czXn

The second link doesn't work for me.

Try the 'Soul' browser. Depending on the device you are using it should work. It gives you a download button everytime there is a video. The video above worked fine and except for youtube i can download almost anything. Even vids from private messages etc..

You may also want to try Firefox with the Download VideoHelper add-on added. Start playing the video, then go to DVH and select the version/resolution you want to d/l. Good luck!

I highly recommend to use Internet Download Manager (IDM).  You may try 30-days free trial to understand that it's really "Must have".

And it has very affordable price. 😊

Oooops, looks like I'm dyslexic here: should be Video DownloadHelper. Sorry for the goof.
