Anyway, I’ve found out that in VideoBot, new music videos in AOL that labeled Universal will be blocked by Akamai Ghost. The other so far didn’t. I’ve also found out that some new music videos didn’t showed up when clicked (like The Best Damn Thing, Avril Lavigne) so you must back to GAMV to download it.

I don’t know if this only happen because I’m not living in United States…

The mms link is going to show again under the flash video, and you will be able to copy it.

Just few hours from now, or maximum tomorrow.

You are welcome for any other requests.

I’ve used Replay Media Catcher (www.download.com/Replay-Media-Catcher/3000-13633_4-10644938.html) to capture flv video from embed video player like PayLowMusic’s player. The link is rtmp, not mms and it’s so far can only be downloaded using this software. The only lack is that the download speed too damn slow for me. From usually 30 KB/s in flashget, it became 6 KB/s only.

@PayLowMusic

I would love to see the MMS link!! VideoBot has lately only showed up “syntax error” message and newest AOL videos cannot be downloaded too. Please… I’ve been using Lyfox since April 2006 and these 2 months absolutely the longest stagnant I’ve ever had for downloading Yahoo! music videos.

If you want me to place the mms link, so you can copy it and download the video, I would do it.

I have made it in flash format, because it loads faster, and also because I have many visitors who are on Mac and Linux systems.

Anyway, you can also download Real player 11 for free, and you can easily download the music videos in flash format so easily.

Please, if you want me to place the MMS link, so you can download the video, let me know here.

We start off with a web-page URL such as this:

http://www.paylowmusic.com/musicvideos/player?videoid=44958946&artist=Avril%20Lavigne&video=Girlfriend%20(Fans%20Only%20Video)

Our next step is to retrieve the necessary Flash variables. To do this, go to File->View Source (or similar based on web-browser). Press Ctrl+F to bring up the Find dialog, and search for “object”. The next two lines should look something like this:

The relevant part of this is the value of the movie and flashVars parameters:

http://d.yimg.com/cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/fop/embedflv/swf/fop.swf
id=v44958946&eID=1301797&enableFullScreen=1&autoStart=1

The Flash variables have been URL-encoded so we’ll need to change the “&”s to “&”s.

id=v44958946&eID=1301797&enableFullScreen=1&autoStart=1

And now combine the two with a ‘?’:

http://d.yimg.com/cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/fop/embedflv/swf/fop.swf?id=v44958946&eID=1301797&enableFullScreen=1&autoStart=1

Point your browser there and you’ve got ad-free videos…one at a time.

To actually get a link to the video file itself you will need to Google “Flash decompiler” and find a decent one that will allow you to view the scripts. And you’ll need at least a basic understanding of scripting (preferably JavaScript) to be able to extract the filename.

The file will probably be in FLV format (it is becoming more common as a system-independent video format (being as it is FLash Video)) which you’ll probably need to convert to play anyway.

However, this is all speculative, and would vary from video to video. Also, if you find a decent free Flash decompiler, do let me know!

VideoBot is down because Yahoo! has changed it’s player, so the code does not work any more.

The only code that works is the one at Pay Low Music!

1. Go to (http://www.flip4mac.com/) and download the latest version of flip4mac.
2. Once installed, in addition to being able to play .wmv files on quicktime, Flip4Mac will give you the option of saving any video played in quicktime.
3. Go into Lyfox
4. Locate your song
5. Wait for the song to download itself completely, and then using the Dropdown Flip4mac menu option, select ‘Save as Quicktime Movie’
6. At this point, your file has been saved to your hard drive. Open the file via iTunes and voila! You have a decent quality music video located in your itunes playlists!

Ferny: Go ahead and delete this if you don’t want this known, but it is pretty handy!

Good luck everybody!

DVD rips arent avaiable for every artist, are they? Thats the point of using LyFox and GAMV

Your best bet would be to use a proxy. Also COMMENTS section is now available at the VideoBot site for questions or inquiry.
