Actually, there is a much easier way, just go here: http://ustream.tv/helpcenter/howto and look for “How to Convert Recorded Video Files to Different File Types and How to Download Them”

@real

Did you try the steps in the article? At what point did the process break down?

The problem is the video I want to download does not have &flv= anywhere in the url

boo on this. It doesn’t have &flv in the url. The process breaks down in step #3. Very frusterating.

@Sarah

Apparently they have changed their methods a bit. I have updated the article to reflect the new method. Thanks!

Why would I want do download my own videos? I would have them already. The point is to be able to download ALL other videos.

Doesn’t work, and they’re full of ads anyway. Time to start watching another site.

This can’t be done. I have a video on Ustream and I cannot download it. It cannot be done. The video is instantly uploaded to the far reaches of the galaxy never again to return to earth. However, I do challenge anyone to actually successfully download my group, Bob Dee’s Cosmosis. Here’s the link: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/1574359
Prove to me that it actually exists! I’ll give anyone a free CD that can actually come up with the video.
Thanks,
bd

actually I did this about a half hour ago but youll need a sniffer of some sort like URL snooper. download and install this program and its WinPcap thing,(if you dont have it, if you have it then ship this step), then run url snooper, hit sniff network and then play the video (this was only tested with recorded shows) you should see a bunch of URLs come up, switch to multimedia urls from the drop down menu and try all the other ones until you see a link that starts with “HTTP://” and ends with “.FLV”. this should be the video you want. I am downloading a large FLV file as we speak so I dont know if its the right one but it should. this stream was 145 mins long and is 1 GB in size. copy the HTTP .flv link to the clipboard (right click on link in URL Snooper, click copy to clipboard)then open a new browser tab and paste the link there and hit Go or return. your browser if your using firefox it should ask what you want to do (open or Save file) choose Save file, give it a name and location on your HD and hit save if it asks you. after a couple of hours depending on your connection speed it will dl the flv file. open it in your favorite program for playing back FLVs. thats it your done. if you want to convert it then use your favorite converter program. let me know how this all works out for you.

@cd

your method with the URL snooper works great, I have just tried it and it downloads the videos directly from the ustream server address. This is fantastic, thanks for sharing your info.

Anyone that did not understand cd’s method can have a look at our blog soon where I will put up a detailed tutorial with images on how to download videos from ustream with the URL snooper.

Thanks cd and of course thanks goes to thinkingserious as trying to supply a working method.
