I got some courses on zenva and gamedev.tv thru a humble bundle some time back and would like to store the videos from these courses locally. "Save video as" is greyed out, but is there a common technique to download such content despite this?

Not the most ideal link, but this page describes how to find all media that a webpage loaded into your browser in Firefox. All browsers should be able to do this.

This will virtually always work for images, and will sometimes work for videos. This way, you don't have to deal with any external extensions, programs, or downloaders (which can be sketchy).

If it doesn't work, you could try DownloadThemAll. It's a browser extension that might be able to get some of the hidden stuff that your browser can't extract through the normal method.

If that also doesn't work, go with whatever any other comments suggested, but be safe! Lol
