But can it help me download videos from Microsoft Stream which is now in Sharepoint? Has been driving me nuts trying to get a new workable method for this.

[-] nicetriangle@kbin.social 7 points 10 months ago

If it’s via browser I would look into the Firefox plugin VideoDiwnloadHelper. I’m able to rip most browser streamed videos with it no problem.

VideoDownloadHelper

This + yt-dlp is what I'm using to fill my german Jellyfin library. Haven't found one site which blocks my downloads succesfully

[-] nicetriangle@kbin.social 5 points 10 months ago

JDownloader is also awesome. Should be in everyone’s toolkit.

[-] AceSLS@ani.social 1 points 10 months ago

I personally prefer uGet-gtk with aria2 backend. But yeah, having a good download manager is really nice

Make sure you have Octa set up right so you can log in with your organization's team space in Jira using two factor. That way when you set permissions to users and groups with the local Steam lobby your leaderboard doesn't get mixed up and you end up back in Confluence's Bronze league. Diamond subscribers can set their own epics with access to special story point loot boxes, but you have to watch for them on the Steam sale page. It's pretty simple, just read the process docs in Fandom.

Wut. Is this because I misspelled ‘Stream’ as ‘Steam’? 🤔 fixed… 😅

[-] junderwood@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Haaaaha, I thought you were goofin' so I joined in 🙃

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Haha 😂 Nooo. Microsoft has Stream used for videos. Often business has this. Someone kept trying to send the video for me to edit but it kept routing me to the Stream Sharepoint page. They weren’t as technically adept.. so I was investigating how to just pull a copy as a download to edit and send it back to them. Eventually I had them copy it to OneDrive and just share it there. I was surprised at how complicated it was to find the stream source and went down a rabbit hole of stuff to try, but, it’s not easy. So I wondered if Cobalt had such potential.

Yes thanks. It was my first option actually. After that started digging around in the html.

These names, bro. Straight out of the dictionary.

We desperately need a making service that doesn't just spit out a random word from the dictionary.

Could be worse, like Go, C, D, R, V for programming languages. At least they have the decency to use *lang in most places

[-] AceSLS@ani.social 8 points 10 months ago

Any reason to use this instead of good ol' yt-dlp?

[-] edu4rdshl@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Well, you can use it from a browser which makes it platform independent and without the need to install anything. Also it's more friendly for non-tech people.

[-] Lonewolfmcquade@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Just tried it with an Instagram story link and it didn't work. I love this idea though. I'll try again in a few months

Link is dead

Edit: it's my lists or zenarmor.

[-] ultra@feddit.ro 1 points 10 months ago

Same here. Might be due to DNS shenanigans

[-] cyberpunk007@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I do use all kinds of blockers on my firewall so that must be it.

[-] ultra@feddit.ro 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah, someone couldn't see my site (https://gra.phite.ro) because it's too new

Bookmarked!
