If the speed of the Internet does not allow you to play online video and audio without pauses for swapping, wait until the file is fully loaded into czsh-memory, and then copy it from there and play it from the hard disk of your computer without any problems. For example, take a look at how you can extract video files from the cache of popular browsers Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Opera.
Necessary
- - computer;
- - internet connection.
Instructions
Step 1
Play the entire file you want in Internet Explorer (IE 9 was used in the example). Then find "Internet Options" in the browser menu.
Step 2
Click in the window that appears in the "Browsing history" item, the "Options" button, and then the "Show files" button. In the opened Temporary Internet Files folder, find the file you are interested in (as a rule, multimedia files are located at the end of the list). For the convenience of searching, you can use the sorting of files by type.
Step 3
Copy the file you need to the clipboard, and then paste it into any directory you like. Sometimes, for subsequent playback, you need to rename the file with the desired extension.
Step 4
Launch the Mozilla Firefox browser (in the example, version 6 was used). For convenient viewing of the contents of the cache, there are special extensions (addons). For example, CacheViewer. You can download it and other add-ons from
Step 5
Download CasheViewer and then configure Browser Tools (Main Menu - Settings - Toolbar). Find the "View Cache" extension icon in the list that opens and drag it to any convenient browser panel. Click on the "Finish" button.
Step 6
Wait until the end of the playback of the file you want. Then click on the "View cache" button. The CacheViewer add-on allows you to quickly find the desired media among the many saved files using visual search tools.
Step 7
Right-click on the found file and select "Save As" from the menu.
Step 8
Specify a folder to save the file and give a name. Be sure to set the file extension according to its type, otherwise the media will not be able to play (in the example, videoplayback.htm has been renamed to fan.flv) If you installed the latest version of Mozilla for which an add-on has not yet been released, you will have to extract files from the cache in less in a convenient way.
Step 9
Type the command about: cache? Device = disk in the address bar of your browser. A window will open, as in the illustration.
Step 10
Carefully review the list of all saved files to find the one you want. Pay attention to the source, time, date and file size - unfortunately, automatic sorting is impossible in this case.
Step 11
Double click on the link with the file you need. On the page that opens, the path where you can find it on your computer's hard drive will be indicated. Paste this address into the address bar of Windows Explorer and copy the file to the folder you need. Do not forget to rename the file and set the appropriate extension after copying!
Step 12
Play the file in Opera browser. Type the command: opera: cache in the address bar. In the window that opens, select the type of files you need, and then click "Show all".
Step 13
Right click on the desired file. In the menu that appears, select "Save to download folder".
Step 14
Open your Opera downloads folder and rename the saved file with the appropriate extension. If you wish, transfer it to any other folder on your computer.
