VideoCacheView 2.63 portable | 3 MB
After watching a video in a Web site,
you may want to save the video file into your local disk for playing it
offline in the future. If the video file is stored in your browser's
cache, this utility can help you to extract the video file from the
cache and save it for watching it in the future. It automatically scans
the entire cache of Internet Explorer and Mozilla-based Web browsers (Including Firefox)
and finds all video files that are currently stored in it. It allows
you to easily copy the cached video files into another folder for
playing/watching them in the future. If you have a movie player that is
configured to play flv files, it also allows you to play the video
directly from your browser's cache.
Using VideoCacheView
VideoCacheView
doesn't require any installation process or additional DLL files. In
order to start using it, simply run the executable file
(VideoCacheView.exe)
After
running VideoCacheView, it scan the cache folders of your Internet
Explorer and Mozilla browsers, as well as the temporary folder of
Windows. Wait 5 - 30 seconds until the scanning process is finished, and
the main window of VideoCacheView should display all the video files
that are currently in cache.
After
the video list is displayed, you can use one of the following options,
assuming that the video files are stored in the cache ('In Cache' =
Yes):
Play
Selected File: Allows you to play the video file directly from the
cache, assuming that you have a video player that is configured to play
.flv files.
Copy
Selected Files To: Allows to copy the video files from the cache into
another folder, so you will be able to play them in the future.
If
you have a video file that is not stored in the cache ('In Cache' =
No), you can use the 'Open Download URL In Browser' option (F8) in order
to download the video file. You can also use the 'Copy Download URLs'
option (Ctrl+U) to copy the download URLs to the clipboard, and then use
then in your browser or in other download software.
Be aware that some Web sites may not allow you to download a video file in this way.
Flash Video Files In Temporary Folder
Each
time that a Web browser plays a Flash video file, the .flv file is
saved into the temporary folder of Windows. Normally, you cannot copy
this temporary file to another folder, because the flash player locks
the file exclusively. Also the file is automatically deleted when you
close the Web browser.
VideoCacheView
displays the flash files in the temporary folder, and allows you to
copy them into another folder. VideoCacheView can handle temporary flash
files created by Internet Explorer, Mozilla/Firefox, Opera Web browser.
Be aware that you must wait until the browser finish to download them.
otherwise, the copied files will be corrupted.
Playing Video Files Directly From The Cache
Most Web sites today use Flash video files (.flv extension) for playing video inside the Web page.
VideoCacheView
doesn't provide a build-in video player, but if you already have a
video player that is configured to play .flv files, VideoCacheView will
be able to use it for playing the video files directly from the Web
browser's cache.
