When the process bar on the main screen moves to the end, the download process will be finished and you can find the downloaded file in the folder you specified before. STEP 3: Click the play button of that video in the JW player on that page and wait until the video gets loaded completely. STEP 2: Navigate to your favorite streaming site from which you need to download any online video. STEP 1: Fire up the browser of your choice (Chrome or Firefox). Select Stream and the VLC video downloader will start downloading the video. Follow the below guide to start downloading online videos. Meanwhile, make sure the Active Transcoding option is enabled. Open the drop-down format menu and Select Video – H.264 + MP3 (MP4), which means that the output video will be saved in MP4 format with H.264 video codec and MP3 audio codec. Then, you will see a new interface, in which select Add > Browse to specify the output destination and file name. On the Stream output window, select Next. Click on the inverted-triangle button next to Play, select Stream. Only the HTML5 route seems to stream the videos, but I need it to stream the videos in the flash route too. Then, paste the URL into the “Please enter a network URL” box. I currently have JW Player setup so that its first option is HTML5, the fallback is FLV then fallback to that is Download. Open the web page of the video you want to download and copy the URL address of the video.

On the main screen, select Media > Open Network Stream…. After the installation, click the traffic cone icon on your desktop to open VLC media player.
