Testing such links with VLC I notice that in some cases the player cannot play them or even crashes. Open VLC, Ctrl-N and then paste and open the URL. (The download option is there of course, but that's another issue.) The addon for Firefox - that I mentioned in my answer there, just install the addon, play the stream, the DownloadHelper button should start rolling, click the drop-down menu, then put the mouse over the title of the video, and then choose 'Copy URL'. VLC should start playing the video stream. Right-click the button, Available formats, and left-click the video. playing the video in Firefox, a Flashgot button should appear (add that to the toolbar or the status bar).FlashGot options, FlashGot tab, choose VLC.add VLC to Flashgot list: FlashGot options, General tab, Add, give a name 'VLC', - then go to the VLC executable and select it.But it does not work with all streams, and neither does the Firebug addon for Firefox, as far as I can tell.) Maybe the more convenient solution is using VLC along the Firefox FlashGot addon The most voted one, which is similar to the one under here already mentioned, is good because it involves using just the Chrome browser.
(The selected answer there is by no means the best. To find that URL, the other answer provides a solution, which appears along others as answers to a similar question here. When there is a link that can be clicked and that goes directly to the video stream, like in Youtube, I prefer something like the Openwith addon (see below). I prefer the solutions that involve the use of Firefox addons that normally direct an URL to a download manager or to another browser but that can be set to select VLC instead. As stated in another answer, VLC will play the URL stream behind an embedded video.
