Backing up GameTrailers interviews

[Glowsquid]

About a month ago, I created a Mariowiki youtube account to dupe videos of hard-to-find Mario arcade games.

I didn't expect to do anything more with that account until a long while, but as it turns out, long-time website Gamestrailers suddenly and unexpectedly announced it would shut down as of today. The site has a bunch of Mario-related interviews, not all of which have been reuploaded elsewhere, so for the sake of a future wiki project, I'd like to back them up.

I tried a bunch of flash video downloaders extensions for Firefox and Chrome, but they either don't detect the video or just download the ad. Does anyone know of a ripper that works with the site?

... or is anyone willing to do it themselves. that works too.

Video interviews:

http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/view/gametrailers-com/96733-25th-Anniversary-Miyamoto-Interview-Vol-II and http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/view/gametrailers-com/102675-25th-Anniversary-Miyamoto-Interview-Vol-I <--- both duped on youtube, would still be good to have them just in case

http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/view/gametrailers-com/99744-E3-2010-Reviving-DKC-Interview <---Not on Youtube

http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/view/gametrailers-com/106595-Nintendo-Media-Summit-Interview <---Super Mario Galaxy 2 media summit interview


If you've found any more videos that are not listed in the OP, please post.

i've found a way to dl the videos and I'm upload the DKC Returns and 25th Anniversary videos to the youtube account right now. Didn't bother with the SMG 2 one since it's pr fluff with no exclusive information.

if you still want this stuff on your hard drive, here's how:

[quote author=Uhyve]If you're on Chrome.

1. Go to Options thingy at the top right of Chrome.
2. Go to More Tools -> Developer Tools.
3. Click Sources tab.
4. Find embed.gametrailers.com, expand embed, double click <long number>autoplay=1
5. Scroll down to media {
6. Find the version of the video with the highest bitrate and delete all the crap after the question mark.
7. You should be left with something like:
