    Hi, I would like to download videos from a certain site dedicated to music tutorials and I think they would be of benefit to the whole community. The problem is I've tried hundreds of programs and none works. The exception is Tube Digger only but it is for Windows, I am on Mac.

    Does someone knows alternative to - and as efficient as - Tube Digger that works on Mac?

    I have tried Downie, ITube, KeepVid, and all the browser extensions, nothing works.

    Thanks, but I have tried it. It says "Error - server forbidden".

    JDownloader downloads all the videos but not those on playlist, and there are many which are on playlist. In such cases it downloads only the teaser which is the video number one. The parts 1, 2, 3 etc., do not download.

    If everything else fails, you can always use Quicktime 8 (comes with MacOS) to do a screen capture.
    But that'll be realtime, and you won't be able to use the computer for other things when the tutorials run.

    I use Allavsoft to download videos and music files from youtube, vimeo, spotify, etc
    It has both Mac and Windows version.
    It is easy to use: Simply copy and paste the video/music url or playlist url to Allavsoft and click Download button.
    If the Download feature does not work, it also has the Record option.
