Firefox addons are broken. How do you capture Youtube videos?

[john70t]

With half the stuff out there being redacted or censored, is there a way to d/l vids?

The problem with the addons should be fixed by now (outdated certificate.) I use 1-click Downloader.

I use a commercial software product named "iTube Studio". It works by capturing the video memory on your PC and you can either grab the video by copy/paste the YouTube video or you can do it as a "record this area" so if the video is large in size that method works great.

If you capture a lot of videos you can use another software package named "AVS Studio Editor" which lets you put them together and generate a DVD or one long movie in any format you want, I make "MKV" movies which work great.

The certificate expiration was resolved - however trying to install or download addons from Mozilla is still resulting in problems (file is corrupt) for some.

go to about:config and set the xpinstall.signatures.required setting to "false"
I reinstalled my disabled adblocker pro and it works fine.
Holy crap - forgot how may damn ads there are with adblocker disabled!

Saw that too. Thx.
I'm now using Waterfox and that was already set to "false".

When I searched for various addons it consistently can't find any. Strange.

Before, in regular Firefox I was using ScreenCapture, NoScript, and a couple video downloaders that seemed to break or disappear regularly even without updating.
That made the internet to surf until it all got broken recently.
The Mozilla company seems to be going over the edge from within at this point.

Today, the Firefox addons page still appears to be broken: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/

Not sure what is going on....
