Downloading Embedded Videos

Is there a way to download video files that have been embedded on a page? I know that it's possible to put them on another page by copy/pasting the HTML, but is there a way to actually get the .mp4, .mov, etc. files?

Hi  @tfarmer ‌ - This will likely depend on which embedded video you may be referring to.  Depending on browser/format, sometimes simply right-clicking the video will give browser-specific commands that may include downloading it.  Although it covers a slightly different subject, you  may want to check the discussion on this page:  https://community.canvaslms.com/message/52139-is-it-possible-to-download-a-media-submission   Truth be told, there are many browser extensions out there that can sometimes assist with the process.  (It must also be stated that downloading something that was not intended to could be a copyright issue, as well.)
