Hello dilemasong,
Thanks for your comment and your question … and I’m happy to hear that you want to use the videos in your classroom. Yes, it should be easier to download them. Most of my recent videos are stored on blip.tv and can be downloaded from there. Here’s how to do it.
1. Go to our video page, and click on the link “watch video at blip.tv” under the video that you want to download.
2. On the video page at the blip.tv website, click the ‘Share’ button.
3. Click the ‘Permalinks’ tab.
4. You’ll see that there are two versions of the video file — the ‘.mp4’ version and the ‘flash .flv’ version. You’ll probably want to download the .mp4 version as it will be higher quality. So, right-click on the “Right-click and Save” link that is just below the .mp4 file name. Then, enter a location and voila, the .mp4 file should start downloading.
Sorry that it’s not so easy to do this!!
Enjoy and learn.
John
