It is not hard to do it...

1. Download video from Internet to local disk. There are several tools to select but CyberFlash will work on any Internet site.

GOM Player

This freeware media player comes with a ton of popular video codecs

preloaded. For codecs that GOM Player cannot handle, the software

automatically takes you to open source software sites to download the

appropriate files.

GOM Player can also handle partial AVI files. That means you can watch

movies while you're still downloading them. Or if you've only managed

to download part of the video, you can check it out to see if it's

worth downloading the rest.

KMPlayer



Like GOM Player, KMPlayer includes a ton of codecs for watching most

video files right out of the box. If you want to watch a file in a

proprietary format like h.264, you can specify an external decoder to

use with the media player.

KMPlayer can also handle damaged AVI files, Quicktime movies, and Real

Media files. You'll need to have RealPlayer and QuickTime installed,

or download Real Alternative and QuickTime Alternative.
