Steal video from any website in OS X

If you want to record any video content played in your browser you can use Snow Leopard's QuickTime X screen recording feature. If you want to avoid the need for cropping the video, put the video on full screen before starting the recording.
If you also want sound with your video you need reroute the speakers to the microphone with a software like Soundflower and select this new input source within Quicktime X as an input source for sound.

Quicktime Pro - much easier. ;) I wish Apple integrated QT Pro into the new Quicktime in SL. Hopefully, they do it in the next revision.
If not, I run Snapz Pro, which has a dead-simple screen recorder that captures video and audio. Just a click of a button.
This is a nice tip though!

Yeah, I wonder why QT Pro isn't part of SL. It's so strange.
Some videos don't get captured. I tried vimeo once and all i get is a black rectangle
Mh, I think I never stumbled across any video that the Firefox-plugin Download-Helper couldn't cope with.
