How to download private Vimeo videos

Should you find yourself wanting to download private Vimeo videos as I did – here are the step by step instructions to follow.

This method is the free way – if you want to shortcut the process just buy the extension.

Pre-Requisites

  • Vimeo video (of course)
  • Chrome web browser
  • Simple Vimeo Downloader extension (get from the Chrome Store)
  • Video editor application of your choice (Windows 11 bundled is ClipChamp)

Assuming you have all the pre-requisites

  1. Search the Chrome Store (use link above) and then install the Simple Vimeo Downloader extension

2. Enable the extension

3. Browse to your private Vimeo video page. You may have to play the video for the extension to find it.

4. Click on Simple Vimeo Downloader icon. This will overlay the download options onto the video.

  • Choose which video size you want to download
  • Choose the audio to download

 

5. Use a video editor to stitch the video and audio back together again. For example use the inbuilt Windows video editor – such as ClipChamp

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2013

I’ve been very quite this year with communication. My new year resolution is to get back to keeping in constant contact so you know what’s going on with my products and running an online business.

In my offline business it’s become a tradition to do a special Christmas video. I got the idea years ago from Mike Stewart (some of you may know Mike as the internet audio guy). He does a fantastic self made music clip every Christmas.

Three years ago my family started syncing Christmas lights to music and it has become a new tradition for us. It brings the whole family together to help build something that gives enjoyment not only to us but the community around us.

This year there are 4,200 LED lights across 42 channels (sets of lights) and were programmed to one of our favourite Christmas songs (and movies), “Mr Grinch” – by the Whirling Dervishes.

Best wishes for your holiday season, and take care.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2011

In my offline business it’s become a tradition to do a special Christmas video. I got the idea years ago from Mike Stewart (some of you may know Mike as the internet audio guy). He does a fantastic self made music clip every Christmas.

This year I figured it was about time to include my online business in this tradition.

This year instead of self made music, I’m switching to Christmas lights, but not just any old Christmas lights. My family has undertaken to take our Christmas light display to the next level and make the lights run to music. Since this was our first year we’ve kept it small, but next year will be much bigger.

For 2011 there are 1600 LED lights across 16 channels (sets of lights) and were programmed by my 12yr old son Declan. He’s done a great job.

Best wishes for your holiday season, and take care.

PS Over the year I’ve put a lot of great content on the blog and done upgrade releases of Script Smart, Affiliate Page Pro, Backup Smart, and quitely released my latest software Local Rank Tracker, but just haven’t announced any of it. Sorry.

Talk soon

Local Google Places Rank Tracker / Rank Checker

It’s been 2 years since I released Backup Smart. I’ve been itching to release some new software.

I’m letting the market decide on this software, by starting small, getting a quick release out there, and seeing if people are interested in it and getting feedback.

I’ve learned a lot over the last 4 products that I’ve brought to market. This is by far the best way.

This software is for internet marketers that help offline businesses with their online marketing.

It finds the ranking position of a Google Places local business listing in the Google Places search results.

Think of a normal SEO ranking software like Market Samurai’s Rank Tracker, but this just for Google Places.

It’s in Beta stage at the moment, so it’s FREE. It’s called Local Rank Tracker.

Should there be enough interest in the software I’ll build it out to a full application.

Leave me comment with your thoughts.
