So I wanted to download the video to watch it later on. The webinar organiser had posted a copy of the webinar to the Facebook page, which was fantastic.
Unfortunately our Internet at home is not that great, and Facebook video in particular often freezes.
So I wanted to download the video in order to watch it, and was unable to find anything on Facebook to help me do that.
It took me a bit of hunting, but I managed to find a YouTube video with "how to" instructions.The instructions are:
- Go to your Facebook wall where the video is located
- Double-click the video to play it, so it opens in the Facebook pop-up, with your timeline blacked out in the background
- The URL in the address bar above will now have changed
- Change the "www" to "m" in that address bar
- Hit enter
- The format of the page will change to a very simple layout
- Play the video once more
- Right click the video and choose "save video as"
- Navigate to wherever you want to save it on your hard drive as normal, and click save
