    Chinese new year coming and I will be going to somewhere without internet(or extremely bad coverage). I want to kill my time learning unity.

    Are there any good way to download all those training videos in FULL HD with AUDIO ? I tried chrome download extension(somehow google disabled it) and ssyoutube(not full HD or fullHD without Audio).

    Thanks.

    I use Firefox not Chrome, so I can only give you a recommendation of a Firefox addon. I use Flash Video Downloader, which has never given me any problems with the Unity instructional videos either on Vimeo or YouTube. I routinely download them before watching both because my connection can be slow and because it's easier to jump around in the video if I need to.

    For any video that has multiple options as far as quality, the Flash Video Downloader will give you the choice of which one you want to download and tells you the file size of each one. (For instance, the Live Training video for "Creating a Casual Jewel Mining Game" has options ranging from Mobile at 16MB to HD at 145MB.)

    You do generally have to hit play to start the video streaming before the addon will see it. Remember to close the tab with the streaming video once you start downloading so you're not both downloading and buffering at the same time, which generally slows your download speed.

    Make sure you grab any code snippets from the page and download any assets ahead of time. I've forgotten to do that here and there. With a slow ISP night for me it's only annoying, but with you not having any internet connection it would really suck.

    Thanks for your suggestion, just for sharing, i think i found a better way of downloading them. I used an app called 4K video downloader. I configured the app to default at FullHD. Then load unity page with those youtube video, i simply copy the link(do not need to start video or go to youtube page, unity page with the video will do, do not need to start playing), paste into that app, download will start(or queue depends on how many threads), they all get downloaded over the night.
