iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

downloading script

Post by kai-70 » Tue Sep 04, 2012 6:13 am

I am trying to create a script for downloading from sites like http://www.embedupload.com/?d=1HVYKAE0Y0 I have tried using the ******* after the initial web address EG: http://www.embedupload.com/*** so I don't keep getting back to the file I have already downloaded when I made the first macro! I would be grateful for any tips/comments on how to make the clicks I make "generic" for any pages from embedupload.com

you can not use wild cart (*) in url (url goto) - imacros does not understand it.
the workaround is to scrape and save all video links first and then open it one-by-one from file

thanks for your reply! I guess the only way forward is a firefox java script or a desktop macro program! see the problem with these type of links is they have several pages before hand linkbuks adfly etc. and embeded upload has two pages for each link! I was trying to get a 23 part file and had to open 60 odd pages/tabs! and my poor clicking finger can't take much more! any other suggestions appreciated! regards kai

I use http://jdownloader.org to download from filesharing websites. It supports http://www.embedupload.com too.
