Can't save video even though I've downloaded it #89

Closed dmnd closed 13 years ago

dmnd commented 13 years ago
  1. Go to a non-downloaded video
  2. Let video completely load
  3. Turn off wifi (or get on a plane, into a car, etc)
  4. Press download button which is still green
  5. Get error message even though I can still watch the currently loaded video

This is probably a feature request rather than a bug, but it'd be nice if I could save the video that I've loaded rather than have to download it again.

Caching the video somewhere would allow this and also fix the 'load from the network again' behaviour discussed in #84 - maybe we can allow some space for caching recently loaded videos?

Sadly, this isn't possible. It isn't even possible in native code! The video player is tightly coupled to the network for best performance, and doesn't let us squeeze in and copy the data as it's downloaded.
