Go through both these methods once, as well as their perks and drawbacks, and then try out the one that is in sync with their requirement.

Using Firefox

Benefit: Easiest and shortest of them all.

Drawback: Might not work across all embedded videos.
  1. Launch Firefox, play the embedded video, and place the cursor inside the video.
  2. Now press and hold the left Shift key, and while doing so, do a right-mouse click.
  3. Then select Save Video as. Choose a location and hit Save.
  4. The embedded video will be downloaded and saved onto your PC.

Using Developer Tools

Benefit: You'll be able to download all the videos.

Drawback: It is a lengthy and time-consuming task.
  1. Play the embedded video. Then click on the overflow icon at the top right and select More Tools > Developer Tools.
  2. Now go to the Network tab and refresh the tab once [very important].
  3. Then click on the Size tab once. It will list the files in decreasing order, so our video file will now be at the top.
  4. Now go to the Name tab and have a look at the video file; it will usually be in the MP4 format.
  5. Likewise, the name might also have the resolution, so select the one with the maximum resolution.
  6. Once you click on the file name, it will open the Header tab. Copy the URL in the Request URL section and paste it in a new tab.
  7. So, click on the overflow icon at the bottom right and select Download. The video file will now be downloaded.
  8. Again, go back to the Developer Tools and this time, search, and download the audio file in a similar manner.
  9. You may now merge both the audio and video files using iMovie [Mac] or any third-party app from the web [Windows].
