Watching Megavideo’s website they limit an individual to a certain number of minutes. Afterwards one must wait before they are allowed back on. Very annoying if a person is watching a movie or television show. Is there a solution.

If somehow your experiencing the Megavideo Time Limit Problem, you can try the solutions listed belows..
First of all, the megavideo viewing limit is only applicable to videos with 60 minutes of viewing time. It means that when you watch a video 59 min below, you won’t be experiencing this damn policy. It also means that this is only applicable to movies…
1. Since megavideo is detecting your viewing time via your IP, you can either change your ip address (applicable only to those who have dynamic Ips) by following this simple steps:
Step 1. Press the start windows start button and click run, or you can do this by pressing Windows+R.
Step 2. Type either CMD or Command.
Step 3. A black rectangular box should pop up.. Type ipconfig /release and hit enter
Step 4. You’ll notice that your computer will not be connected to the internet. Type ipconfig /renew to connect
Step 5. Wait for your computer to connect to the internet and exit the application.
The steps above doesn’t works on people using routers.. Instead, you can turn off the router a for a few seconds and turn it back on again..
2. Another method is by the use of a software called HotSpot Shield.. You can download the software here
Once you’ve installed the application, restart your pc and turn on the application. Click the connect button to connect through the software. Now you can browse your favorite videos unlimitedly
If you see the problem again, just open HotSpot Shield and click disconnect. After 2 mins, click connect again and it should work
3. Using a firefox plugin called downloadhelper, you can download the video to your harddrive and play it using VLC or FLV Player.
4. Using IE, you can wait for the video to load, open the temporary folder of your PC and locate the file their.. It should have the .flv extension.. Download a .flv player or VLC and it should work
5. Based on experience, you can wait for the video to load. After it loads, click file–>work offline to your browser.. It might work..
Correct me if something is wrong with the methods posted above…

2) FUCK MEGAVIDEO and download Graboid video at following link:
http://www.graboid.com/home/download/
It has an interface that allows user to search for videos,at premium quality, and has a rating system similar to btjunkie (for torrent files). It has conversion options so you can convert format to .flv, .vob, .avi, etc. Also, you can opt to either stream video, download video, or a choice to download video after the end of the stream. Real easy to use and intuitive.
