Grr, it looks like youtube-dl doesn't do live streams on evilFB yet

Anyone successfully record Jen's talk or know if they're publishing it as a non-live stream?

To save a facebook live stream (or any video hosted by them) -

right-click on the video and get the 'video url'
paste into address bar, swapping www for m
start the video to get past the preview image
right click and save.

Doing it a slightly more complicated way :)

It's worth it, even if the camera angle means we need to wait for the presentation file to be uploaded to have a chance of seeing what was on the screen.
