Ruutu Downloader: 2 Powerful Apps

I tested 20+ apps before choosing the best Ruutu downloader apps. In the end, only two worked consistently. You can explore their details below!

Best Ruutu Downloader

1. GetFLV

GetFLV is a powerful Ruutu downloader that offers access to valuable features like batch downloading and video capture.

Paste the link in the app and click the blue side download arrow from the taskbar. This will open the webpage.

The app will analyze the video links from the respective page and grab any download links.

The first link it found was from the ad playing before the actual show started. For this reason, I chose the second link and clicked the Download button.

The app begins the download process, but it’s worth noting that, unfortunately, the free version only downloads half of the video task. You can purchase the premium version to get the full video.

After it’s done, you can navigate to the download location and play it offline in your media player.

Pros:

• Fast download process
• The app rarely fails to identify download links
• It includes other valuable tools like Audio Ripper and Video Maker
• You can add downloaded videos to custom categories
• It includes a file manager for downloads

Cons:

• Downloads only 30MB or 50% of smaller files
• The interface is outdated and can be confusing

2. JDownloader 2

JDownloader 2 is another powerful Ruutu downloader that crawls the target webpage and extracts any links it finds.

To start, click the Add New Links button and paste the Ruutu video link into the pop-up. Then, press Continue.

The app will extract downloadable content links from the webpage and present you with a list. Select the videos that look like the target, and click Add to Download List.

Select the items added to the Download list, and press Force Start to begin the download process.

Once it’s finished, navigate to the file location and play it with your preferred media player.

In this case, I identified four videos that might have been my target, so I had to download them all. In other cases, you can see the file name and size and make your choice based on this.

Pros:

• Fast downloads and processing of webpages
• It works with various platforms
• It identifies all the links it can from crawling the target webpage

Cons:

• Depending on the source, you’ll get occasional fails
• The user interface is confusing and complicated
• It can sometimes be hard to identify the correct download links

Is It Legal To Download From Ruutu?

No, it’s illegal to download content from Ruutu and any other platforms under the Sanoma Media conglomerate.

I explored the Sanoma Media General Terms of Use to answer this question.

Here are my conclusions:

• The customer receives a limited right to use the Service under the Terms of Use and any Special Terms and Conditions.
• The customer may not dismantle or bypass any protections or measures that Sanoma may have made to prevent unauthorized use of the Service.
