All MegaVideo sources have a time-limit that will show this message after 72 minutes of streaming: "you must purchase a premium plan to continue watching this video". MegaVideo claims to allow users to watch videos for 72 minutes without a limit but in most cases this message appears much faster than 72 minutes. After this message, they expect you to wait around 2-3 hours before you can watch another megavideo source (or continue watching the same video). The first thing to remember is that Do NOT purchase any plans from MegaVideo! We are a free movie provider site and we have some tipes that can help you remove this limit free of charge.
Option #1: Using a firefox addon called illimitux:
1) Make sure you are using firefox and not Internet Explorer. You can download firefox here.
3) Watch the video below on how to use illimitux. You may also visit the official illimitux website for more information.
Option #2: The time-limit gets applied when the browser communicates with the megavideo server and informs the server of the number of minutes that the user has watched a video. In order to fix this issue, you can use the "Offline Trick" to watch the full video:
1) Open the MegaVideo page.
2) Press the play button and let the video play for a few seconds.
3) Then press the pause button, and let the entire video to load.
4) Once the video is fully loaded, disconnect your computer from the internet, or use a firewall to stop your browser from communicating with the MegaVideo server. If you do not know how to do any of these steps, then just unplug your ethernet cord from the back of your computer. When you are done watching the video you can reconnect it.

2) Click Ad Blocking, and then click Turn Off.
