  • How to capture streaming video?

    I see a bunch of programs that you can pay to get the job done, any good free apps? If not, then I'm gonna output the entire window to my input on my videocapture card. See if that works. Actualy, now that I think about it, it will probably look like crap since the input is RCA.
    Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

        If the video is WMV this sometimes works;

        When the default player appears right-click over it and select Properties from the context menu. On the properties sheet you'll sometimes see a direct link URL to the video clip. Drag-select this, copy the text, paste it into IE and hit enter. If you're lucky a direct download will start.

          I downloaded a program called "Hidownload". This almost worked, but didn't quite get the hidden url. The same company makes a program called "URL Helper". This is essentially a sniffer program designed to show you any URL that it finds. Once I started that up, it found the hidden link and I was able to directly download the file from there. Pretty slick program actually. Now I know I just need to start my sniffer capture to look for the hidden URLs

              Sure:http://www.streamingstar.org/

              It's shareware though, which means you have 30 days to use it.
