donwloading or capturing a streaming file

mjrand · Sep 10, 2005

I'm trying to help someone download a streaming video they want to use in a class presentation. Is there any way at all I can download it? Or if not, to cap it while it's playing?

Video is at http://www.redmusic.com/video/PreservationHall/EPK.asx

fraps for video capture, although the trial only lets you do 30 seconds

You can try this. I haven't used it, but I've been thinking about getting it. Let us know if it works.

Well I tried to grab it using my version of Web Stream Recorder Pro...but it didn't work.

VLC will allow you to dump the output to a file.

if its a playlist file with the video, you can download the playlist (right click, save as) then open the playlist with windows media player.
then right click the file in wmp and get the file name.

then from here i use an html file with a link to the actual video so i can right-click and save as

if you dont know html, it goes like this...

<html>
<body>
<a href="[url of file goes here]">link</a>
</body>
</html>

or sometimes, you can just right-click the video while it's playing and go to properties to get the url. then you can use the above html method to download the file
