Ripping streaming video from websites

[DocSavage]

A debatable thing to do, but I'm trying to download some videos off of

http://launch.yahoo.com/musicvideos/

I've taken a quick look over the html source for the thing, but it's a bit above my league and I can't figure out how so simply save the videos.

Anyone have any suggestions? There's a goldmine worth of loops in all these videos!

Streambox VCR

think I posted this b4 the crash :(

launch.com use MS windows media videos though, does streambox VCR also works with this?

[MoRpH]

Yeah I think sooooo, haven't used it recently myself

From the readme:


NOTE:
streambox vcr beta 31 is the most stable and feature-packed in all cases *except* that it seems to fail on windows media files. SO, if you want to record windows media files, you need to use beta 30, but otherwise use beta 31.


Anyone have beta 30?

Hmm nope I have the beta 31 too :(

[MoRpH]

OK looks like the hunt is on for beta 30 then :D

I have ripped more videos with asf recorder, but now I need to convert it into avis and its not possible. Virtual Dub 1,3 version should do this for me, but it doesnt. It is giving me only error message ASF: parse error: too many segments in packet at 3f6 (4 expected) packet size?= f:00 etc...
anyone with similar experience here?

i tried everything in the instructions - to no avail,

cheers.
