How to capture a video. No, I'm asking.

[icarus]

I would like to capture a streaming video file that plays in a pop-up window from an online site.

For YouTube I use "Keep Vid" but this site doesn't have a URL for me to try that.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

huh.
I have RealPlayer version 11
If you open RealPlayer and go to Tools >>Preferences >> Downloads and Recording (at the bottom of the list). Is it enabled?

Aha! I have version 10.5. One moment -- I'm downloading the latest version. I thought I had it but I was wrong.

it also says you have to restart your browser for the program to do its thing.

Hmm. It'll do it in YouTube, but I'm getting a blank recording when I try to download the streaming video in this site.

I think they have it pop up this way to prevent people from copying it. So it's going to require a creative solution. Hmm....
