700688 2008-08-27 02:32:00 On the odd occasion I see on the Net a video clip I would like to save.

Here’s one.

www.truveo.com

Now I’ve managed to save it as a whole screen capture but I really only want the clip.

Any suggestions? :thanks

Ummm, I did that and it looked like a 5meg file was being downloaded ok. (I know not where too) Then Real Player lit up and nothing happened.

I tried clicking on record in Real Player but got a message "This Clip cannot be recorded"?

What have I stuffed up? :D

700691 2008-08-27 03:36:00 Why record it when you've got the file?

Realplayer probably doesnt know what a flash file is

Firstly, you need to find where the file got downloaded to. The video will be in FLV format, which Real Player cannot play.

Download and install this codec pack: www.free-codecs.com which will allow you to play .flv files downloaded off the internet (and many other video/audio formats).

Alternatively, you can convert the .flv into another format. You can try www.zamzar.com, who do free online video conversion - though you have to upload the video to them first.

700693 2008-08-27 20:12:00 Ok, well I can't find the file it downloaded anywhere. :( I've searched on Date, File size over 1meg and .flv so I guess it wasn't saved afterall.

Now however I can't get back on the site to download again.

Get this message: Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2008 19:32:47 GMT Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 401 Access Denied

However, I've downloaded and installed that Codec pack should I ever need it.

All very confusing. :D
