652287 2008-03-24 06:04:00 if your meaning video clips you can use something like keepvid Link here (http://keepvid.com/) gary67 (56)
652288 2008-03-24 06:15:00 You can get the .flv files from tvnzondemand if you have a Youtube video downloader such as Orbit (wwww.orbitdownloader.com) jwil1 (65)
652289 2008-04-02 02:48:00 it doesn't seem to work with tv3 news though, the "video" cannot be "recognized". WestMclaren2004 (7303)
652290 2008-04-02 03:03:00 it doesn't seem to work with tv3 news though, the "video" cannot be "recognized".

That because the video on the TV3 website is in a different format then what’s on the tvnz website.

As the video on the tvnz website is a mix of flash video & Windows Media video & on the TV3 website its all Windows Media video.

Hope this helps :)

652292 2008-04-02 22:06:00 TVNZ is easy to grab the .flv files from, but TV3 streams them differently so is more difficult.

I used WMRecorder (http://www.wmrecorder.com/) to grab a news story from TV3 not too long ago. It worked fine. There are possibly free alternatives to WMR, but you'd need to search them out.
