How to Save Streaming Videos?
NOTE: Saving streaming video/audio is not legal for distribution. The reasoning behind the publishers releasing streaming videos (i.e. a big file in several small parts) is for faster viewing in the video player as well as to prevent distribution. So, if you download it, save it for your own personal archival use and not for distribution else where. As usual, use it at your own risk. That said, enjoy!
Real Media Format:
It is difficult to save a streaming file from Real Media format, however it is not impossible:
Step 1: Save the http link of the video clip to your desktop. [Right Click -> Save As]
Step 2: Open the .rm file on Notepad. [Right Click -> Open With -> Notepad]
Step 3: It is a text file that will look like this:
Step 4: Copy the rtsp:// linkrtsp://62.2.180.194:554/doha.rm?cloakport=80,554,7070--stop--
pnm://62.2.180.194:7070/doha.rm?cloakport=80,554,7070
Step 5: Open your downloader and save the rtstp file. (rtsp files wont save in any browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox etc)
Step 6: If you don't have a free downloader, I recommend Net Transport. The newest version is not free but, we can download the older, completely-free version from here. Other downloaders that can download rtsp are trial-based software that expires after 30 days [like HiDownload, CoC's Stream Down].
Step 7: Once you install the Net Transport, click on NEW and paste the rtsp:// you want to download and it will download it to your C:\ .
Windows Media Format:
The above logic applies, except that the URL in the video clip (eg. http://) has to be replaced with mms:// and then download it. It quite likely would work on many scenarios. If it fails, see the long answer.
Long Answer:
See http://www.infocellar.com/software/streaming-media.htm. It has a lot of information on saving streaming files from a wide variety of sources/formats, along with nice detailed descriptions.

All about the swiss tennis super-star Roger Federer, an amazing person who shines beyond tennis. Get the latest word about the magic he does with his strings.
If you're using Internet Explorer to view such videos then :
1.click on the TOOLS option in the IE tool bar
2.select the Internet Options
3.In the Temporary Internet Files,click on "Settings".
4.In the pop-up menu,click on View Files.
5.This takes you to a folder where most of the temporary internet files are stored.
6.Right click on blank space in the folder and choose "Arrange items by size"
Most of the streamed video files are of larger sizes (like 5768KB).If you are viewing YouTube videos then chances are the streamed videos are named "get_video[]".
7.Save the file to some other location and rename the file by putting an extension .flv.
8.Now you will need an FLV (or Flash Video) player to play this file.(I use VLC Player which is a very versatile player and can play most videos of any format)
9.So check the file and see if it is the video you have been watching.
10.OK....you might not always find your file in "Temporary Internet Files" Folder....
Don't worry!Go to C:\Documents and Settings\~\Local Settings Folder and click on the TEMP folder.Here you will find another "Temporary Internet Files" Folder.Go in there and click on "Content.IE5" folder(here 5 represents the version of ur internet explorer,u might b using another version,bt the process is the same).Now all the folders you see inside contain Temporary internet files.Proceed in the same way as I had first mentioned and look for the larger files.The renaming procedure is also the same.
NOTE:The renaming is done as .flv bcoz most of the sites use this format to stream videos.For sites using other formats,please rename them according to the format used.
ENJOY SAVING STREAMING VIDEOS N NOT HAVING TO CONNECT TO THE NET EVERYTIME U WANT TO WATCH YOUR FAVORITE VIDEOS!!TK CARE!!
I tried a lot of methods. This one seems to work. The record button in RealPlayer doesn't work.
Really, this impress me. Thank you so much
