Hi!
I purchased a PPV event on gofightlive.tv. However, my internet connection at home is so slow that it is impossible to watch. Therefore I wanted to download it at work...
However, I also cannot seem to be able to download/capture the stream.
Here is an example of a free stream:
"http://gofightlive.tv/playVideo.do?videoId=2401&resolution=Medium&playerSize=Large"
For the one I want to capture you need to log-in and buy it, which probably makes capturing additionally difficult.
Can anyone help me with this problem or is this just impossible to do?
Thank you in advance!

I've tried the free stream from gofightlive.tv and it is an RTMPT stream. I was able to download it with Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm):

p.s. they may use other stream formats and protocols for PPV content

First of all, thank you so much for your help. Since I am at home I cannot really verify it for the PPV. The link is identified, but the download does not start. However, the video also does not play (I have to use a bad cell phone connection). I will try it again at work tomorrow.

It does work to a certain extend. I was able to download a protected trailer (about 6 minutes long), but when I try to download the full show it stops after some time and I do not get the full event.
This is the error message:
Sorry, could only download a partial RTMP stream
Media was saved anyway:
C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\My Recordings\2450-hires.mp4_363524F7.flv
Exception:
m_nErrType = 6
m_strDesc = "Connection was closed by remote host"
m_strFile = F:\proj32\TestRTMPClient\RTMPStreamRip.cpp
m_nLineNumber = 858
Is there a possibility to resume? I have already got about 1,7 GB and I guess there is only about 300-500 MB missing....

When you get the error "Connection closed by remote host", it usually means they are doing a server side check. When the second stream created by Media Catcher is detected they drop the connection.
