Hey all, I really want to save some Silverlight videos of soccer games because I know NBC is going to eventually remove them from their website. They are Silverlight and I am stumped. The usual flash capture programs simply don't work. I tried programs called Orbit and StreamingStar and they just didn't seem to do anything. I could could try to record the screen, but I think that will be much worse quality than if I could somehow capture the original video source file. Here is an example of a video I'd like to download and save:

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

I was able to record that video with Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm) just fine :D

Do I have to watch the entire duration of the video to capture it? I was hoping for something that could just capture the source so it's not necessary to play back the entire video.

Well it looks like it's working and it downloads the source file. It's a very long video so it'll take a while. I will report back with the results to let you know if it worked or not... thankfully I have a lot of hard drive space. :D Thanks for the tip. Fingers crossed it works!

I don't think Media Replay Catcher worked. It looks like it will, but then after letting it sit a bit, it seems to be saving smaller files than what the full video is and they don't play properly. :(

Any other ideas? When I tried to use Orbit, it just downloaded tons of tiny video files, but none of them actually played.
