Hello!

I am trying to download this video from TV.com

http://www.tv.com/video/S_GCe7Sa8r8_o7M6vp7j_oeclVLRD8yu/101/3015/late-show---1-30-2009?o=cbs

Use can also see the same video on Letterman's CBS site:

Using the latest version of Replay Media Catcher I am only able to save/capture the opening commercial. I have also tried the latest version of DownloadHelper within Firefox.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :D

Thanks!

Download Helper can only save HTTP videos, it doesn's support even the regular RTMP protocol, I'm not even talking about Adobe secure RTMP measures (RTMPE).

As for Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm), please read the following:
As of January 28, 2009, any newly installed copy of Replay Media Catcher does not support Adobe Secure RTMP Measures. (http://www.applian.com/replay-media-catcher/support/secure-rtmp-measures.php)

GetFLV (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/GetFLV-Download-and-convert-flash-video-streaming.htm) can download TV.com Videos. Please check it.:)

Starting from here:

i've picked the Victorias Secret show. (find it!! (http://www.tv.com/wall/10501826/victorias-secret--full-episode?tag=10501826) :D )

when i play it in GFLV, i get 5 different stream quality options (bitrate, resolution), see screenshot. I can download all streams at the same time!, see screenshot.

TV.com is not the original publisher or producer of the video content .. but it takes, similar to Hulu, the videos from "hundreds" of U.S. TV stations and posts them on their webpage (or links to the original webpage). As it is common practice, the video material itself is NOT hosted on TV.com servers nor on the original websites (CBS, ABC, NBC, etc.) but on the typical "edgefcs.net"-servers.

Even with proxy servers, the download from TV.com is very fast (350KB/s),.. so if you need HD videos, TV.com is a good alternative to look for them.

The Victorias Secret stream url is:
rtmpe://cp48590.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand?ovpfv=1.1&?auth=dbEcMb5bzavaZavcicTakdMcxaScycmbkak-bnSe6D-h0-buy-MaDNhUkd&aifp=v001&slist=video/temp_hd_gallery_video/CBS_Production/573/542/

Good luck!

THE MAIN POINT IS:
Most videos on the inet (by TV stations such as CBS, NBC, ABC, etc.) are *not* available in HD quality (i.e. 720p or higher). But *if* it is, programs such as GetFLV will automatically tell you by catching all possible streams. In our example, the Victorias Secret, the video is available in 5 different stream qualities. One of which is HD!
