How does WebVideoCap work ?

[sreyan32]

Hello everyone,
I am planning to use WebVideoCap to capture videos from streaming sites. Now I want to know that does WebVideoCap "capture" the videos or does it download it like IDM or RealPlayer??
Thanks.

Description

While watching a video in a Web site, you may sometimes want to save the video into your local drive, and then play it offline later. This utility allows you to capture .flv (Flash Video) files and RTSP/MMS video streams while the Web browser download and play them inside a Web page. After the entire video file is downloaded and played by the Web browser, the video file is saved in the folder that you selected, and you can play it offline later with any Video player.

This will be no good for live flash streams use rtmpdump instead.

Can rtmpdump capture videos from adobe flash player?? Actually I am looking for a software that has the same functionality as replay capture suite or wm recorder.

I am currently using WM Recorder in the WMX mode. Does that "capture' videos and not download them ??
