GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

[Kat]

It used to be easy. But, now the site seems to decide what is best for you and I don't have a new system and it always records the streams in non-HD (640 x 360 pixels).

Is there any way to circumvent this problem? This isn't a primetime show so I can't just google it and get links like I normally do.

I have both GetFLV which works on cbs and Replay Media Catcher which also works.

I looked it up and it was in Asia..does that serve as a proxy or something to send to tha actual videohost/link you're trying to download? If so...is that why the downloads are slow when downloading with GetFLV...? Thanks..

Many programs check for updates. May be this is the case. It is better to ask GetFLV support. Or you can use a packet sniffer to analyze the traffic.

I have this exact same problem!! I am trying to download the HD video stream from CBS.com. I can record using Replay Media Catcher4 (Jaksta) but the quality isnt too good.

CBS has changed it now so when you view a video, it detects how fast your internet connection is and displays the optimal video quality for your connection and you cannot change this.

My connection speed just isn't quite fast enough for it to automatically choose the HD.

I can download the stream with Replay Media Catcher 4 (Jaksta) no worries but it isnt in HD (I assume this is because of my internet speed).

Is there any way at all to force it to display/or download the HD video stream? Any apps or other methods? I have tried 'GetFLV' but it doesnt work either.

Latest GetFLV can download HD Streams from cbs.com. Please check it and give us feedback. Thanks!

Ok I got GetFLV..
Is there anyway to use the inbuilt browser behind a proxy server?
Or use getflv to sniff stream straight from firefox (where i have my proxy settings enabled)
You sure this will get the HD stream? CBS has recently changed its video streaming setup so it will automatically choose the quality for you and theres no way to change it. My connection speed isnt fast enough for it to automatically choose HD. So will this still work?
Thanks

UPDATE:
Ok I figured out how use GetFLV behind a proxy server.
But when I watch the video on CBS.com using the GetFLV browser it only captures the initial advertisement at the start of the vid. And he doesnt capture the video at all... I dont think this app will work especially when I just want the HD quality stream:

1. Please install latest GetFLV.
