Having a hard time capturing a (CBC-aired) Shakespeare video

I'm having the heck of a hard time capturing a Shakespeare play which aired on CBC last week.

The stream is hosted at http://www.cbc.ca/player/Shows/Shows...ID/2675010041/

I've installed numerous programs (such as video downloadhelper and livestreamer under Linux, and rtmpdump and Replay Media Catcher under XP), and spent quite a lot time, to no avail. (Although downloadhelper gave me the SD version of the play, weighing about 600 MB.)

I'd really, really appreciate a hand in capturing the HD version of this play. I'm moving out and I won't have Internet access for a year, and...

I forgot:

video downloadhelper yields the following link to the stream:

Code:

EDIT: although that's probably for the SD stream, which is not the desired one.

Hey man,

I called my brother and we did it together.

Now, with your image it worked! thanks a bunch.

I'll be paying it forward, as usual.
