Hi All,
Would you help in downloading the video lectures from the following site:

http://wally.cs.iupui.edu/n341-client/

some of the rtsp links it contains: rtsp://wally.cs.iupui.edu/n355/vr1c.rm

Both my HiDownload and NetTransport are not able to get these videos.

I contacted the site admin, he said he is able to download them.But for me its giving trouble..Please help me..

[Stream Ripper]

I was not able to open any of the links on that site, as it said the file format was unknown and there was no association with it....

Save me the hassle of searching please, is there a trick or certain file/program needed to open these?

Thanks

[Stream Recorder]

I didn't have any problem recording rtsp:// .rm lectures from this web-site with NetTransport. And I usually recommend to record such lectures with this stream recorder 'coz it has been the most reliable for me when recording multiple Real Media rtsp streams. Just make sure you use the latest version.

For whatever reason HiDownload failed to record for me, but you can try many other RTSP RealMedia recorders inlcuding Replay AV, WM Recorder.
