www.forextv.com: How Do I Record Forex TV video stream (rtmp:// .flv)


Fellow Forum Members,

I want to archive the videos available on www_ForexTv_com. However, the problem I am encountering is that they have the URL for most of their videos hidden behind some Java code. Therefore, your average FLV online downloader app does not seem to work.

I have tried the following apps with no success:
  1. URL Helper - this app is suppose to unhide the hidden URL but I have had no luck.
  2. HiDownload - no success with this app.
  3. FLV Recorder - no success with this app. It recommends I use Hidownload and URLHELPER.
  4. URL Sniffer - no success.
  5. Camatasia Video Recorder - Interesting result. It managed to record the video as it played on my monitor online, but the filesize turned out to be close to 2 gigabytes. This video should not exceed 40 MB, so I don't understand why Camatasia is generating such a big file.

Any help that any video stream expert can provide will be greatly appreciated. I am really stumped here. I want to be able to download these videos in their orginal FLV file format so that I can refer to them later on because ForexTV_com pulls these videos down after a weeks time and once they are gone they are gone forever.
