Problem capturing feed from Discovery.com - site Flash player, MoveMediaPlayer

[AncientElite]

I'm trying to capture the stream from Discovery.com (Mythbusters) and no matter which program I use all I can get are the ad's. Although with Replay Media Catcher I get .qss files for about 15mins of recording.

Am I doing something wrong or is that an unrecordable stream? The video plays only in a site downloaded flash player and seams to be http...(video.discovery.com/player.html).

I'm thinking that I will be forced to use screen capture program.

Has anyone got around this problem? Or any advise on the best quality screen capture program would be appreciated.

You need the MoveMediaPlayer to watch their video streams. They might be using a proprietory format/protocol.

The video is not available in my country.

Have you tried to analyze URLs with URL Snooper? Can you PM me the list of URLs?

Well i'm a new member but not new to stream recording. Here's the log from URL Snooper.

netstorage.discovery.com/common/video/firstAds/DSCHPad.swf
netstorage.discovery.com/common/video/firstAds/dsc_eCommerceAd.swf
netstorage.discovery.com/common/video/firstAds/dsc_eCommerceAd2.swf
netstorage.discovery.com/common/video/firstAds/sci_eCommerceAd2.swf

And here's the URL from the header in the Site Flash Window.

video.discovery.com/player.html

I'm surprised that - video.discovery.com/player.html - doesn't show up in URL Snooper. So I'm guessing it's a new format, because I can't get it to open with anything else besides the site flash player.

I've never used a Screen Capture Program, just because of quality issues.

I would appreciate if someone could tell me what the Best Screen Capture Program is with a User Defined Area to use.
