Need some help recording from nbcolympics.comI am trying to download the videos from NBCOlympics.com
I used Grab++, Orbit, WM Recorder and URL Snooper. I did manage to download the video through WM Recorder (It was under 5 minutes to begin with). However the video recorded as it played - example, the video had to bugger twice in IE (not using silverlight) and was choppy and lagged, thus the final .wmv does the same thing. However the final WMV is a full 11MB+ file. Is there a reason as to why it did that? (I have a Cable connection so the buffering is relatively fast) however when I had silverlight it did not need to buffer and loaded quickly with no lagging.. I have spent hours trying to get these videos and I am still at a standstill. Are there other programs I should try? Grab++ finds the URLS, they are mms and rtsp BUT the file size is not specified. Nothing shows up in my Temp Internet files. I also get errors in WM Player - first i can play the file and then later i get an error video. n b c has these URLs tighter then a drum > Last edited by Stream Ripper : 08-29-2008 at 08:58 PM. |

Re: Need some help, it works but then it doesn't , playing errors...This year NBC has teamed up with Microsoft (MSFT) to provide a wealth of Olympics footage at www.NBCOlympics.com. If you're really into specific events that aren't shown over your broadcast TV station, then you can likely watch them online. Very cool.
The Microsoft contribution is via the Silverlight video player, which you must install in order to watch video. Few video providers use Silverlight, which is why there are no programs (yet) that can record those feeds via stream capture. Anyways, If you're looking to record some of these events and save them forever, the best program to use is WM Capture. This on-screen recorder makes great quality videos from the Olympic feeds. To burn these recordings to DVD, try the new Replay Converter 3.0, which is currently in beta. You can also make iPod format videos, or AVI files to import them into your favorite video editor. Oh, I noticed that you need to enter a zip code and your Cable provider to watch some online feeds. Try 94118 and ComCast Digital if you're disallowed access. If this is a NON silverlight example, i'd like to test this for you: Can you please provide me with the URL of the video you're trying to record, so I can trouble shoot the issue? Stream Ripper |

Re: Need some help recording from nbcolympics.comMaybe my internet is having issues, but I wasnt able to load that page. Is that a NON silverlight link you're having trouble recording?
And my pleasure for the help. |

yes that is a non silverlight link, I did not install the silverlight and use Internet Explorer so it gives me the option of using a regular flash player. |

You might want to try Replay Media Catcher for this, as it's able to record more than most other programs out there, including the new flash version. WM Recorder would be another one to try as well... |
