Please help me to download the following music video from blastro.com

Code:

http://www.blastro.com/player/jairdynastartofinvention.html?detect_mediatype=flv&detect_bitrate=_300&big=1

Every software that I tried failed to download the video.

Some streams at blastro.com use RTMP protocol and I don't have problem recording them with Replay Media Catcher.

But this video uses HTTP protocol and for whatever reason Media Catcher didn't pick up the URL of the video. But I went to Tools->Settings to disable "Capture HTTP media streams" and enable "Web Stream Dumper". This allowed me to capture the music video without any problem.

It is easy to get the URL with URL Snooper, but it has a timestamp. Have you tried to download video from it?

I would suggest to use either Web Stream Dumper of Replay Media Catcher or any other software that can capture HTTP .FLV packets from flash player. Please see the following FAQ for more:

i got the url,i just tried it,its forbidden to access it
the best way to capture such stream is use packets capture sotware like WebVideoCap or PIAFCTM,both are freeware
