Unable to capture stream from embedded WMP (Windows Media Player)


Hi All,

I'm trying to capture a video stream from a website which uses a URL for streaming something similar to this:

http://www.somewebsite.com/movies/xx...php?u=5283&i=1

I'm neither able to play this separately in WMP11, nor with any of the other video players. The movie can be played only from within the browser inside the wmp plugin. I'm not even able to capture/record the video. Tried using webvideocapture and virtually every other video streaming s/w, but it does not work.

I saw that IE stores the video as a dat file in Temporary Internet Files directory under C:\Documents and Settings\...\LocalSettings\Temporary Internet Files, but even that is not play'able. I even tried copying that and tried to play it, but that too didn't work. Is there anyway to capture and store this video on disk for offline viewing?

Usually if I copy paste the url of the video in WMP, it used to work, but this one seems strange. Can someone pls help me in resolving this?

Please try WM Recorder in the PRO mode. WM Recorder is the most powerful Windows Media stream recorder. It allows you to capture packets coming to your Windows Media Player.

You can also convert DAT to WMV:
Windows MEdia Format - DAT from streams (Play DAT files or convert them to WMA, WMV)
