Is there a way to confirm that a video is RTMPE, so you don't waste your time trying to download with normal methods? I've been downloading youtube videos for at least three years, but normal methods didn't work with the following video

MGM Digital Media is obviously being given streaming powers the rest of mere mortals don't have.

It took me a couple of days of experimenting with different screen video capture software before getting a decent copy of this of Outer Limits video with it's unusual multi-channel sound.

The reason I had to experiment with different screen capture software is because one didn't know how to to work with my sound card, another could only capture about one frame per second of the final output video, etc. Finding one that works with a particular computer can take some experimenting.

use these 2 online sites to test

http://www.clipnabber.com
http://keepvid.com

if both of them dont show the correct http download link,it must be a rtmp/rtmpe stream

the one you posted is a RTMPE stream

[Stream Recorder]

You may use Replay Media Catcher to download YouTube videos for free. The program will show you an error in case of secure RTMPE stream.

Also Ask & Record Toolbar is a freeware software that allows you to save YouTube videos. It doesn't support RTMPE protocol as well.

Yes it is RTMPE.

However the same content is available on Hulu and downloadable using Jaksta - Provided your in the US (or appear to be).
