My tutor has sent me a link to a streaming file of the film I made but it is hosted within my University network so you'd need to be a Plymouth student to view it. How can I save the stream to my PC so I can upload it elsewhere?

Dorris was on about that, some plugin for firefox is needed!

What format is the video?
Try searching the webpage's sourcecode for .wmv or the extension the file uses, the copy and paste it's source link into your browser and it should promt to download it. If it plays the source video within your browser still, you can goto File>Save and that should grab a copy.

:cool2:

If you Universty has it on a webpage, you should still be able to download it.
There's also an extension for Firefox here: https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Download%20Tools&numpg=10&id=1993

Cheers, that one doesn't seem to work. I'm thinking the password security might be getting in the way.:(

What type of link has he sent you?

[Mr JP Fugley]

Get A l33t haxor to haxor it for you.

That's probably the simplest solution

For me, it opens windows media player and starts playing.

Does Media player not give you an option to 'save as' once it's streamed all the way thro' and stopped playing?

If not, Hypercam will do screen capture, Camtasia too.

[DanB]

just tell us all your password?

[Buffalo]

Are all the streams like this?
http://video.plymouth.ac.uk/tvb/spanglish_bb.wmv

[vidcc]

Hide a camcorder under your coat and video it.............try to stop the other students walking in front of the screen and don't let the copyright police catch you.

Really? So people can view it without the security asking for a password? :unsure:

It's in the temporary internet files folder once you've viewed it.

G:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

group6_discarded_100306.wmv - it's 22meg

I could send it to you, if needed :dabs:

That's okay, thanks. I only wanted to rip it because I didn't think people would be able to view it without my log-in for the university.
