Help with capturing a streaming video...

[spdrknight]

Can anyone out in the Hype! help me capture a video that is embedded into a site? I want to grab it before the site, perhaps it will or wont, stops hosting it. The link is below, it is the trailer for the Dark Tower comic from Marvel.

Thanks a bunch, hopefully there is some help out there for me.

Anybody out there? I've tried numerous programs and I just can't save this video. Ideas are welcome.

View the page source and find the source file
download it

This is going to sound stupid, but... how do you get to the source page?

That wont work this is a flash file that's been streamed and embedded from another location (brightcove.com) into Marvels page, ive had a look at it before and i cant figure it out, but page source wont help

For future reference for you anyway its View - page source on firefox and something similar on IE

Thanks for the info. I was getting the idea that capturing the video was impossible. Oh well.

CamStudio, just Google it.

Alright, I am back and still in a pickle with this video. I found the trailer on youtube and tried using FireFox and Video Downloader to get the video. All was well till I tried playing it...

About ten or fifteen seconds in to the trailer the video went weird and stopped. I am not sure what happened. Any ideas?
