Usually, a right click on the link and "save as" will save any video or mp3 to your computer. But sometimes they go strait to a player and you can't save them. Either the link is to a HTML and the HTML has the player/movie embeded, or you get an error on the "save as" function. So...
<br>
<br>How can I save movies? Should I...
<br>
<br>Read the source of the HTML, find out where it is looking for the mpeg, and use that to download it... or
<br>
<br>(possibly eisier)
<br>Find it in my cache? Where would I look? I checked my temp folder, no-go.
<br>I'm running Win XP Home Ed.
<br>Any suggestions?
<br>Oh, and the two latest videos I have been unable to download are "The Parlor" and that interview with our soldiers.
<br>
<br>Thanks

look at the source of the HTML and find its address, then paste that into a download manager
<br>
<br>but then theres some real media or asf/asx videos that are stream only and only download a 1 kb shortcut when you try to download them (the soldier interview one is like this). thats when you need to use a prog called 'Streambox VCR' to paste the shortcut into, which downloads the actual file<br><br>------------------------------
