dot net solution
Hello everyone,
Does anyone know how to save a video like they have on a news website or youtube. Is there some sort of software that is needed?
Do you program using VS? If so, I have code that fills a webbrowser control with content and provides for capture from that control. It captures still images of the entire url image, but it could be modified to capture streaming video (probably through a recursive algorithm).
Also, look at the page source. Does it remotely resemble this?:
<!--- BEGIN PLAYER --->
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan ---->
<object ID="MediaPlayer" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="270" CLASSID="CLSID:22D6f312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" STANDBY="Loading Windows Media Player components..." TYPE="application/x-oleobject" CODEBASE="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=6,4,7,1112">
(other stuff.....)
<embed TYPE="application/x-mplayer2" SRC="some url" NAME="MediaPlayer" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="270" autostart="1" showcontrols="0"></embed></object>
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan ---->
<!--- end PLAYER --->
If so, you might be able to construct a hack that fills the webbrowser with the video only and not the whole page.
