Hi mouser,

Thanks for the feedback. I am still in the vague. No matter what soft I try: URL Snooper or Oribt downloader, I cannot download this short movie, however both applications return the same and unique URL for a given news flash movie.

I wonder if the reason is technical (your answer) or if it is a protective measure from this server (every News providers?)

I have no problem finding URL of flash movies and downloading them when they come from google or youtube, etc. URL Snooper returns their URL with almost 100% accuracy, as does Orbit downloader and they are Flash Movies.

This is really no my domain, but I am glad to get some knowledge. Thanks :)

Thank you for the answer Grorgy :)

However the movie is of little importance here, it is more a study case using CBS News + URL Snooper. I did another try maybe successful this time. Re-reading the help file, I only had to open a web site and push sniff :-[  Here s the link: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4468746n

URL found with URL Snooper: http://progressive.cbsig.net/video/6ce64adfa611c107b5fa7391c3da2859/1222731785/flv/CBS_Production/Newspath_BoatCrash_0922.flv

Can anybody give it a try and confirm if it is correct?

When I copy and past the URL into Oribt download manager to download the movie, there is the following repeated message: Connection Close. If I use the same URL in the address bar of the browser, it also returns an error message. Does that mean some stream content are protected and cannot be downloaded? Is there a workaround.

Many Thanks

I did another try today still without success.

Here is the movie URL: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4431002n

Here is a print screen

What I did:

Open URL Snooper
Enter the URL in Manually scan an URL
Open in a Browser
Sniff Network

Is that correct?
Can you get the URL yourself?

I have read the help file and watch the movie. I know the functions of URL Snooper 2, but I can be wrong in the steps or missing one? I appreciate some help for more experienced users.

Thanks  :Thmbsup:

Screenshot Captor / Possible BUG: Grab Windows Object
« on: September 26, 2008, 06:53 PM »
XP Sp2
Pentium IV
1 MB Ram

Hi,

I want to report a BUG to the official BUG thread, here is the happening. Thank you for your feedback/advice/comment.

When I use the function Grab Windows Object (Scrolling Windows works fine!). After I take the capture, the selection window opens but the system freezes for about 2 minutes. I cannot operate any of the options in the selection window: "You have captured a new screenshot, what now?". The tray icon remains red (i.e. it is processing). After 2 minutes or so, I can finally make a selection.

I have set maximum memory in the preferences, but of course, it does not affect the processing, only the starting of the app. Since I wanted to make an extensive use of the function Grab Windows Object, I find it very inconvenient. Even if it takes some time to process, Screenshot Captor should not freeze a system.

PS: Out-topic, how can I make a Print Screen of the selection window: "You have captured a new screenshot, what now?"

I don't find a tutorial (but the official flash presentation).
Not sure about the limitation/possibilities of URL Snooper.
If you are more knowledgeable than I am, and if you get the link of this movie by example, thank you to share with me.

Glad if I can get some pointers  :)

downloaded from that link without problems using <a href="http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/">free downloader</a>

That does not work for me... :(
Could you take a look at the print screen and get back to me with your settings.
Thanks

UrlSnooper / Newbie question - How to GET a movie from the URL
« on: September 25, 2008, 12:10 AM »
Hi, this is probably a stupid question, but from the URL in URL Snooper 2, how can I get the movie (save it in my system).

Here is a (missing) try - does that work with you??.

I tired URL Snooper 2 with the BBC news site (link)

http://news.bbc.co.u...i/europe/7631650.stm

URL Snooper returned this (link)

http://news.bbc.co.u.../2_6_5222/player.swf

However:
a) I cannot play it in the browser (BBC probably blocks it?)
b) how can I download the movie in my computer from this link

Thank you for the help & explanation
