Hi,
Is there a way to capture the video off the internet that is playing on WMP? Most of the time I can right click on the link and save as target and it saves the file for me, but on some web pages it just saves the web page link. What do you in this case? Is there a way to save it as it is playing?
TIA

Try this: CamStudio (http://http://www.shareup.com/CamStudio-download-478.html) It freeware.

Just as important as the software are the instructions. The publisher has no support for the program. Check this out for the CamStudio FAQ (http://www.ehelp.com/camstudio/faqs/)

It'll capute a lot of video, but not everything. Probably not DVD. It'll capute them as AVI. I'll give you a hint: after you learn to work CamStudio, TURN OFF the acclerator in WMP when trying to capture, elsewise you'll wind up with a caputred blank video, audio only!
