Thanks to Derek on LLUG for this link that explains how Apple is trying to prevent Linux users from using their site. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1245441
The wget user-agent command works. wget -U QuickTime/13.3.7 http://movies.apple.com/movies/fox/avatar/avatar2009aug0820a-tsr_h1080p.mov I changed the version number so anyone reading the logs will know I got them back. Derek has tried the Firefox work around for mplayer but with no luck so far. Here is my twist on the mplayer command mplayer -user-agent 'QuickTime/13.3.7 (qtver=13.3.7;os=Windows Sucks ass Patch 35)' ' http://movies.apple.com/movies/sony_pictures/district9/district9-tlr1_720p.mov ' And just so you know that is a real version of Windows, I have the box it came in and is says that on the front in big black letters that I wrote with a Sharpie pen. It works so I am going to try to wrap it in a shell script and I will post the script when I get it working. -- Easy, fast GUI development. http://PerlQt.wikidot.com
