Subject: [ubuntu-uk] BBC Click includes Ubuntu
The recent weekend TV program of BBC Click was devoted to Open source,
Ubuntu, an an interview with Mark Shuttleworth.
I can manage to get it to play using Real player, but I cannot think
of how to capture the stream to view it later.

('watch now')
Any ideas please?

I found this website that mentions a mozilla add-on that is meant to allow
the downloading of a video being watched -
http://javimoya.com/blog/youtube_en.php
I haven't had a chance to test it yet though.

I'm trying to dump the WMV stream with Mplayer. Then in theory I should
be able to re-encode it into AVI format with Mencoder.
The command line I'm using to dump the stream is:
mplayer
http://wm-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms2/news/n5ctrl/tvseq/od/bbc1/bb/wm/video/click_bb.wmv
-dumpstream -dumpfile dump.wmv
Then I'm hoping that this will work to encode it into AVI:
mencoder dump.wmv -ovc lavc -oac mp3lame -o encodedvideo.avi
I haven't however got the whole stream dumped yet though so it may not work.
Anyway, for future reference there is a link on the Ubuntu forums with
regards to converting video files here:

[ubuntu-uk] BBC Click includes Ubuntu
The recent weekend TV program of BBC Click was devoted to Open source,
Ubuntu, an an interview with Mark Shuttleworth.
I can manage to get it to play using Real player, but I cannot think
of how to capture the stream to view it later.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/click_online/
('watch now')
Any ideas please?

You need mplayer. Then you find the address of the actual feed and check it plays in mplayer If it does (it should do) then add -dumpstream on the command line. You may also want to add -dumpfile FILETOSAVETO If you don't it will save it in a file with dump in the name (I forget the exact name). Be warned the BBC prevent streaming faster than you can watch so mplayer will take roughly the same amount of time as the clips length to download the file. As always for more info see: man mplayer I find this ironic: Most computer tasks can be achieved by using completely free software, reports BBC Click. Except of course watching the clip, or using the new BBC iPlayer!

Forgot to mention: There is an open in standalone player link. Right click that and chose copy link location Then add the flag -playlist to the mplayer command line (the link is to a .ram, and this is a list of .rm files to play). So it would be something like: mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile click.rm -playlist 'URL' (obviously replace URL with an actual URL. Sit back and wait.
