Capturing streaming video???

[SouthSideJohnny]

Is there an easy way to save streaming video onto my computer? I saw a video on a site that I want to burn onto a dvd so my parents can watch it on their tv. I think I can use Nero (??) to put in on a dvd but I have to figure out how to save the file first.

I have 'Total Recorder' and I saw that it now has a video add in. Anyone used it yet?

Is there an easier way to do this?

not sure, but in firefox you can use downloadhelper to save them to your pc. I bet you can just save/ burn these files to a dvd after

I have three programs that I use for this purpose - Camtasia, Snagit and Webcammax. They're pretty easy to find on torrent sites.

Thanks for the tips! I tried downloadhelper in Firefox and it worked ... sort of.

I set it up to convert the file to .avi format. When I play the file in Media Player, I only get audio - no video. I need to download some different codecs apparently, and I'll try to figure that out tonight.
