I almost never stream video in the browser, because '...buffering...' really annoys me. My attention span is already clinically short, and ...hey look, donuts! Hee, hee! Donuts. They're round. What? Oh, right. Downloading Flash, gotcha. Rather than using a script, I use a Firefox plug-in that knows how to download Flash video from loads of sites, using the standard browser download mechanism (so I get little progress blobs at the bottom of my browser while I continue to surf for donuts). http://www.downloadhelper.net/ I find it particularly useful for snarfing technical presentations from Google video and Yahoo! YUI! Theater! for later playback on my shiny video iPod bauble, thus allowing the computers to be used for more computery purposes, such as accountancy, or sending out advertisements for international criminal syndicates, or something. -- Frank Wales [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
