hi rodrigo,

what video format (wmv, real, QT?) is it? and is it a http pseudo
stream, or a real streaming protocol like RTSP? I think the only way to
go is to find a command line tool for this purpose that you can call
from director (e.g. with shell xtra). I've successfully used "curl" to
record streaming mp3 (shoutcast, http-streams) to file in a director
based mp3-player, and later on switched to "streamripper.exe". on
<http://streamripper.sourceforge.net/openbb/read.php?TID=492&page=1> I
found a note that streamripper can also rip winamp video streams
(NSV-format), I don't know about other formats, but there might be other
tools you could use.
