[Ldsoss] Capture of Streamed WMV

[Steven H. McCown]

The technical answers to your question are good ones.  However....

You might want to ask permission of the stake leaders, first.  The church
has on numerous occasions re-stated their long-standing policy prohibiting
members from showing external material in a church setting -- whether or not
it is copyrighted.  As an aside, the PBS documentary was not that
flattering...

We all knew this day would come....

Someone in my stake wants to show part of the PBS Mormon documentary as
part of a priesthood talk.  What I need to get is the interview with
Elder Jensen when he talks about how his mission changed his life.  I
found it on PBS.org (http://www.pbs.org/mormons/view/) and can view it
on my computer.  Of course it is a streamed video, so I went to the
cache and found the ASX file.  Editing the file, I found the MMS URL but
that is where I get stuck.  

I have never found a way to just file-save save the stream to a file.  I
have found a number of shareware/freeware/trialware programs that are
supposed to help me do this
(http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/record-streaming-vid
eo-windows-media.htm), and have tried most of them with little
satisfaction. 

Does anyone have a suggestion?

PS.  Yes, I think this is fair use and therefore have little concern for
copyright issues.
