videos in cyber room

Hi there,

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to download the videoclips in the cyber room? I've tried it but somehow I can't download them. And when I just watch them, the clips come in bits and pieces because of buffering periods.

After watching the whole video, look in your Temporary Internet Files

Thank you Daned, I've found the file in my Temporary Internet Files. It only bothers me that I can't copy it to another folder and let it play on its own. It stays a HTML-file which is linked to the NPGMC-site, so does this mean that if NPGMC removes it from the site, I can't play it anymore? I'm afraid so.

Well as you can probably tell I'm not exactly a computer wizard. I just like to keep the videos even if NPGMC removes them, but I doubt if that's possible.

Hmmm there should be a WMV file that you can copy to another folder...

I thought so to but it is a htm file and it won't change into anything else (I tried!). When I copy it to another folder, it "loses contact"with the NPGMC-site and I can't play it anymore. I can only play the original one in my Temporary Internet Files.

No, somewhere else in your files should be a movie file. Try emptying the temp internet files completely, then go to the video on the internet again and return to your files. There really ought to be a proper media file in there which u can shift to another folder. Honest.

Well I tried everything, cleared my Temporary Internet Files, played I like it there again, looked in my Temp Files and saw nothing but htm-files, jpg-files, swf-files... nothing I can use to save the actual video on my computer. I guess I'll stay dependent on the NPGMC-site for the videos, I can only save the links to the video on the site...

The settings for your temporary internet file folder are too small...try adjusting them so that your TIF folder is larger, and then play the videos...

If you do that first, they'll show up in your Temporary Files...it's just that they're too large for what your hard drive currently allows for temporary files.

Well, I adjusted it to 32000 MB (couldn't get it higher) but still no video, only the swf, htm and jpeg stuff. Can anyone who succesfully downloaded the i like it there video tell me how big it is, so I can tell if it fits in my TIF?
