In Firefox, go to Tools->Page Info, and select the Media tab. Look for
the URL starting
http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf ([1])
Cut and past the URL into a command line, and run the Perl module
URI->canonical on the string. From the result[2] select the part after
videoUrl= [3] [4] and download it using wget,curl, etc. View with
mplayer or xine.
Email you 6+14MB? Wrong tool[5].
If you don't have the tools to download the files yourself[6], for a
limited time only, look in
http://www.zen36705.zen.co.uk/tmp/
The land+rover file seems to be in TiVo format, and I can see the
video, but don't hear any sound.
Redemption of drinks can be arranged via Steve. Alternatively, any
assistance getting the bulkhead of my 109" zinc coated and the whole
superstructure rebuilt and rewired will be gratefully received. Must
make contact again with the guy with whom I set off many hundreds of
pounds worth of fireworks a month ago, who was investigating a zinc
plating place down near Birmingham.
