Title: Snipping Video Help Post by: Abagadro on November 05, 2010, 08:40:28 PM Does anyone have the capability of snipping a couple of minutes out of a long .wmv file that is just playable on the internet (i.e. not sure it can be downloaded or at least I don't know how) so that it is its own file? Or, if it is easy, could someone provide instructions?
I'm trying to create a file of just a couple of minutes from the top listed file from here (1:36:00 to 1:38:32 to be precise): http://www.slctv.com/vd_rda_hlc.htm Title: Re: Snipping Video Help Post by: Engels on November 05, 2010, 09:12:19 PM Gave it a shot with Firefox's Download helper but the media don't download regular. I'm no expert, however.
Title: Re: Snipping Video Help Post by: Trippy on November 05, 2010, 10:53:19 PM It's a streaming media file (mms) -- you can't download it through normal means.
I'm making a clip for you via FRAPS.

Title: Re: Snipping Video Help Post by: rattran on November 06, 2010, 06:10:48 AM That was pretty awesome.
Title: Re: Snipping Video Help Post by: Sheepherder on November 07, 2010, 06:05:14 PM For future reference:
Firefox has an extension called Flashgot which might be able to capture the file without doing a screen capture, and Windows Movie Maker is actually pretty slick for simple editing.

As I said at the top you can't download mms streams through normal means even if you know what the URL of the stream is.

Point is, it's very possible even by using household software. Title: Re: Snipping Video Help Post by: Trippy on November 08, 2010, 01:24:47 PM Yes it can, however, I haven't had good luck with it capturing partial streams but that was a while ago with an old version. Hence my usage of FRAPS.
