For those who live in UK may know that BBCs One big weekend gig was last week and the videos of the bands are on the website for a limited time. I have been trying to download these videos, but with no avail. I have tried Real Player 11 which gived the right click option "Download video with Real Player" but this only works with youtube,google video, etc. The download just finishes instantly, (despite it being a high quality 40min plus video) and then the file is blank (obviously). The video I want can be found here http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/bi.....s/editors/
Anyone got suggestions?
Thanks.

No way you can do that from a BBC site (legally) (copyright laws and the BBC are stingy, money grabbing....things) end of rant.
Unfortunately we can't tell you on this forum how to do anything illegal. :(
