Capturing "embedded" .MOV's

I was surfing around the videos section on a website. When I click to view the movie, it opens it in a new window in an "embedded" QuickTime player. Meaning it doesn't just open the "regular" QuickTime player and play the movie. Thus keeping me from right clicking and doing the ol' "save target as" method. Anyone here know of a way I can capture (i.e. download) these movies so I can watch them whenever I please? Any help would be much appreciated.

Can you right-click the embedded player and see the source URL?

Another option is to save the HTML page that has the embedded player and view the source from there.

I've had success with going to the File menu at the top of the browser and saving the page, when the page itself ends in a .MOV or .QT extension.

Another method I've used before if all else fails is to clear your cache, watch the movie, then go to your cache and copy the movie out of it. Works like a charm most of the time.

some movies don't cache.

You could install filemon from http://www.sysinternals.com and watch which file in the cache was being written to as the movie was playing, and find it that way.

Depends on your OS. In XP, use My Computer or Windows Explorer and go to "C:\Documents and Settings\<You UserName>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files"
You should be able to find your movie in there.

In other Windows OS's, I think you can just get it at "C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files"

Temporary Internet Files!! That was what I thought, but I wasn't sure. The movies did cache, so I was able to get them. Much thanks to all who replied!!

Oh, and another thing.. unless I'm using it wrong, Star Downloader did not do the trick.

Mozilla Firebird has a really useful Page Info item under Tools. Go to the Media tab, and it lists all images and movies in use on the current page. You can usually save from there.

(put here, since Cynthetiq locked the other thread)

If you dig around in the source of the popup page, you can usually find the actual video's url and grab it from there.

but it looks like your way seems to be working quite well for you also.

If you have mozilla... Right click on page... "View page info" go to the media tab, select the qt movie, and click save as. Note that sometimes quicktime movies just point to another URL containing the real movie. This is what has happened if you save it and it's only a hundred byts or so. You can see this by opening it with any text editor, and downloading the contained URL.
