Help answer this question below.

How do I save a video feed/streaming video like on UTube on my computer? I can watch it but I can't figure out where it's saved on my computer or what's its file format is. I don't want to have to watch it through an internet connection every time.

    http://www.keepvid.com

    Copy the URL of the video into the space provided on the page.

    It will give you a download link.

    Right-Click, Save Target(or Save Link) As..., and save it as "whatever.FLV"

    That makes it a Flash video file(not an SWF).

    Download VLC Player from VideoLAN.

    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html

    Right-Click on the file on your computer. Select Open With, and go to Choose Program...

    Click Browse...

    Navigate to the directory where you installed VLC, and click on vlc.exe.

    It will probably be in the default directory, which is:

    C:Program FilesVideoLANVLC

    Make sure to put a check box beside where it says "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file".

    Click Ok.

    You should be set to go.

    Just make sure that you always remember to change the File Name to .flv and make sure it is saving it as All Files, and not HTML Document(which it will probably have selected).

    And of course, when its posting online disappears, it's gone unless I save it somehow.
