Thus the fact (which I have determined) that streaming media really sux.

Even a little program I wrote doesn't work to grab it.
To DL the movie, you will have to gain exclusive access to the UCLA server that the movie is hosted on from what I can tell.

But then again..
I'm not sure about QT files. Maye someone else can help you better.

THanks for your help.... anyone else able to capture this video for me?
