Webinars
My OS is windows 7. Recently I missed a webinar and the organizer sent me a link to view the recorded webinar on the internet. it used the windows media player to play it. How do I record this webinar. I do not seem to see any controls on the media player for me to record this file onto my HD. Or must I use another method to do it. thank u

If you play it using realplayer (free from real.com) that will give you an option to record
But how, the link only gives me the file all ready to play in the Media player. How do I switch to real player.
if you right click on the link do you get an option to 'save target as' (depends on the email client and the actual email - should work if your using webmail which most email providers have)? or maybe instead of clicking on the link try copying it and pasting it into your web browswer it then may ask if you want to open or download it.
In answer to gaysmith, it only gives me a button, which says "View Recorded Seminar", and if I right click on this button, it only gives me the functions to Undo, Cut, copy paste,select all, BUT they are all greyed out. And when I click on the button, it straight away loads the file in Media Player. thank u for your response.
it's gavsmith not gaysmith thank you...
What email client are you using? It must be an html email if it has a button in it, in which case you can normally right click in a blank space and click on view source which would allow you to view what the button is pointing too.
Use VLC (free from www.videolan.org/vlc/)
Start the presentation in Media Player and right-click on the playing video and get the location URL. Copy the Location URL.
Start VLC
Select File->Open Network Stream
Select HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/MMS and paste the URL/Link
Select Stream/Save under Advanced Options and click on Settings
Select Outputs and Play locally and File
Select ASF as Encapsulationd Method
OK and VLC should start play and also capture the video to the file.

To gavsmith - my apologies for the typo. Just fancy that how a simple typo can alter the meaning so drastically. My apologies again.
No problem... did you manage to get your webinar video saved locally?
Can you post the link of the webinar?

As far as I know, there is no easy way to record encrypted streaming video.
