How can I download streaming video which RealPlayer downloader won't work with?

Hello

I often like to take a recording of sales videos and other streaming items for later review (sometimes I might review it later when I'm out and about without an internet connection).

Many videos seem to be easy to download using the latest version of RealPlayer, or alternatively the Sothink video downloader for Firefox. I also have a product called Cam Video Downloader which works for most Camtasia videos.

However, I am coming across more and more videos for which none of these solutions works (RealPlayer displays a message like "This video cannot be downloaded from this site" or something similar". I'm not sure, but I think it may possibly be due to the way teh page is encoded (with Javascript??).

A recent example was the pre-sales and sales video for Jeff Walker's "Product Launch Manager".

Obviously Camtasia is an option for recording off the screen, but this is in real time, so is very slow.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
