So by this you mean having some application that traps the contents of the real player window and somehow saves it as (for example) mpeg? Anyone know of such an application? vsound does (a more sophisticated version of) this for sound alone, but these MIT lectures are real video. So disappointing --- it's really cool to see Gilbert Strang, but real player just keeps blowing chunks and wedging itself. Bad client, no donut. R
