Thanks Peter. If anyone wants to try that program, it appears to work. Although the file in my case kept hanging on 99% downloaded and the beginning of it wouldn't play properly, you had to "jump start" it by moving the slider a bit to the right. I don't know if that's because of this one file, or typical with the program. -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kaulback" You must use a stream ripper to do what you want Clint, I have seen them work in Linux and I think this one, SDP, works fine in windows. http://sdp.ppona.com/ Peter Kaulback Clint Hamilton-PCWorks Admin-OrpheusComputing.com & ComputersCustomBuilt.com wrote: > Does anyone know of a way to actually save a .asx video file > ITSELF?
