Then your network is better or nearer the source. Here I can't fill the buffer more that 40%, so it doesn't even start. Ah, the getvideo download saved nothing in two hours and a half, I just stopped it.
The file is at http://files1.novell.com/cached/video/microsoft/mswebcast.flv
The reason getvideo didn't save it is because it's loaded by javascript.
I had the following command running during two and a half hours, till I interrupted it:
cer@nimrodel:~/tmp/getvideo> getvideo http://files1.novell.com/cached/video/microsoft/mswebcast.flv Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/cer/bin/getvideo", line 34, in ? page = urllib.urlopen(url).read() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/socket.py", line 285, in read data = self._sock.recv(recv_size) KeyboardInterrupt cer@nimrodel:~/tmp/getvideo>
Ah. getvideo downloads objects parsed from html. I used it to save videos by handing it the url from my browser's location bar, which is faster than looking through ugly html and, in many cases, piecing the url together manually.
Handing it a url to the actual video will cause it to parse the file as html, which would result in a lot of grinding. :-)
If you already have the video url, wget is the appropriate utility.
