The UK Babe Channels Forum

hey guys,

been a lurker for a long time, just thought about trying to cap a show or two (from webstreams only, i don't even have a tv anymore)

now i appear to have run into a slight hitch.

i was testing eariler using orbit grab++ or something like that (with the sassytv stream)
all with the same .flv extension

now it failed the first time, file unreadable, i thought this could be due to over 200mb file size
2nd time, let it run for a shorter time, works fine, and 3rd,4th and 5th. (all upto about 100mb)
6th time (ran it same length as 2 3 4 & 5) fail again

checked the files in mediacoder, the working ones obviously contain the correct information, the failures just say its an flv container, no other information. and fail on attempted transpose saying "no output..blah"

anyways, i guess what i really want is a suggestion for software that is more reliable than orbit, but still free, as i'm broke

if you can't tell, im new to this whole thing, hell i only found out a few months back you could rip youtube videos


also, many thanks to all who keep this community going, and all girls involved in the shows
cheers all

p.s. if i've been blind and missed a thread that holds this information, feel free to slap me sensible

Welcome. There's a thread in the tech section that suggests a number of different applications. Not sure if any of the suggested PC ones are free...

cheers skateguy (and all who posted suggestions in that thread, short on time, off out in a minute)

sorry was in wrong section, i'm getting used to being an idiot these days, along with being blind
a few pieces of software mentioned are free, i'll give some of those a try, and anything i cap that is worth keeping i will try and share

any suggestions on file sizes, formats and length ?

What software do you use to capture the webshows??
