Can you Record Streaming Video?

Thanks again for reply.

Do you mean a screen capture tool?Isn't there some way of catching the
"feed" of presumably "0" and "1" 's before they hit the actual screen,say
like a video capture card might or a VCR (you don't have to have the screen
on whereas a screen capture tool apparently copies the images literally off
the screen)?

Similarly I am puzzled why you can't d/load the file/images like you can a
web page i.e. client program accesses server and somehow does so.

I have camstudio,a freeware screen capture tool,but the quality of the
captured avi is about half of the original.Are there ones that reproduce
same quality?
