Save QuickTime 7 movies to disk
Authored by: genericuser on Jun 10, '05 01:48:52AM

For what it's worth, I've looked at the Shakira .mov parent posted an URL to.
Essentially it's a container that has embedded references to the actual stream, and to shakira's web site.

wget http://www.shakira.com/video/Shakira_LaTorturaVidFull.mov (or curl -o, curl is installed by default, wget I had to compile from source) to your hard drive from the command prompt as usual, and then run 'strings' on it.

Here is what I end up with:
stany@gilva:~/tmp[01:47 AM]$ strings Shakira_LaTorturaVidFull.mov | egrep -i 'http|url|www'
,href<http://www.shakira.com/> T<_blank>
url rtsp://qt.sony-global.speedera.net/qt.sony-global/Epic/Shakira/Shakira_LaTorturaVidFull_300.mov
url http://www.sonymusic.com/clips/selection/video_banner/Epic_Shakira.gif
stany@gilva:~/tmp[01:47 AM]$

Second URL is of course rtsp path to the actual stream.

Hope this helps.
