If you??™re using Firefox or SeaMonkey, right-click an empty area of the
web page and select View Page Info. Click the Media tab, and then
scroll down the list until you see the URL of the video, which is often
the only entry that isn??™t an image file (.jpg, .gif, etc.).
Firefox and SeaMonkey users can also use the AdBlock Plus
extension, described in the Apple QuickTime portion of this
section, to get the URL of an embedded Media Player video
file.
If you??™re using Internet Explorer, right-click an empty area of the web
page and select View Source (this works in Firefox and SeaMonkey,
too); some familiarity with HTML will make this task much easier.
Press Ctrl-F and search the code for text that would likely appear in a
video clip URL, such as .asf, .asx, .wmv, or rstp:. Somewhere in the
code, you??™ll hopefully find a full (or partial) URL for the source video clip
that looks something like rstp://www.some.server/videos/penguin.asx.
If you??™re lucky enough to find the URL, you can proceed to download it
by following the instructions for Real Player, previously in this section.
Otherwise, you may be out of luck.
Sound and Music
Microsoft revamped the audio subsystem in Windows Vista in order to solve
a series of problems it maintains caused stability and quality shortcomings
in earlier versions. For one, Microsoft moved most of the code that handles
sound out of the drivers and into another echelon of Vista??™s architecture.
