If someone can, you should figure out how to save just the video file and then post a link to that...I sorta want to save this and doubt that it'll be up on the Comedy Central site forever.

Search for it on youtube, it's probably already there :)

uhm, maybe not yet

[iago]

Wow, that's surprising. 

Well, I'm using a Linux video-player that can also rip to rip it right now.  Give me a few mins and I'll upload it.

<edit> 19mb so far, and still going.. maybe I'll just PM you a link to it later, it'll take me awhile to upload it to my server.  If I knew how to compress it I would, but I don't


<edit2>

everything done. Thank you for downloading a media file containing proprietary and patentend technology.
Core dumped ;)

It ended up being about26.7mb.  Give me about an hour to upload it to my server and I'll give you a link.

thnx dude

I compressed it with bzip2, which cuts the size in half.  Make sure you can extract a .bz2 file (WinRAR can, not sure about Winzip)

Gotta be a .tar.bz2.

Here's the link (it's done uploading):
http://www.javaop.com/~ron/tmp/dailyshow.asf.bz2

PLEASE only download it if you actually want it, if you just want to see it view it above.  Downloading a 12mb file slows down the for everybody.  At the very least, get it at night.  THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

And for future reference, if you're on Linux and want to rip a website/dvd, the command is:
$ mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile "filename.asf" http://blahblahblah
or
$ mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile "filename.vob" dvd://blahblahblah

I have no idea if it handles encrypted DVDs, and make sure the output filename matches the website's format (if you're not sure, just download it as whatever, and do "file filename.blah" to find out what it is:

ron@slayer:~$ file test.blah
test.blah: Microsoft ASF

Gotta be a .tar.bz2.

It's only a single file, so I didn't bother tarring it.  Can't WinRAR just open a .bz2?  I thought it could..

mplayer works in Windows too.

WinRAR can open just a bz2... unless my WinRAR just outdid itself..

Edit:  Okay.. it doesn't work.  Weird.

mplayer works in Windows too.

But it's not a typical Windows program, it's way more common on Linux/Unix.  If you want to rip/grab a movie on Windows, there are more popular options.

it doesnt seem to play......???

None that work as efficiently as mplayer for me. :(

Normally, an .asf file links to a file on the server. That's how I've seen it. :/

[iago]

Hmm, it plays fine for me, at least, it played fine before I uploaded it :-/

"file" says it's  .asf, so I'm assuming it is.  Try re-naming it to wmv or others, amybe?

[CrAz3D]

It openned but didnt play in Windows MEdia player as ASF.
after resaved as wmv it didnt open at all
