I have saved the Quicktime version on my computer and watched it a bujillion times, but I want to save it as a 'REAL' document so I can then capture it with my Video Camera and copy it to VHS!
Straming blows!
: : right mouse click the link, and choose "save target as" and then you'll go through the regular download thingys and then it will be saved to your computer.
: on Wednesday (?) i did that and it worked. i did it to try to avoid my computer crashing as it can do when playing Quicktimes through IE. heh.
: But, yeah, try that. As far as i know, all Real movies stream so you can't save them, but some Quicktime stuff is saveable - like the .movs the trailer in question is available as, so that is good. if you clicked on the thing and it appears in yr browser (so you can watch some of it as the rest downloads), you can still save a copy of the file when it's finished downloading fully by looking in the 'Temporary Internet Files' folder and copying the .mov to another directory.
: i don't know all the ins and outs of this internetty stuff, but i think what i've written there above is pretty much true. :)
