Using Stream Transport to record from Amazon, Netflix
Quote:
That's what I 've been using and its amazing. Here's a little tip Head on over to Amazon.com's VOD site ... you will notice it's a pay site where you can Buy individual episodes or complete seasons but it allows you to view a two minute clip of what you want to buy. Well when you click on the link in your regular browser the video does indeed Stop after 2 minutes. But on your streamtransport browser that same episode link is the Complete Episode!! And you save it for free!! Since it is a pay site and you are taking somethinhg you should be paying for I suggest you use something like hotspot shield to hide your true location :) happy downloading |
p.s.
Can someone try it on netflix's streaming? Our version of netflix in Canada is a liitle different still, they do not offer episode or movie streaming I was wondering if its anything like amazon's VOD service with some kind of preview? Try this software on other VOD sites and see what happens and please report your findings |
thanks ill try this one. I wish i could record itunes tv shows.

For proof of concept, I tried to use Stream Transport on an Amazon episode of Batman the Brave and the Bold, the second season two-part Starro Pt1. It didn't work.
I tried it on the 1954 Dragnet movie, too. Failed there, too. |

I'm trying the Brave and the Bold episode right now and it seems to be working just fine ....
This is the URL I pasted in the StreamTransport Browser http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003XXHZMC When the page loads hit the "Play Free Preview" Button and you should see the download link in the bottom half window (Note: I'm doing this behind Hotspot Shield because the site won't work with a Canadian IP) episode is 23:02 in length resolution 704 x 396 Attachment 972 |
joker, did as you suggested with hotspot shield & transport stream.
but i don't get the download link in transport stream. so, what do i have to do to get that download link? thanks. |
you have to manually copy & paste the url in the Stream Transport browser (top) and hit the enter button. (NOT the start button)
You may have to try it 2 or 3 times before the URL you want is accepted on the Stream Transport Browser. Make sure to erase everything that's there first and post the URL (for this Batman episode http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003XXHZMC ) |
ok will give that a shot. ta.

I tried it again, but it doesn't work. Perhaps you have an older/special version? Oh well, that's probably for the best anyway. Hulu is free to view, so I don't see the harm in putting it on a disc so I can see it larger than 19" -- but taking files from Amazon isn't really the same.
Probably not the best topic to discuss in public. Interesting topic, but maybe inappropriate. Closing this one. Sorry. |
