I wanted to bring the Macworld Keynote to a buddy<\/a> of mine who’s in a nursing home right now. He doesn’t have internet access there, so I thought I’d just bring it to him by saving a stream from Quicktime… Quicktime doesn’t allow for such shenanigans, but the venerable VLC<\/a> does.<\/p>\n

To do this, fire up VLC, and open the stream for this year’s keynote by choosing “File->Open Network…” and enter the address of the stream: “http:\/\/stream.qtv.apple.com\/events\/jan\/j47d52oo\/m_8848125_650_ref.mov”. Test the stream by playing it. Nice…<\/p>\n

Let’s use the Streaming\/Exporting Wizard to save the stream. Press “Apple+Shift+W” to launch the Streaming\/Exporting Wizard and then select “Transcode\/Save to file” and click “Next”.<\/p>\n

\"Streaming<\/p>\n

Click “Existing playlist item” and select the stream in the window below followed by clicking “Next” to continue.<\/p>\n

\"Streaming<\/p>\n

On the next screen, just click “Next” to continue, leaving both options blank.<\/p>\n

\"Streaming<\/p>\n

Leave “MPEG PS” selected and click “Next” to continue.<\/p>\n

\"Streaming<\/p>\n

Name the stream what you want it called and click “Next” to continue.<\/p>\n

\"Streaming<\/p>\n

Click “Finish” to begin downloading the stream.<\/p>\n

\"Streaming<\/p>\n

It should download at the pace of your connection, I believe, but mine only came down at real-time – maybe due to traffic…<\/p>\n
