I'm trying to get hold of a video from a site

http://www.getty.edu/conservation/publications/videos/seismic_gsap.html

And want to download the video. Looking at the source I can see the video file gci_gsap.swf but can't see where it's being called from.

I don't quite understand what you're saying?

http://www.getty.edu/conservation/publications/videos/gci_gsap.swf is the video...? called by:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
   var so = new SWFObject("gci_gsap.swf", "movie", "360", "360", "8", "#FFFFFF");
   so.write("flashcontent");
</script>

But where did it give you that address?? Couldn't see it myself.

Any ideas how I'd go about converting that to an avi or similar?

Your best bet would be to use a screen recorder to get rid of the buttons etc...

Alternative decompile the swf, or convert it directly.

Loads of trial apps out there.
