Getting the quicktime URL off iFilm...

I'd like to add some music videos to a scripted DVD player I'm working on, akin to, well, pretty much every other DVD player sold in SL.

Problem is, I can't get the URL to the quicktime version of a video. Say the URL to the page hosting the video is:
http://www.ifilm.com/video/2791371
...a fine 1980s video. From what I've seen, I should be able to view it at
http://download.ifilm.com/qt/portal/2791371_200.mov
...but it doesn't work.

I've checked a dozen Firefox extensions. All of them give me the FLV, not the MOV.

How do I get the right URL?

I dont see anywhere on here for any download options. Quicktime is not Flash. Where specifically are you finding a quicktime download option?

I'm not. Let me explain more.

Like Youtube and Google video, there are tricks using javascript, etc to get a URL directly to the video file which you can then download and play on your own computer. It's just a matter of figuring out what the direct link URL is. In iFilm's case, you use URLs like the above to get a quicktime version even though they don't offer one to the public.

Problem is, it doesn't seem to work for ALL ifilm videos -- just the ones I've found so far running about SL and gleaning from people's Sl-DVD players and such. So there has to be a trick to it beyond just replacing the number.

Someone's gotta know this. How else would the dozens of DVD players in SL that use iFilm work? I'm praying SOMEONE out there who knows reads this thread and lets us in on the secret...

Perhaps not EVERYTHING at iFilm is in Quicktime?
Perhaps SOME things are in Microsoft WMV, or Realplayer, or even SHOCKWAVE!
and then iFilm converts from the original format into FLASH for playing on your PC in a FLASHPLAYER web browser window.
Or perhaps, iFilm is closing off the loop hole that let you bypass their advertising.

lots of videos online aren't in typical video formats. to cut down on space, many videos are recoded into FLV (flash video), which cuts the file size considerably. the only way to find the name of the file would be to dig through the HTML source code and look for where the actual file is refrenced. only a handful of video sites still use QT for videos.

I know all these things. What I was asking was why some files on iFilm can be quicktime-linked and others not.

Anyway, it doesn't matter anymore; download.ifilm.com no longer exists, as far as I can tell. Every DVD player in SL that played music videos just broke. So, they closed off the loophole completely. I'll have to rework my project or abandon it.

Browsing Google, I found this, it might help
