I'm looking for copies of the Olympic coverage. Something I can put in a DVD player. Does anyone have some? I found "capturing" it live, was pretty poor quality and had no sound. Does anyone have anything better?

By the time a woman realizes that her mother was right, she already has a daughter who's convinced she's wrong.
Can they be downloaded? I'm not a member but it doesn't look that way.

You just need a plugin for Firefox or some other flashplayer, but being a member doesn't matter.
For most fencing clips, no one owns them (or at least they don't make a fuss if they do), so they can sit on Youtube fine. With the Olympics, there might be a bit of a problem due to the NBC copyright. Youtube's been cracking down recently, so it's anyone's guess as to how long they would stay up.
That's why I want to download on a CD to play on a regular DVD player. I wasn't seeing any means of downloading.

You can download a free version of "Any Video Converter". It has a YouTube capture program: just paste the URL of the segment you want and download the file in .flv format. After that you can convert it into something playable mpeg, avi wmv etc...
It is also possible to join several small segments in to a longer piece.
I'm more than willing to screw NBC (I'm kind of an anti-capitalist, and with good reason), but NBC will screw my account if they catch me trying to upload Olympic videos yet again.
But I uploaded it anyway with inconspicuous titles. There's still a chance it'll be caught so try to view or download the videos soon.
If anyone is still unfamiliar with the YouTube high quality feature, make sure you find it and enable it (link is below the right-hand corner of the video).

Yeah, I thought it would be available already. I guess it takes a while to encode it in high quality. Within an hour or so I expect it to be there and it'll be much more watchable.
