    Hello,

    I recently captured a live video stream of an event using HiDownload. It was Apple Quicktime over rtsp. However, now if I take the output and attempt to review it (regardless of the software I use: virtualdub+avisynth, quicktime, etc.), I can't get it to play.

    Does anyone know:
    1) What the container is for quicktime streams (MOV and MP4 aren't appearing to be valid)?
    2) How to determine the codecs used?


    Thanks very much!

    Matt

    Download gspot and use it to find the info you seek.

    Couldn't find the gspot. Looks like it might be totally corrupt. Humm... any other ideas?
