Hi there,

I've managed to embed the Media Player controls into a web page and got
a video to play in both stream form using streaming server and in
normal file form from a URL.

I'm trying to add a few extra features so that the user finds it easier
to watch the video, and I'm trying to find if they're possible or not.

1) Allow the user to save the video to the desktop while the video is
buffering / playing in the media player area? For example,. the user is
watching the video, but while the video is playing, the same stream is
saving to the user's computer/desktop/c: etc. Because we want the user
to have a copy of the video, it would make sense that what's buffering
should be saved locally on the user's machine..

2) Set a delay before the video starts to play. Because we are
downloading the video, it makes sense that we allow the video to
download for a while before we should play it, so that we don't get to
the end of the half-downloaded video prematurely.

Like I said, if what I'm asking is possible, please point me in the
correct direction

Thanks,

Steve Griff
