FLV Cache/Directory query

Using Vista at home (dunno wot flavor at the mo as I'm at work now - sorry).

I use Firefox browser.

I know that FLV streams I download are cached in a directory, in my case called
" C:\Users\GrazTreez\AppData\Local\FLVService "

Problem I have noticed is that after I have streamed several clips onto my PC, and then I go to view them, some are not there, ie the earliest ones I downloaded arent there.

The latest ones will be though. I can dbl-clik on those and see them ok.

Theory was that I would download a load of clips at once, then simply view them at a later time, but since some are not viewable now it appears I cant do this. They simply aren't listed in the directory.

Question is, if this cache of streamed clips is one bucket of a certain size, can I alter its size to be bigger ? OR, if it is not one size, can I alter this directory/cache spec to be a bigger size in any way so that it will take eg: 1Gb of data before starting to delete stuff ? OR, can I turn off the deleting process so it will all be saved, rubbish an'all ? HDD space isn't an issue. I have TB's spare.

I dont know if I'm talking browser (Firefox) or Windows or Flash size limitations here, so any pointers would be welcomed.


Many thanks.

What site are the clips from that aren't there?

Sites such as Seesaw, BBC iPlayer, ITV Player and 4od are all encrypted so you won't be able to do this.

Tom982 - Thanks for the reply.

I think the encryption factor is not relevant for me, as the clips I am downloading are not from mainstream and/or popular sites.

But I will commit this to memory for future use anyhow.

Thanks.

Pacinitaly - Thanks for your response also.

I already have Replay Media Catcher and other related programs for capturing and then viewing clips/flash movies downloaded , however none of these will get over the issue of the files not being there at all to view.

I'm guessing your suggested program attached (thanks for that too) will simply direct me to look at the directory that I am investigating in a 'hard' way anyway ?
