Downloading Baduk TV
Here I (,BramGo) will explain how to save BadukTV on your local hard disc. Do this at your own risk and only for personal usage. (Discussion of legalities on Discussion page). (In the text below each time I write "I use" I actually mean "if I had permission I would use".) If you are having problems, please leave a note or contact me on KGS (nickname: wuqingyuan). StreamDown
To do this I use a program called After you have installed the program just run it and click Add to start downloading the stream. You will need to fill in the URL, User, Password, Destination and Filename.
After you have done this click OK and the program will start downloading right away! When you want to stop downloading just select it in the list, click it with the right mouse button and click "Stop". Now the program has created an ASF file. How to Enable Fast ForwardGetting All the Software and CodecsAfter you have done this and you try to play the file you will notice that you can not fastforward it to another position of the clip. I have been trying to fix this for hours. Here is how I do it. StreamDown has encoded the ASF file with the WMV1 codec. It seems that this codec doesn't support fast forward. So we need to convert it to another codec. First of all you need to have the WMV1 decompressor codec or something like that. As far as I know there is only one way to get this. You need to install "Microsoft's Media Encoder version 7.1". Version 9 seems to give me errors, but 7.1 works fine. Just install the encoder, but we will not be using it. We will be using another program because when you use Microsoft Media Encoder to actually convert the files it will take hours and you lose a lot of quality.
You might also need the following file
The program I used to reencode is AsfTools v3.1. It's freeware and it's the easiest and most reliable program I found. Using AsfTools to Re-encode the ASF FileAsfTools is a small and easy program but still has a lot of features to repair files and stuff like that. First we need to repair the file. After all we stopped recording rather brutally by just hitting the "Stop" button, remember?
This won't take very long! But be sure to have enough diskspace. Test the file after you have done this and if it works, you can remove the previous version of the file. Now we can start reencoding!
Here I usually put the Audio on mono, and I decrease the image quality to get smoother motions. And then I start the reencoding! This takes about an hour, depending on the size of the file of course. I usually record one game at a time. Thats it! Notice that the new file will also be an ASF file, but this one you can forward to any part you like of the game. Greetings and have fun! BTW: it would be nice if somebody would be able to make subtitles. This is a copy of the living page "Downloading Baduk TV" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
