I have suggested to Wolfram for some time that these seminars be made  
available for download (Quicktime is my preferred format), and I think  
that they are considering it. Other than the developer Q&A, most of  
the seminars are the same. There are also streaming videos on the  
Wolfram website that would be more useful if made downloadable.

Failing that, I think that SnapzXPro (on the Mac) will do the job. I  
use it to capture streaming video and it can handle at least 45  
minutes worth. You need to get the license that covers video capture,  
and have a lot of free disk space. The conversion step is relatively  
CPU intensive. I just got it recently, and I'm going to test it on the  
next Wolfram seminar. I wouldn't think it was OK to upload or  
distribute any captured video. I think it is like using the old-style  
video tape to timeshift over the air TV.
