Can't answer your question, but there are java videos? Had no clue.

Well here is an example

Well I dont want to download it exactly I just want to be able to watch it offline

Well, it's an applet containing some sort of video file.

1) Browse the source for the URL to the jar: jars/UWTransp.jar
2) add that to the page path URL: http://viscog.beckman.uiuc.edu/grafs/demos/jars/UWTransp.jar
3) Download jar and rename to zip
4) Open zip and extract the biggest file
5) Now you just need to figure out how to play it

edit: apparently the stream is cinepak (ew!) but I can't figure out the container format; vlc won't play it and it will play anything it supports even if it has the wrong extension

why not execute the jar offline? (in a command line window : java -jar UWTransp.jar)

Well I dont want to download it exactly I just want to be able to watch it offline

I think it would be easier to just download it than to try to watch it offline without downloading it...


Seriously: If executing the jar offline doesn't work - try the appletviewer command line tool (its included at least in the JDK, and IIRC in the JRE as well)
