Script Summary: On player.omroep.nl-pages, this pops up a dialog when the player loads. You can copy-paste the contents to a shell (tested with Bash) to dump the videostream to the shell's CWD.

This script is not fit for general consumption - although installing it does no harm, you won't get much use out of it if you're:
- unfamiliar with using a shell
- a Windows user and unable/unwilling to do some extra work on a technical level beyond that which is reasonably expected of the wildtype Windows user
WARNING: ALWAYS REVIEW THE SHELL COMMAND BEFORE RUNNING IT. This script does basic escaping but it doesn't go to great lengths to validate whatever is sourced from player.omroep.nl; hence; player.omroep.nl might in some way, should you assist, run arbitrary code on your machine.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
This script makes it easier for you to make fair use of the video content on player.omroep.nl such as available through uitzendinggemist.nl . Please refrain from copyright infringement and use it only to exercise fair use.
- Easy to get to work on Gnu/Linux, BSD etc: install Bash and MPlayer with your package manager. You might have them installed already.
- Bit more work on Mac OS X: use Fink or MacPorts to install MPlayer.
- Even more work on Windows: use Cygwin or win-bash to get Bash; get an MPlayer port somewhere. Or upgrade to a more modern and featureful operating system such as GNU/Linux.
