I have been working with Replay Media Catcher for about 24 hours, and it does a very good job of downloading and converting videos, but I have two questions.

1. Is it possible to start capturing a stream in the middle of a video and ending it before the end, or is it necessary to download the whole thing? I couldn't figure out how to do a partial download.

2. I am capturing video for use on my iPhone. The video I am trying to capture comes originally from an Italian TV broadcaster's web site. I have downloaded it from there, and I have compared it to versions of portions of the same video downloaded from YouTube. The quality I get in my downloads is inferior to the versions I have downloaded from YouTube using YouTubeDownloader. I have tried several, but not all, of the MP4 H.264 iPhone conversion options. Any suggestions?
