Is there a easy way to recover a light box video maybe out of cache so that we can watch it again later. Not looking for a way to pirate just a way to preserve special items for later viewing

Why would you need to? It's not like the episodes are only available for a limited time.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Not sure if anyone actually answered the question, so here goes: No. The silverlight player is designed explicitly to make it impossible to extract video from it.

Obviously, it's not "impossible". You could probably get a crap recording via screen recording. And, of course, there is no doubt a way to crack the encryption - but nobody has discovered it yet, and if discovered, it will be patched quick smart. This isn't a physical format where the exploits are unpatchable due to backwards compatibility.

So yeah - if you need to, just pirate it. Use a VPN and nobody will go after you. Keep your lightbox subscription active to keep your conscience happy if you need to.
