1. You have to either put the URL into quotes or manually escape all the special shell characters. Read FAQ entry for details.
2. Provided example URL redirects to http://www.pearsonmylabandmastering.com/global/mymathlab-global/ where there are no videos available.
3. mymathlabglobal.com is not supported.

Sergey thanks, I thought a download probably wouldn't work, being a
for-profit thing that wants to hang on to it's IP.
But no harm testing, and no harm reporting to you guys, as is the open
source ethic.
regards Garry
