Any pointer would be greatly appreciated.

The following may not be _the_ Feynman Lectures, but they are Feynman
Lectures
http://www.vega.org.uk/video/subseries/8
"A set of four priceless archival recordings from the University of Auckland
(New Zealand) of the outstanding Nobel prize-winning physicist Richard
Feynman - arguably the greatest science lecturer ever. Although the
recording is of modest technical quality the exceptional personal style and
unique delivery shine through."

And I actually managed to record these as AVI movies in Linux:
mencoder rtsp://139.184.80.33:7070/feynman/feynman1.rm -o photons.avi -oac lavc -ovc lavc
(use 2.rm etc. and other output filenames for the other ones).
I had to, because I paused the first one, and then it disconnected....
Now I can just search back forward in the recording.
Also now you can fullscreen it in mplayer.
Downloaded all at the same time....
:-)
If you do it that way, you get this:
total 1880690
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 409850990 2006-04-26 16:49 photons_corpuscles_of_light.avi
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 498147728 2006-04-26 16:58 what_where.avi
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 498481258 2006-04-26 17:19 fits_reflection_transmission.avi
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 517457346 2006-04-26 17:21 electrons_and_interactions.avi
Waited with posting untill I had all in.
Fits on a DVD for play in the PC.
Saves several hundred $ compared to their order disk link?
Gonna burn DVD now.
Some of these lectures are more then 90 minutes, so have not watched all yet.
Download seems to happen always at 25 fps... So if you have the bandwidth and do all
at the same time, saves 4 x in time.
