How to get base filename without query portion?

Given a file path URL such as http://example.com/video.flv?start=5, I want to get out video.flv.

Path.GetFileName("http://example.com/video.flv?start=5") yields video.flv?start=5, which is more than I want. I can't find anything relevant in the Uri class either. Am I missing something?

Using Uri.AbsolutePath I was able to achieve the desired results.

Uri t = new Uri("http://example.com/video.flv?start=5");
Console.WriteLine(t.AbsolutePath);
Console.ReadLine();

printed /video.flv

Various ways, but one option:

new Uri("http://example.com/video.flv?start=5").Segments.Last()
