How do I store video from VLC to a file?

I use Delphi and I need to capture video from IP camera and store it to a file. I use TVLCPlugin (ActiveX component from VLC). 

p: TVLCPlugin;
***
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  Options: OleVariant;
begin
  Options := ':sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=file,mux=asf,dst=D:\job\Camera\zzz.mpg}}';
  p.addTarget(
    'http://...', //MRI
    Options,
    VLCPlayListInsert, 0);
  p.play;
end;

So I can see video on the form, but it doesn't store it to the file. Can anyone help me to set the options correctly?

Thanks in advance!

Do you need to display the video feed? If you don't, you could just download the HTTP feed using one of the ways to do a HTTP request in Delphi, e.g. with Indy's TIdHTTP.
