You can not magically download all movies/images from a 
website; the program needs to have a way to "discover" them 
all.  This generally means excluding everything you do not 
want, then allowing pages to be mirrored and allowing the 
filetypes you DO want.

That HTTrack is still getting html pages suggests that the 
site may not have .htm or .html URLs--perhaps ASP or PHP?
