Slightly off-topic question: when was the last time a Soyuz spacecraft did a manual docking?

A VLC link would be most appreciated. None of the links posted so far are working for me. Plugin+browser issues in Chrome and FF.

Apologies - I thought that the footage shown was the live docking. It was in fact a replay of the automatic docking.

One question - which of the 3 taikonauts will do the first manual docking?

A question. If something went wrong and the Shenzhou was damaged during docking but the spacecraft was still able to dock with the Tiangong, what recuse options exist for the Taikonauts and how long could they stay up in the Tiangong?

Also would there be any spacecraft available anywhere (Spacex?) that could ferry up supplies (oxygen etc) at short notice until some sort of rescue craft could be arranged?

This link is working for me

http://www.cctv-9.com/2005/default.asp?videoName=live&videoSpeed=300


that link hits mms://4.71.37.8/cctv9-200 which works but is low res.

poked a couple of other 'rates' (300,400,480)... nothing.
