How do I capture streaming audio?

[Rob Kelk]

I want to capture one of the streaming audio feeds available at
<http://www.cbc.ca/listen/>. I'm running Win2K - what software do I
need?

(Also, how do I figure out what format those streams are in?)

If you right-click on the player while listening to a station and select
properties, you can find alot of information:

http://origin.www.cbc.ca/mrl2/livemedia

cbcr1-toronto.asx

<ASX VERSION="3.0">
<ENTRY>
<REF HREF="mms://wm05.nm.cbc.ca/cbcr1-toronto" />
</ENTRY>
</ASX>

Find out why CBC.ca uses Windows Media Player.

I used to have a prog. called Total Recorder. It records whatever sounds
your soundcard is making. Very useful freeware. Must get round to
finding it again.

Sorry it's shareware but you can record 40 sec. for free.

SDP will download Windows media player streams
http://sdp.ppona.com/

Doesn't currently support real audio, but I think there
was a recent thread in this NG about downloaders that
support real.

Url Snooper, a program written to help users locate the urls of audio and
video files so that they can be recorded.

Take a look at Absolute MP3 Recorder

ANY info on how this thing is supposed to work? I could find no info file,
no help file, on ERROR in attempting to record. Pushed every button,
tried every available option from the "source", "recording" and other
pull-down.
Still no go! What am I missing? TIA.

Set the Record Source to Stereo Mix, hit the Record button on Manual
recording then start the streaming sound source. Hit the Stop button
when finished, then to hear what you just recorded hit the Play button
in Last recording. The item you just recorded can be found in Windows
Explorer where you installed the program to under Recordings. I don't
use the timer so I can't help you there.

Thanks. I did ALL that. It said recording and the red recording turned red
and the numbers kept increaing.....then.... STOP....PLAY....= NOTHING!
It isn't in Windows Explorer.... supposedly it recorded something, but what
and where? Ahhhh.... no biggie. Just a test. I'll try again later or
find something
else. Thanks again.

That app looks great. Much needed. Will try it out although am not
sure sure if I have installed WinPcap in the past.

(ISTR some installtion problems I had on XP with something like
that.)

Streambox is good for this but I think it has stopped being
developed. There are many personal variants of STreambox in
circulation.

I think it deserved better than the mere "6" this site gives it:

Wincap is in the install of Url Snooper
