Record Real Media Stream
 

I am trying to record some Real Media Streams from the KQED archive so
that I can listen to it in my car when driving home. Here is a link to
one such stream:

http://www.kqed.org/.stream/real/rad...a-forum.rm.ram

When put this link into my webbrowser it loads up the Real Media
Player and streams the show. Now I tried to capture this show with
NetTransport by setting the URL to that address. Unfortunately, it
downloads not the right thing but only some file with the size of 210
bytes.

How can I capture this stream? What other free software is out there
that can record Real Media Streams?

Thanks a lot,

Rob

Not free, but TotalRecorder will record anything you can play through your
sound card.

I wanted to do that at one time, and someone referred me to the
program Total Recorder. It isn't free but it's pretty cheap.But
I'm cheaper and I didn't buy it. You can download a free trial
version that will let you record for a trivially short amout of
time so you can't acutally get any use out of it but can see
how it works. The advanced edition even lets you schedule a
recording of a streaming program unattended. If it will work
on your computer (it's Windoze) you might want to check it out.

And ReplayRadio is programmable to schedule such recordings.

I have registered and used both, and prefer the latter.

Open your mixer, select Options|Properties|Recording and be sure
stereo mixer is checked. Click OK and select Stereo mixer. Any
recorder should now record what ever comes out of the sound card.

If you have a full duplex sound card with digital in and out, put a patch
cord between it's digital out and it's digital in..... Send the Real Audio
to digital out... Use any program you like to record the signal from the
digital in...

Hmm,

Out of curiosity, does anyone know of a realtime realaudio converter?

From a realaudio stream to something you can store, I imagine :-)

If you can hear it, you can record it. Run some program that records
a wav while playing the realaudio stream. If you've set up the right
Record source in your soundcard's mixer (probably found in the system
tray), you'll get a recording.

Windows\ Audio recorder will do. there are many more elegant
programs, from freeware upwards.

No from live audio, say at a conference, to realAudio soyou can stream live
to the web?

I know there are hardware codecs for some formats that do realtime
conversion (minus latency), but is there a software or harware codec that
ctakes live audio and converts it in realtime to the RealAudio format?

I think for that you'd have to get the encoding/streaming software from
RealAudio. It's been 4 or 5 years since I looked into it, and at that time
they offered a simple basic one for free. Check their website.

Jetaudio will create the .rm (.ra) files for you. The Plus version contains
Jetcast for internet broadcast. May help ?

I am using Super Mp3 Recorder at http://www.supermp3recorder.com and it's helpful.

Get Total Recorder from www.highcriteria.com for the princely sum of
$12. It'll even create your MP3 for you on-the-fly, ready for playing
on any MP3 player in any speed you can think of.

Total Recorder is like a proxy server for your sound card. Any
software that sends data to the soundcard can be easily ripped to a
file. It also works the other way. Audio sources plugged into your
soundcard, converted by the soundcard to wav are also ripped.

Because the soundcard must have unencrypted wav audio, there's no
hacking around it. I listen to my favorite BBC programmes in my car
on my Archos hard drive MP3 player, here. Works great!

UPgrades for life are free with your princely $12 subscription.
They'll email you when there's an upgrade. It does a lot of more
things since I first bought it....(c;

No, no, Scotty! I said, "Beam me a wrench.", not a WENCH!
Kirk Out.....

I'd like to get back to Nettransport, hope you guys can help me.
Has anyone tried to use it with a proxy?
I tried to download through a
proxy . I added the proxy, but when
I tried to validate it with HTTP Connect it could not
connect to the www.microsoft.com. If I chose HTTPGet
it works ok. If I configure this proxy in the IE6.0 it
works perfectly ok. Also, if I try to download a file
configuring this proxy in Other SettingsProxySingle
Proxy it can not connect. If I use direct Connection,
everything works ok.
What am I doing wrong? How can I make it download
through a proxy?
Thanks in advance.

Can this "Total Recorder" truly Rip? That is, does it intercept the digital
data going to the sound card?

Yes. I use Total Recorder to rip BBC programmes to MP3s on-the-fly
all the time. BBC's players are java-downloaded media players in
webpages.....but, alas, to hear them they MUST send wav data to the
soundcard, through the Total Recorder proxy engine, which acts like a
T in a pipe.....(c;

A 700MB CDR will play 10-12 hours of BBC Radio (insert number here) if
you just let it run. Why do you think the copyright moguls are so
intent on making it illegal to broadcast over any internet radio
station?.....(c;

Great buy at so cheap a price.....with lifetime free upgrades, too!
Every time Total Recorder comes out with a new version, I get an email
to go get it on my license.

Any recorder will work. Just set the record source to Stereo Mixer
(whatever is set up on playback volume control) and record with
whatever tool you wish. I use CoolEdit, and save as mp3.
