Hallo, juto aviten hat gesagt: // juto aviten wrote: In xmms, you go to Options/Preference->Input/Ouput and in Output you select "Disk Writer". Configure a directory for Output. Then open an URL and it will get saved to the directory you specified. You won't hear anything then, though. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__

The BBC trialled Ogg Vorbis/Icecast streaming but last thing I heard was that they weren't making it a permanent service yet. That means at the moment you've got to use RealPlayer, which I think intentionally disables streaming to hard disc in a feeble attempt at DRM. I guess you could intercept the audio on its way to the soundcard somehow. If you just want to test the software, try Virgin Radio which has a permanent high-quality Icecast service. If it's Radio 1 you're after specifically, you'll probably get better quality results using a good FM tuner connected to your soundcard, or maybe via a digital satellite TV service if you're not in the UK. I have a pretty fast IP over satellite broadband system which is good for 400-450kb on a typical connection, but I still get skips and breaks in the audio with RealPlayer - I don't with Icecast.

I can't seem to make mplayer access that url. There doesn't seem to be anyway to inform it that its an audio file, not video. Any clues before I hit the hay? Thanks, Tim
