Does anyone know how to download from links that connect to the BBC radio player?

These files are not Real media amd Streambox has no rtsp:\\ to use. "Save target as..." on the link produces .htm files which contain the insdtruction below.

Any advice gratefully received.

Hi Keefs

Yeah, it is difficult - the link Veblin posted - http://p084.ezboard.com/bstreemeboxvcr - has loads of info - serach for BBC.

I've tried following the instructions, but all examples seem to make an unexplained leap that I can't follow - if you can figure it out step by step please post it here.

If you're interested, the easiest method for BBC links seems to be:
1. "Save target as" on the link
2. Open the resulting htm file with note pad. Scan thru until you
find the program identifier/partial url (in my case:
radio2/aod.shtml?radio2/r2_parsonsnaylor)
3. Prerfix the last part with: rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/
e.g. rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio2/r2_parsonsnaylor.ra

I tried this on few options and it seems to world fine with streambox.

Good luck

Streambox VCR Suite

Don't let the VCR part fool you - it has two parts - a download manager for real meadi streams and a ripper/converter.

Do you want to share the secret of extracting the rtsp:\\ address?

Good. At least someone read something.

You could take the time to learn how to manually get the stream URL's. A very good and needed skill. I do it all the time, just to stay good at it. Or you could use a very easy way, something like Project URL Snooper.

I've just spent some time trying all the options that Veblin has suggested, and I've firmly established that I haven't got a clue how to downloaed from Kiss.

But I'm very interested to see what the solution is. Veblin?

Incidently Keefs, if you've downloaded Streambox you might want to look at
http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/65016
for some advice on Realplayer10/codecs.

It should save you some agrovation.
