O/T Question for techies

Post by RockCharogne »

Is there any way of recording internet broadcasts such as Layla Jade's interview with Wankus on Tuesday - or indeed "Video on Demand" through any of the usual windows software ? Or does it just have to be enjoyed for the moment ?

As far as I know not if it,s streaming media, ie real player,
it would be unlikely to be anything else, there may be a way of burning it to cd as it,s playing, failing that take an audio lead from your pc to a cassette player. I,ll check some more!

There,s also a feature on windows media, (new version) that once
your connected to the web, will let you type the url, of the radio station in the r. hand corner, you can then choose to save the media file, hope some of this helps

There are programmes you can d/l that allow you to record streaming media including VOD. HiNet Recorder would be one such application. Streambox VCR another.

Obviously they aren't very popular with the content owners and I think they all work hard to detect thier use and prevent you recording the stuff (by blocking you where they detect their use), even where you've legitimately paid to view it.

Hey good news !
Upon talking with KSexRadio about the time difference...
Theyve said that i can more than likely get a copy of the show put onto CD, "live" so to speak...
Then if so, i will get it compressed, and put it up on the site, so anyone who wants to download it... Can ! ;-)
anyway... you are all still invited to stay up, and join me live of course....

Hi Lay

Sounds good to me - not sure I can cope with 330am (and even if I did, it's nice to keep a copy) - pity we can't do that with the Tera Patrick show - the phrase "Layla de-topped" - gave me a mental vision I'd sooner translate to reality!!

All the best

Rock

PS Stu - thanks for that - any idea where the download sites are for these ?

Ah-hah, then I hearby blame B Gates Esq.for allowing us to leave out the http:// when we key it in to our browser, since we now forget it when we do need it :-).

Thanks for the pointer, I will endeavour to remember in future.
