Usually Real Audio streams have .RAM, .SMI, .SMIL metafiles. Just sort the files by date and find file extensions you have no idea about. Then open them with a text editor and try to find the stream URL.

Real Audio streams URLs usually end up filename with .RA, .RM or .RAM extension.

You should look for .asx, .smi metafiles. It is safe to open them with a text editor like Windows Notepad.

Incidentally, for a particular recording, I got the following on the URL snooper:

http://64.94.235.125/QdZmq-LL/wm/fil...ra/Theharo.smi


http://205.134.247.2/QdZmq-LL/wm/fil...ra/Theharo.wma

if i copy paste the above in the browser URL address space and click, the player opens and starts the stream instead of bringing up the download dialogue box asking whether to open or save.

I tried getting the address from the .smil files and downloading from the address... But doesn't seem to work for me. (It downloads a .ra file of o bytes and when i open it with notepad it says

Cache: 404 file not found
Has the site policy changes? Can somebody offer some guidance?

Try to use a proper user-agent in your media stream recorder. Example of user-agent Windows Media Player player can use.
Code:

NSPlayer/9.0.0.2980
Or just download with software like WM Recorder.

Thanks buddy... But i was not trying to "record" the stream. I am attempting to do a direct file download, following the steps discussed in the posts in this thread. And when the file download is actually supposed to start, i get the file, but of 0 bytes size and containing the error message. Is there some setting that i can change to handle this..?

(I hope i am making sense. If not please feel to correct )

Everybody (including me) uses the word record as he likes so everything is a little bit confused. By recording here I meant downloading/capturing/ripping the stream. WM Recorder doesn't have direct sound recording feature.

Thanks a Ton, WM recorder seems to work for me (but for the fact that i have to reinstall the demo version after every 10 minutes of use).

Is there a freely available alternate?

Most media stream recorders support Windows Media streamed through HTTP. They might not be as good as WM Recorder, but should work with this stream.
