BBC Radio 1 (Annie Mac) Direct URL

Im trying to find the direct url to BBC Radio 1 Annie Mac's show which is on every Friday night. I used to have the link, but once I updated and reinstalled my media player (VCL player to stream and record), I lost the URL that I used to use.

Does anyone know the direct link to the stream? All I can find are the standard Radio1 streams.

Code:

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cp60693.live.edgefcs.net:1935/live" -a "live?auth=daEb3coa0b8a3bOaBd3deajbvdca_bMahdV-bopWLo-bWG-GppDCownKCnEuzH&aifp=v001&slist=Radio_1_Int@6440" -f "WIN 10,3,181,34" -W "http://www.bbc.co.uk/emp/ukrp/revisions/442826_430538_1/442826_430538_1_emp.swf" -p "http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_radio_one" -C O:1 -C O:0 -y "Radio_1_Int@6440?auth=daEb3coa0b8a3bOaBd3deajbvdca_bMahdV-bopWLo-bWG-GppDCownKCnEuzH&aifp=v001&slist=Radio_1_Int@6440" -o Radio_1_Int@6440.flv -v

Thanks for the link. Ive downloaded the programs and read that info in that link, but it isnt making any sense. I spent 3 hours last night trying to work out how it do it. Before hand, I just had a simple url to the stream that I entered into VCL. Ive never had to do all this. But im willing to learn, just need to find out how it all works first.

Listen Again link for BBC iPlayer page:

WMA link for pasting into Windows Media Player:

Note how the PID [8-digit Programme ID] is shoved into a url that is otherwise always the same, in order to construct an ASX link that plays, in effect, a Windows Media Audio [wma] stream -

http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/4/asx/b0144w74/iplayer_intl_stream_wma_uk_concrete

Any radio show on the BBC iplayer site at www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer can be played in Windows Media Player as an ASF/WMA stream, by simply replacing the red characters in that stream url with the 8-digit "Identifier", obtained from the Playlist page of the radio show in question.

Example: For the Annie Mac show, the playlist page says identifier="b0144w74"

I simply paste the completed stream url into my browser's url bar, and then click the bar's 'GO' button. My IE8 browser thereupon launches Windows Media Player, and it plays the stream.
