You need to use WM Recorder in the PRO mode to capture packets from Windows Media Player and Real Player. WMR is very popular, so can find many complains. Stream Ripper does support for WMR, I visit Applian User Forums and we can tell you for sure that most of the problems with WMR and Applian recording software can be easily solved by reading the user guides. WMR may have problems with RTMP protocol which should be solved in the next version. As for recording from Windows Media Player and Real Player, WMR is the most powerful tool for that.

You can also use WebVideoCap to capture packets from Windows Media Player.

sniffers can be detected. i was more or less, curious if someone knew a way around it.
They can be detected by software on your computer. They can be detected by an admin of your network if he/she can log in to your computer. Some of them can be detected by the admin of a LAN by using detection software.

I really didn't pay enough attention to the question. This is because most media streams don't come from a LAN, so one doesn't need to worry about him/her using network sniffers.
