Re: GetASFStream - Speed Settings


Out of curiosity i tried WM Recorder, mainly to see if its the Server. I really fail to see why you recommend that POS (Piece of Software)...It starts DLding with about 10k/s, goes up to 9% (thats nowhere near the 10min Limit), craps out, starts over, craps out, starts over...etc...etc, after 20min or so it had reached terrific 13% and i killed and uninstalled it.

Besides that problem, the interface is only slightly better than GAS. At least GAS has a Taskbar entry so i don't need to minimize 1000 other programs when I "lose" it. On top of that WM Recorder refused to accept any other target folder of my own choosing. When i restarted the program it had always reset itself to its default folder...

I can hardly see myself or any sane person pay 49 bux for this. Thats a pretty high price tag for a small util, for such a price i expect a program that works perfect in any aspect of its job.

BTW after i uninstalled it i grabbed the same stream with GAS, while it still only gives me 5k/s, at least it records the whole stream in one run, without hickup.

The best thing i saved for the end, now i get no sound in WMP plugin websites, the plugin acts as if it was playing, but there is NO SOUND.

I can't prove that WM Recorder did this, but it worked 1h ago. I hope a reboot will fix it.
I'll never complain about GAS again and won't look elsewhere ever again....
