download audio streamed by JWPlayer

[anctop]

Hello,

I'm new in this forum & a novice in matters with streaming.
Recently I come across a couple of radio programmes on the www and I want to save a local copy of them, but enormous difficulties are encountered.

The site uses JWPlayer to stream multimedia contents. Here is a sample URL :

http://programme.rthk.hk/channel/rad...channel=radio4

The URL indicates that the audio should be an MP3, but in fact the player plays an .m3u8 :

http://stmw1.rthk.hk/aod/_definst_/r.../playlist.m3u8

and this .m3u8 directs to another .m3u8 :

http://stmw1.rthk.hk/aod/_definst_/r...061855960.m3u8

This last .m3u8 is a playlist with over 700 entries of .ts files :

http://stmw1.rthk.hk/aod/_definst_/r...061855960_0.ts
http://stmw1.rthk.hk/aod/_definst_/r...061855960_1.ts
http://stmw1.rthk.hk/aod/_definst_/r...061855960_2.ts
....

Since the URL's are known, I've retrieved a few of them, but none of these .ts files can be opened by local players (e.g. VLC). The file types of the .ts files are reported as :

media_w2061855960_0.ts: MPEG transport stream data
media_w2061855960_1.ts: TeX font metric data
media_w2061855960_2.ts: TeX font metric data
media_w2061855960_3.ts: data
media_w2061855960_4.ts: data
....

I've also tried to download using some Firefox add-on, but the stream keeps generating new entries with identical names instead of a single target.

I guess the .ts files are the fragments of the original MP3.
Even though I am patient enough to retrieve all such .ts files named in the playlist, the problem remains how to sew them together ? or is there any better way to download the programme as a single clip ?
