This what I do when I do when I want to capture a streaming video/audio file. There are a few free streaming audio recorders out there. Use them if you just want to record an audio that is streaming over the net. I have a SBLive card that came with LiveWare and has a nice recorder. I just tell it to record sound coming out of my speakers. For video I played around with a software that allows you to record your desktop screen for purposes of teaching people how to navigate around windows and such (just do search for screen recorder). It basically does captures but it can be set to do 30frames/sec captures of any sized window or a whole screen but you'll need a fast cpu to do large captures at 30frames/sec. I've used one, can't remember the name, to do video of songs that I recorded off of www.digitallyimported.com . I recorded the visualizations off of winamp, sonique or media player. It saves as an AVI file so you can convert to whatever format you want with the right converter.

Edit: I oh forgot, I did try to record a streaming video file and it didn't work. It just recorded a blank picture.

This isn't streamed and there is no url, the file will only play with the proprietary media player included.

Anybody tried using Fraps to record? It just suddenly hit me while I'm sitting here at work, and not got access to my home PC with it installed

I must say, it's got some good taste!

Installed it yesterday morning, and it's already downloaded Electric Six - Dance Commander, brilliant tune, and funny video! It reminds me so much of exactly what one of my friends would do! I was watching it with my GF this morning and said "that is so Sam" and she could only agree!!

Anyone else having a problem with it hanging on the "The TVTonic Guide Is Loading.." page? The progress bar (periods in the status bar) get almost 2/3's of the way then stop. I've left it two different time for hours and still nothing.

I also have that problem sometimes. Like I said, the software is a little buggy. Sometimes I get script errors or entire screens of pink instead of video (overlay problem). Ok, so it's a LOT buggy

Sometimes part of the Wavexpress software doesn't completely initiate after you reboot or login. To fix: right click the wavexpress icon in the systray and then start any "service" that hasn't started. I usually find the last 2 need to be manually started like this. I don't complain cause it's free, but I deffinately would if I were paying for a subscription.

Anybody tried it in the car yet???

The biggest bug I found is when launching it from the cache icon in my computer, launches and works fine, but on exit it crashes explorer(doesn't register anything, but explorer stays up) then I have to restart explorer

Err...yeah, i found that also

However, using FRAPS works to capture the video

All I need to do is get it to not crash again long enough to capture the audio, then splice them together

can you keep them synced ....

Well Fraps slowed down the video playback when it was recording and the final outcome will be 30fps dead. Hopefully with a bit of clever editing, I can get the two to keep sync perfectly, just need to get it to start at the right time to start with

Will let you know how I get on
