Frank-Michael,

Yes, thanks - I do already use the techniques that you quote, especially if I want to save a stream to disc, but I think that your post supports very well my assertion that it's a "real fiddle".

I was wondering if there was any way to do all this *without* all this cutting and pasting? My programming skills are rather weak as well as rusty, but this doesn't look too difficult to do...

BTW - this method still requires the Realplayer codecs of course. The only way AFAIK to obtain the latest ones legitimately is to download and install their player :-(

Maybe I can digg up some time to make a VLC LUA script. We have similiar scripts for Youtube for example: you provide exactly the URL you seen in your browser to VLC and it extracts on it's own the video stream from the html page. (give it a try.. works since the 0.9 series).

I'll try to give the BBC site a shot for this feature...

Great, please do. I'll be front of the queue to test it! -- Cheers Richard (MQ) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
