I've found this works very nicely for BBC files (usually RealAudio).
Now I need to get an actual URL out of the Beeb. <sigh>
I thought there was a way to tap into the stream as it was coming in
Download the .ra file that the beeb puts up a link to, then open it in a text editor. In there will be the URL of the actual sound file.
HTH
Perfect John. I can get that from the recent shows section as the program (NorthAnger Abby) is going to be broadcast a few times. Many Thanks Mike
