It's a referrer thing, just copy and paste the address into a new tab/window and it'll work fine.

OK i have it now but i dont know how to use it or download the show. Also if i wanted to do it for another show eg Jo Whiley or Sara Cox how would i do that? Thanks for your help

[Dickie]

1. Open NetTransport, click new on the toolbar.

2. Copy the link corresponding to the date of the show you want to download:

Monday: rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/moyles_mon.ra
Tuesday: rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/moyles_tue.ra
Wednesday: rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/moyles_wed.ra
Thursday: rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/moyles_thu.ra
Friday: rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/moyles_fri.ra

3. Choose a location to save the file.

Click OK

Then you'll have a .ra file at around 40-50MB which you can play via RealPlayer (or RealAlternative as i've noticed you have Media Player Classic)

If you want to turn it into an MP3 use a free program like this one here.

i already have a switch software thing! Thanks for your help, do you know what the URL would be for other shows would i just have to change certain parts of the URL e.g.
rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/cox_sat.ra ???

[Dickie]

They vary and don't seem to follow a strict pattern but other people may be able to fill you in on finding out the streams, this is a Moyles fansite so we dont have any others lying about.

[Capes]

OK thanks for your help, much appreciated!

[Capes]

that link you gave me will only convert 1/3 of the file, are there any more around that will convert rm to mp3

[Console]

Is there a way of doing this on an apple mac??

[Fathomer]

Is there not a way of recording shows onto Mac OS what programmes I use etc.?

[Console]

I'm fairly certain that there are hundreds of ways to record audio on a Mac, but as I don't have one, I can't really point you to anywhere else other than google.

Edit: By 'recording shows' do you means actually recording a live broadcast, or download the 'Listen Again' stream?

[Fathomer]

download the listen again show so I can listen to the odd R1 Show on my IPod.

[Console]

Take a look at this thread (specifically my first post):-

http://www.chrismoyles.co.uk/phpBB2/vie ... hp?t=11494

MPlayer is FOSS, and I think a version that has been compiled for the Mac is available here:-

http://mplayerosx.sourceforge.net/

[Fathomer]

that seems to be working great. However! I go to "open location" paste the rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/moyles_mon.ra link in. Then it seems to be getting down to business but then just stops. It says "buffering" and the whole thig disappears back to the empty player without telling me why...anyone got any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

[Console]

I assume you're using the GUI, so I suggest that you use the CLI version and see if it gives you any more information.

[glennjpeace]

I use a program called hidownload....it's really good. Theres a 30 day trial....but even when you pay for it. the tools it has are amazing so it's worth it!

[Console]

Is HiDownload a Mac program, because I think it's exclusively for Windows?

[Winatron]

When i try and download it on the net transport program it says- Alert: 23;This server is not configured to play the data type you requested. Please contact the Real Server Administrator for assistance.

Any clues on how to fix this?

[Console]

Are you using the correct URL to download from?

[Winatron]

Cheers man, i got i workin but i cant convert them to mp3 now, the programs i downloaded doesnt really work.

Man, working out what the stream URLs are can be difficult sometimes! I'm trying to turn
http://www.bbc.co.uk/proms/2007/rams/prom51.ram
into a downloadable stream URL like our usual Moyles ones. I can do it for any Radio 1 show nowadays, but this is proving much tougher! Any advise, folks?

[Mcqueen_]

Save the file and change the .ram to .txt, open it and the url is there. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

[Console]

Look inside the file, it'll tell you. From memory the only thing that file contains in the url for the stream.
