and can't find such links, not even with Page Info (as suggested by
Joachim); could it be they changed something in their site?
Well, neither could I. I suppose that the Beeb has decided to really
hide the actual content and this time did a bang up job as far as I can
tell. They seem to have gotten rid of the standalone player link on
their listen again player (though oddly BBC4 still has it and it is also
on the BBC Radio 2 listen live page) and that definitely puts a kink in
things. I tried viewing the source for each frame and that didn't show
anything useful, at least not that I could recognize. :-) I even looked
via ps for the running realplay in hopes that it would reveal some clue,
but got nothing useful.
well that somehow makes me feel better, 'cause I was starting to feel
stupid since I wasn't able to find no such links ;-)
In the end I was only able to succeed by accident. I tried the link in
epiphany and it gave me a popup complaining that totem could not open
the content, and in so doing told me the full file name. That turned
out to be rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio2/fridaymusic.ra?BBC-UID=a42\

I doubt that this could be reliably reproduced, though perhaps you may
have a broken install of epiphany too, and that could turn out to be a
good thing.
I'm trying the link you provided with the command
mplayer
"rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio2/fridaymusic.ra?BBC-UID=a426cbda207670378b86528c714caba3684a2b4fc040b101329203b36444a5b5&SSO2-UID='"
-vo null -vc null -ao pcm:file=/mnt/appo/musica/webber.wav
and it seems to work fine! :-)
by the way, isn't there a way to record directly in mp3 I suppose?
I do hope this is not the way that the BBC Radio people will be doing
things everywhere, as it is certainly a great deal less convenient.
Later I'll try with epiphany too... but why are you saying that it is
due to a broken install of epiphany?
thanks!
Lorenzo
