I'm using vsound for automated recordings of radio transmissions with actually higher values than 60; after, say, half an hour realplay then gets killed by another command from my script, so I don't have to do that manually (I haven't yet tried how good the »-a« switch works). > I'm trying here > > vsound -t -n realplay \ > rtsp://live-ra.dradio.de/live/deutschlandfunk/dlf_64k.rm > > > If I kill realplay after 60s, I really get a 60s audio file. > > Can you try that too and confirm me it's working ? This seems to depend on the version of RealPlayer. With a standard v8, it's working as you described. But with the current standard v10, the resulting audio file is only about one second long on my system. -- GPG key ID: 0x43891B76
