vsound *may* be able to do what you want - I've used it with a .ra file
but never with a live feed - .ram. The url is in the posting below by
Erik de Castro who patched vsound for the G2 player

Good luck,

Jesse McDonnell

patch for vsound for the G2 player:

   Hi all,
   
   I have released a patch to the vsound program which allows it to work
   with the G2 RealPlayer.
   
   The original freshmeat announcement was:
   
   "VSound is a sort of like a `virtual audio loopback cable'. That
   is, it allows you to record the output audio stream of a program
   (similar to connecting a loopback cable to the line in and line
   out jacks on the sound card, and recording the sound from the line
   in jack, but without the DA/AD conversion losses). One possible
   use for this application is as part of a RealAudio to wav file
   converter."
   
   I have set up a web page for the patch here:
   
   http://www.zip.com.au/~erikd/vsound/
   
   which has a pointer to the original vsound program (and a local copy)
   as well as a simple explanation of how it works.
   
   Enjoy,
   Erik

well - i have tried it but all that is saved is a small text file with an
URL to a real *.rm file ("pnm://.rm") and because its a realtime radio
broadcast i doubt the actual file exists at all ...

Nope. Not that I am aware of. OTOH, you CAN right-click on
the RAM file and select "save as" and save it to disk
instead of hearing it. :-) Then, you *may* be able to

[expert] saving real audio ....

2000-06-07 Thread RNDr. Peter FREIMANN

I hope someone can help me with the following problem ...

I am running LM 7.0 and I need to process a few minutes of daily
broadcasting from Real Audio source - I know I could run realplayer for
linux and capture the audio signal using my sound card but I wonder if there
is a more straighforward solution to get the audio signal on my hard disk in
a standard audio format ...

p.f.
