Description Giovanni Venturi 2004-12-29 00:36:18 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.3.90 (alpha1, CVS >= 20041206), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.10

Which is the correct way for recording a streaming? I cannot record from http://musica.virgilio.it/multimedia/goldrake_video/adsl/index.html
It's an ASX. I never used the record with KMplayer, so I click on the record button than I click on "Start recording" button. I selected Xine for playing and ffmpeg for record. I've got them installed correctly on the system.

CVS commit by vriezen: 

Also read text/plain mimes and make mplayer handle 
http://musica.virgilio.it/multimedia/goldrake_video/adsl/index.html too.

This asx contains the url
mms://media.tin.it/users/matrix/nettv/caraturo/goldrake_adsl.wmv
which was properly found with Xine (I fixed it, so MPlayer should handle this too). When you start recording, it jumps to the first playable url in the ASX, that's the mms://...wmv url. 
Most likely in your config is ffmpeg as recorder. You better choose either mencoder or 'mplayer -dumpstream', because ffmpeg is limited wrt. its input (and I think mms:// is not supported by ffmpeg).

Does this help, can you record now?
Comment 3 Giovanni Venturi 2004-12-29 20:10:05 UTC
Oh, yes. With ffmpeg I can't get it, but with MEncoder I get it. Is it 
difficult to get a response with KMplayer? For example, if I get an error 
with ffmpeg because it cannot record that kind of stream can't KMplayer try 
for MPlayer or MEncoder or tell user: "Sorry, I can't record this stream 
because you has not the right program installed" or something like this? 
Could be usefull. Thank you. Good work. When I can see KMplayer into 
kdemultimedia? For KDE 4?
