***sorry, not sure where to ask this question, this i was the closest thread i have found related to my inquiry...if i posted wrong, please accept my appologies. thank you. plz tell me of a good streaming video/audio program to have? i have done some research on the net, i have looked at sites like tucows but i still haven't found what i am looking for yer. i am not even sure if does exist... i am looking for a program that i can record the streaming videos from sites (you know the videos you can't download, you can only watch them from the source), the program i also need to record streaming audio (like winamp audio stuff), and i also would like to have the program also capture the music from a regular cd that i instert on my cd drive...and i can save the tracks as mp3 or wma and then convert to mp3s...i also need a program that would record wathever sound i am playing on the my pc, either from a cd, or a microphone, a music, anything. can anybody tell me if anything like above exists, please? i thank you in advance... carapalid PS> i know of audacity but it only records sound...it doesnt' do all the stuff i mentioned above... PS> a freeware program would be the best but if not of course others work as well...
AFAIK the only way to record streaming video is using a video screen capture utility like Camtasia Studio. It includes any sound generated by your system. For ripping CD's to mp3 or wma you need aother software. There are literaly hundreds of programs for that. Google the web for "freeware CD ripping" and you will come acrsoos sites like this: http://www.snapfiles.com/freeware/gmm/fwcdrip.html
thank you for the info... i did some research before posting here...i just did not know if there was one program that would do all of that together...and/or which one is a GOOD one to have/buy... i found capturewiz pro but i thought the streaming videos capture were a little crappie... i will look at that link you sent me... thank you... carapalid
Oh yeah, forgot to mention there is also a freeware utility that captures the screen into movie files: http://www.camstudio.org/ The only issue that you will encouter with utilities like that is that it takes a lot of system resources playing a video file and at the same time recording it.
