    When you insert the url and press record the D/L should start saving to the default directory c:\program files\getasfstream\root\
    The default name for the D/L is "-No Title-.wmv"

    At the same time, Windows media Player will display the stream.

    When the D/L is complete, the file should be available for playback or conversion.
