Playing the stream using mplayer works: $ mplayer http://138.25.162.211:8080 I use mplayer this way to rip 2SER to a wave file.

Is vlc scriptable? If so, what'd be the command to rip this 'blows media stream? -- Sonia Hamilton. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

Thanks, that worked! Out of interest, what format would that be coming
out as natively (I'm an audio noob)? Playing says:
Opening audio decoder: [ffmpeg] FFmpeg/libavcodec audio decoders
AUDIO: 44100 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, 64.0 kbit/4.54% (ratio: 8003-176400)
Selected audio codec: [ffwmav2] afm: ffmpeg (DivX audio v2 (FFmpeg))

Thank!!! I'll use a script like this:
newname=${1%wav}mp3
lame -h -m s $1 -o $newname
Any easier way to do this?
