I'm trying to rip a window$ media stream, looking for some
hints... The stream is http://www.2ser.com/stream.

Playing the stream using mplayer works:

$ mplayer http://138.25.162.211:8080 

Here's the relevant output:

> ASF file format detected.
> Forced audio codec: mad
> 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))
> ==========================================================================
> AO: [alsa] 48000Hz 2ch s16le (2 bytes per sample)

Ripping the stream using mplayer:

$ mplayer http://138.25.162.211:8080 -dumpaudio -dumpfile foo

This doesn't give any errors, but mplayer won't play the file. Is this
the right way to rip using mplayer? Is there an easier way to do this
(maybe using another program)?

Unfortunately I can't use streamripper - it doesn't support window$
media.
