Hi All,

I have a one-off need to record sound, so I am hoping somebody will
have done all the hard work for me :-)
It's streamed from a radio station online in either Real player
format, or mp3 format.
These both play on my Mac fine, using VLC & iTunes respectively, but
as the mp3 stream is 128kbps while the Real stream is listed as "22,
44 & 96 kbps", I am assuming the mp3 stream is the way to go.

I've looked at various capture utilities, but they all want money,
which would be fine if I wanted to do this regularly, but I only need
it once, so I though maybe Rev could do it for me.
If anyone knows of a freeware alternative, that would be great.

Meanwhile, I have been looking at Rev's sound recording capabilities.
There seem to be lots of options, and I can get the "record sound"
dialog, even though I don't know what to choose.
But I guess the real problem is selecting the recordInput. The docs
say to use a 4 letter code and they say that the possible options vary
with hardware & system software, but I can't see any way to tell what
options are available. The listed ones don't appear to include
recording a live stream.

As you will all be able to tell, I know next to nothing about audio
formats or recording, but an advice or sample scripts would be
gratefully received.

Many thanks,
Sarah
