I think that are lot of ways, but this one should work: 1) Get the file with stream urls: wget -O videos "http://switch3.castup.net/cunet/gm.asp?ai=214&ar=1050wmv&ak=TY"; PS: The contents will be saved in file "videos" 2) Extract the stream urls: cat videos | grep "mms://" | sed "s/<ref href=\"\(.*\)\".*/\1/" > urls 3) Now file "urls" contains each stream url 4) You can save the stream with Mplayer: mplayer -dumpstream "mms://s95wm.castup.net/server12/39182686-61.wmv?ct=BR&rg=NA&aid=214&st=0&ts=0&cu=77D67414-0C4A-4A7E-A3EE-41600FDA4131" PS: Do not forget to put the stream url in double quotes :) Cheers; Renê On Tue, Sep 16, 2008 at 9:42 PM, Bhikkhu Mettavihari <draketools@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Renê and Ben > > Thank you for the reply's > > On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 12:22 AM, Renê <rene@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Are you getting this error because address contains the & character, >> that it's used by shell to start proccess in background, >> you can easily download file with wget by putting double quotes in address: >> >> wget "http://switch3.castup.net/cunet/gm.asp?ai=214&ar=1050wmv&ak=TY"; >> >> or use \& instead &, like this: >> >> wget http://switch3.castup.net/cunet/gm.asp?ai=214\&ar=1050wmv\&ak=TY > > Thank you so much.
