Does anyone know if there's a way to save audio that streams from flash players on websites?
Buy a male to male stereo minijack patch cable. It should cost 5 bucks or less.
Plug one end into your sound card's output jack and the other end into its microphone or line-in jack.
Hit 'record' in your sound recorder and then play the flash.
You could just just use audacity to record the output of your soundcard, without needing a cable for it.
>>1 view-source. often, the mp3 they're streaming will be right in the player's code.
>>2 >>3
I was looking for something a little more direct than that, something like >>4, as you would have to record a compressed file to wav and then compress that compressed uncompressed wav. I was hoping there was a program I could download, that would let me download the audio, like the many there are for downloading streaming video now, but thanks anyway. Anyone got any other ideas?
google flvextract, extracts mp3s from flv
from there you can convert to wav, that's as close as you're going to get
A flash decompiler is a good way, if not the only, to extract sound from a flash movie. I recommend Eltima Flash Decompiler. It's not free, but if it's for a one-time use it's fine. You have to download the flash file first, but you can usually find that easily by looking at the web page's source.
Or you could go to the firefox plugins page and search for a plugin that does it. I think there are at least 3 of them.
