Hi Brian, I've owned Total Recorder since it first came out, I think at least a decade ago now, but I think Replay A/V is better for what you're wanting to do in this case. Chris's message was very thorough and detailed. Replay A/V has become one of my most essential audio-related pieces of software. Not only do I use it to record from a vast variety of streams and streaming formats, but it also works as a very convenient tuner. In this way, you don't have to worry about whether the stream is a Real, WM, or MP3 one. Just add it to Replay A/V, locate it in the listview, and press control+T. It will also record from TV tuner cards, and as Chris said, the URL finder is a fantastic tool for when you want to get a stream that is imbedded on a web page to come up in a stand-alone player. I use it to tune into streams from the online versions of XM and Sirius, all of which are now in my list of stations so I can get at them automatically because it will log me onto those services.
While you can indeed convert the stream to the format of your choice, you can also just dump the stream to your hard drive. For example, I record a lot of BBC material and play it using realOne Player on my PAC Mate. The Aplian people have been most responsive to accessibility issues and I can't speak highly enough of this software.
