Standalone FLV Players and MPlayer seem to work fine. I'm not really familiar with MPlayer but I understand it can convert everything it's able to play.

Contributing Member Posts: 10 09/03/2008 11:23:51	thanks... i will try SMPlayer. having used orbit to succesfully download the FLV audio files i am having trouble listening to them or converting them to MP3's. is this because they are protected? an example file is: hardfloor_20080722_hi.m4a (incidentally) i just tried to play the file: radioactiveman_growl_20080722_hi.m4a with SMPlayer but it crashed!

Contributing Member Posts: 10 09/05/2008 11:58:26	thanks kron, tried using winFF to convert the m4a.flv files but it didn't work. is it a dead end? trying to convert rtmp_flv streams? the files on my HD are the right size, does that mean i have the file but just can't access it (as it's write-protected) or has it phantom downloaded? : )

If nothing works, since you're re-encoding anyway, then I guess you could always use a software like Audacity to record the audio directly from your sound card. Although this can be inconvenient since recording must be done in real time and any other sound going on in your pc is also recorded.
