It doesn't look like you have the link correct, but otherwise, this is it:

Code:

mplayer -playlist http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio1.shtml -ao pcm:file=show.wav -vc null -vo null

It doesn't work for me.

Code:

mplayer -playlist http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio1.shtml -ao pcm:file=show.wav -vc null -vo null

Code:

mplayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/realaudio/media/r1live.ram

worked for me.

The difference is pwc101 has the correct link to the ram file.

You just had a web page -> http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio1.shtml
