Record audio and video streams with VLC or Windows Media Player is possible for quite some time, but the task requires many steps, some quite specific, and as we can imagine that ends up scaring away users with less knowledge.
StreamRecorder.NET is an application that can help, by acting as a frontend for both applications and thereby convert a rather complicated task into one that almost anyone can perform. And that is an initial step to establish the path to VLC and / or Windows Media Player (Options menu) so you can use one or both to record.
Then we can specify various options, such as the output format of the streams and even the duration of the recording, which is useful if you want to stop recording without having to face the computer for it. In addition, StreamRecorder.NET allows us to combine two or more files, and for audio MP3, Edit tags and headers.
When we have all defined only will need to enter in the URL field (below the red button "Record") the URL of the stream, and we'll be ready.
StreamRecorder.NET is freeware and compatible with Windows 7, Vista and XP (32 and 64 bits), and only requires installation. NET framework 3.5 SP1 or higher.
