Hello,

I have googled this and was unablt to locate my answer.

Is there a program or script that downloads the ram files and then
automatically downloads the audio file the ram file points to?

There is a web page that has many ram files. When opened they point to an
mp3 audio file. I just thought there had to be a better way than to open
each ram file manually.

Thank you,
Steve

Do a search for mencoder + wiki or mencoder + how-to. I think it was on
Gentoo's wiki I found a nice description but I am not quite sure of that.

You might want to have Debian multimedia repository to download some
non official packages.

Hello,

Thanks for the help. I would use that if I needed to stream the audios.
They are files on a server, no need to stream, so I will try something
different. Also, there are quite a few audios so if I streamed them, well
I'd rather not..;-)

I will use wget to download all of the ram files.

I will then use 'cat *.ram > all.txt' to put all the urls into one file.

I will break that txt file into smaller parts. I will then point wget to
each one of those smaller txt files, with very conservative download
speeds set, and download the files.

That's the best I could come up with.

Thanks again,
Steve
