When you watch a live stream over the Internet in Windows Media Player, where is the file stored so I can keep a copy?

I'm trying to record a copy of Click Online from bbcworld.com to play back on my DVD player.

I dont think streaming makes a file in your hard drive. Try to click on the link that starts the streamin with right click>save link as.

Tryed that, it just downloads a little file just a few kb in size which starts of the full stream if you click it.

A lot of times site use playlist files because they DONT want people to download the actual song or video. With a playlist file, your music player only streams real-time from a server; usually the server is locked and passworded so you can't actually download the song or video (and burn it to a cd).

Warning tho it will still be streaming quality so if you decide to play on a Tv i.e. it will be very blocky.
