hi. i'm working on an app for myself and i wondered if it's possible to just dump the wma data ( from live stream, not hosted file, mms protocol) straight to file? from my own tests with mplayer, i was able to dump the data but the file was reported as broken and only playable through mplayer itself.
i'm thinking i need to fix the header or something.

from extensive google search i only found one application that did this, but it didn't work well for my needs and was in chinese.

i'm coding in c# and i'm not really a professional coder.

Net Transport is usually given as the best at this, but also the hardest to learn to use. There are quite a few posts about it come up in a forum search. VLC may also do it.

but mplayer should also work fine.
