Open the pop-up player and open the page source. Look for audioHtml and copy out the value, which is an URL.

As the URL is escaped, you'll have to replace all occurrences of \/ with /. This will yield a valid URL to a playlist file.

If you follow the URL and download the file, then you should be able to open it in a player of your choice.

Disclaimer: I have no idea how reliable the playlist or the contained URLs will be. This was not intended to be used this way.

Extracting a URL for BBC AAC radio stream from their config file (contents inside)

What you're looking at is an Session Description Protocol file that basically tells you the IP where the stream is to be found and what it actually is.

So here's the information about where the stream is:

c=<network type> <address type> <connection address>    
c=IN IP4 233.122.227.170/32

And here for the media stream contained:

m=<media> <port> <transport> <fmt list>
m=audio 5170 RTP/AVP 96

Now, as far as I'm concerned, you should be able to open a media player like VLC and let it connect to rtp://233.122.227.170:5170, which should get you the stream's contents.

However I can't access anything at that URL which is probably due to the fact that BBC limits its broadcasting to UK only IP addresses.

Find URL of Flash radio stream

I encourage you to use their website, as you probably get the service for free thanks to their adverts.

However, for educational purposes, you can use the browser's built-in network analyzer (I use Google Chrome) or wireshark to get the URL:

http://8303.live.streamtheworld.com/WKXWFMAAC

A full list of URL's can be found in the xml file:

http://playerservices.streamtheworld.com/api/livestream?version=1.5&mount=WKXWFMAAC&lang=EN&transports=http&nobuf=1355525218692

Anyhow, my VLC doesn't seem to connect whilst Totem works perfectly fine, and I can download the stream as well.
