For my online course my teacher is posting links on his website so we can hear his lectures through Real Player. I was wondering if anyone knows how i can record/save these lectures while they are streaming? I want to be able to hear them whenever i want, save them to my hard drive, not for the two days he keeps the link online.

Thanks

did you ever think of asking google?

yeah, i found how to do it downloading some other freeware, but now how to do it through Real Player.
I was just wondering if anyone here knew how, google didnt tell me how to do that.

it might be 'cheating' to record that stream - after all he could make them only available for two days for a reason, eg. so slackers would go ahead and do their work when it is assigned, and not at their leisures.

i think thats exactly what he is doing, so you have to listen to them with in the two day period. But i want a way around that. I checked, and his syllabus doesnt say anywhere that you cant record them. I think he hopes that we wont bother trying to figure out how to...

man, you better watch that. it doesn't have to be in the syllabus for it to be considered cheating.

i am not recieving help from anyone on any papers or tests. Also he never stated that it was not allowed or that it was cheating... idk, still think that i could a) get caught, b) get in trouble?

(if anyone knows how i'd still like to know)

ok, sir - if you think that getting help is the only thing considered cheating, you need help. check out this little story. I knew a girl that had a certain english class, and they were assigned specific chapters of a book to read and write about. she quoted (quoted as in correctly cited the source) something from a chapter that was not assigned to the reading/writing and got found guilty of plagiarism. he doesn't have to state that recording the videos are allowed or not - besides you never know who is reading this. i would ask him before i recorded them.

Cheers, sir. thanks for your advice. Sounds like that english prof was a little unstable, but i understand what you are saying. In anycase, until i reach the prof. i would like to record todays lecture.


So if anyone has any input on how i can record streaming audio using Real player that would be great.

Where are the links to the lectures?

7/5/2006 3:51:21 PM

most likely a course WRAP

7/5/2006 3:53:53 PM

I just wondering if he can't just "right click to save as..."

7/5/2006 4:00:44 PM

all that does is save a shortcut to the link...

I am just going to use some freeware. Thanks for the help though.
