Save a stream with VLC
VLC can save the stream to the disk. In order to do this, use the Stream Output of VLC : you can do it via the graphical interface, or you can add to the command line the following argument:
--sout file/muxer:stream.xyz
where:
muxer is one of the formats supported by VLC's stream output, i.e. :
ogg for OGG format,
ps MPEG2-PS format,
ts for MPEG2-PS format.
and stream.xyz is the name of the file you want to save the stream to, with the right extension.
