Linux and Unix comes with various commands and apps that can be used to capture Microsoft Media Server (MMS) network streaming. MMS can be transported via UDP or TCP. The MMS default port is UDP/TCP 1755.
You can use mencoder command as follows to caputre mms stream:
mencoder mms://ip-address/foo.wmv -ovc copy -oac copy -o foo.avi mencoder mms://1.2.3.4/bar.wmv -ovc copy -oac copy -o bar.avi |
Once done use mplayer command to play foo.avi:
$ mplayer foo.avi
VLC user can use the following command line option:
$ cvlc -vvv mms://1.2.3.4/foo/bar --sout file/avi:output.avi
$ vlc mms://1.2.3.4/foo/bar --sout=file/ps:output.mpg

I’ve used mplayer in a similar way with the “dumpstream” option: this is to record a MP3 stream:
mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile .mp3 -cache 65536
Also, while this is going on, I found you can use VLC to play back the file as it’s being created – and thus listen to it almost live, just a few seconds behind. VLC recognises that the file is getting bigger and adjusts the playback accordingly.
Sometimes I noticed that instead of mms://ip you should use mmsh://ip and works well.
how can i save my recordings from crush linux system ?
