I've loaded a website that is completely flash and it has music playing (streaming, I'm sure) that I would like in Mp3 form.
Is there a program that can capture what my speakers are outputting?
Thanks, GAF.

My computer came with Creative Sound Recorder... you can record anything that is being played on your computer (it creates a .wav but I'm sure you know how to convert it to mp3).

Any idea where I can score this?

hmm if you don't alread have it on your computer... =/ .. um.. I'll do some searches for you. I'll also check if I have an installer on here that I can send you.

There are programs that will do a soft-waveout mix... like WinADR for example. I used this to record the audio for a flash file I was converting to DVD.

Failing this, go into Volume Control > Options > Properties > Recording.

IF there's a "Wave Out" or something to that effect, check that box, and any sound recording program will record every sound the computer makes. Turn down your speakers or just turn off your microphone to avoid feedback and you're set.

If there isn't any such option - perhaps installing generic sound blaster drivers will provide one?

ALSO: if you can get your hands on the actual SWF files (raid your temporary internet files, or view source on webpages and use a client like GetRight or something to download them) .... then you could try various Flash extraction programs, that let you get at the assets.

I can send you creative recorder (I made a zip file of the program and the required dlls, etc.). Just let me know your email (333kb).

If that doesn't work and you have access to a Mac, you can use Wiretap. It's free and works flawlessly.
