streaming url

Can one use wireshark to find the correct streaming url of a webradio, like http://www.chanson.ru/on-line.html? I would like to record their songs with audial one.

If one can find the url, how does one do it specifically (in detail please, I'm a newbie here)?

Thanks in advance gfheiche

Close all other applications, except the browser
Close all tabs in the browser, except the one that loads the web radio page
Capture the whole traffic of your system, while you listen to the radio stream. HINT: You must start the capture before you click on the "Play" button/link. Don't use any capture filter!
Look at the TCP statstics (Statistics -> Conversation List -> TCP)
Sort the out for "Bytes" or "Packets"
The connection with the most Bytes/Packets is most certainly the audio stream
Click on that connection and then click on "Follow Stream"
At the beginning of the TCP connection, you should see the URL (if it was streamed via HTTP).

Unfortunately, it did not give me the streaming url. It seems from the stations http://www.chanson.ru/on-line.html page source that it is written in java. Thank you very much for your detailed and clear help

it is using a flash player (JW Player) to stream the music. The URL is:

http://chanson.cdnvideo.ru/rr/chanson.stream/playlist.m3u8

You can find it by using the following display filter:

http.request or http.response

then look into the HTML code to find the URL.

You have a trillion packets.

You need to see four of them.

Don't have Wireshark?
