All Things
Considered:
these ram files can no longer be counted
upon - NPR has ceased using .ram formats
and uses smil instead
http://www.npr.org/ramfiles/atc/20030215.atc.01.ram
http://www.npr.org/ramfiles/atc/20030223.atc.06.ram
Must use the rtsp files according
to the following format rules
rtsp://audio.npr.org/atc/20030307.atc.10.smil
rtsp://audio.npr.org/atc/20030314.atc.10.smil
BUT this formatseems to work only from 6 March
2003 until 3 April 2003 but NOT before
or after)
see: Javascript code that NPR uses now to interpret its dates and formats
to itself :
http://www.npr.org/include/javascript/jsfuncs.js
Also, any given day's ful program seems to be placed each day at:
http://www.npr.org/atc3.smil
=========================================
NEW Format:
http://www.npr.org/dmg/dmg.php?prgCode=WESAT&showDate=22-Feb-2003&segNum=11&mediaPref=RM
So you can work with the Javascript:
('ME', '07-Apr-2003',
7, 'WM,RM')

CBS Video
Format:
click to connect in CBS Javascript window:
http://www.cbsnews.com/htdocs/videoplayer/newVid/video_display_new.html?clip=/media/2003/02/25/video542028.rm
save to download as:
http://www.cbsnews.com/media/2003/02/25/video542028.rm
http://www.cbsnews.com/media/2003/02/25/video542030.rm
can be derived from adding http://www.cbsnews.com to the string in the javascript
"clip" sequence
javascript:vlaunch('clip=/media/2003/02/25/video542030.rm')
so, for example: http://www.cbsnews.com/media/2003/02/25/video542030.rm
