ASFRecorder Changelog

What's new in ASFRecorder 1.1

Jul 4, 2007
  • ASFRecorder V1.1 now has a HTTP proxy support (fully configurable in the GUI).
  • Support for accessing password-protected streams has been added. Username and password must be known, of course. Don't use stolen passwords! This is illegal.
  • ASFRecorder now saves live-content as fully seekable streams (which unfortunately only works correctly with Media Player 6.4, and *not* with version 7.0). See the FAQ on how to use Media Player 6.4 even if you have previously installed the 7.0 update!
  • An incompatibility with certain streams using a packetized or "split" header has been fixed (which occurs in some audio-only streams using small packets, e.g. audio books or narrow band radio).
  • Resuming an incomplete stream will no longer result in corrupt streams if ASFRecorder has previously been terminated by a system crash or a "forced close" of the Windows DOS box.
  • ASFRecorder V1.0 transmitted a static client GUID to the media server when connecting. This has been replaced by a randomized GUID. So the server log files can no longer be specifically scanned for accesses with ASFRecorder.
  • Handling of %-Escape sequences in URLs is now done properly (I hope). The program now removes disallowed characters from file names (for the Windows platform).
  • And finally, the "About Box" has been brushed up a little.
