I need the advise on the best and easiest to use along with being freeware to capture audio & video on streaming video. I have a MacPowerPC G5 2.5x 4 Leopard 10.5.7. Any suggestions? I need the info ASAP. Thank you

Thanks Big Mac! I will give it a try.

You're welcome!

Just checked out the SnapnDrag and it's for still frame screen capture. I need some free software that will record or capture live video & audio off streaming video same time like a live concert.

Don't know of any, sorry. Snapz Pro X does video but it's $69.

I've used the cli mplayer with the -dumpstream option to save realmedia streams, and I've used mssclient (comes with ASFRecorderX) to save mss:// type streams... but I've never tried saving a live stream. In any case, first you need to find out what format it uses and try to find software for it.

Stream recording isn't such a usual thing that there are "all-in-one" solutions for OS X, afaik.
