This is the 14K modem stream for the BBC World Service show Go Digital.

the show is approx 25 minutes in length

I tested using a larger cache of 1024 (1 meg) and the CVS build from today
it recorded fine except it seemed to lock up at 27 minutes instead of ending
which was after the show,commercials, and some news

I stopped the recording by killing the program using CTRL-C

I never saw your error message in my test.

good luck.
