Just to add support to this one. I also record maybe 15-20 hours of BBC Radio 1/2/3/4 content weekly and synch to itunes. All went well until a recent rebuild of my PC using Vista and suddenly I got all the sometimes random problems other forum users are having.

I now find that there is inconsistency of problem between diifferent shows even on same station e.g. one show will record but wont convert, or will not record, or will be perfect, or will be perfect but wont synch into iTunes. I now find also that having used the forum to find the links to BBC broadcasts in .asx format, they work perfectly well, until suddenly they dont.

At the moment I am randomly trying all sorts of stream capture and conversions from "Leave Alone" through all variations of M4A M4B, Window Media etc hoping I will find a combination that will work.

Its driving me mad.
