gmms0.0.1

gmms is a lightweight cross-platform utility designed with a single goal in mind: to help you download MMS streams in the easiest way possible. This tool comes in handy for all users who want to download streams (radio shows, songs, clips) for playing them in an offline mode.It sports a clean and simplistic interface that allows you to add a valid URL in the dedicated dialog. In order to start the downloading process, you are required to pick a saving directory.gmms keeps a log which contains details about the entire operation and possible errors that may appear during the downloading sessions. The log cannot be exported to a file, but you can copy the information to the Clipboard.Basically, it’s extremely easy to work with this tool, as you only need to insert the URL and then press the “Go!” button. What’s more, you are allowed to stop the downloading process.The lack of configurable settings can be good news only for rookies who don’t have to consult a help menu or view tutorials to get an idea of how this program works.On the downside, more experienced users may find pretty inconvenient to work with a tool that doesn’t come packed with advanced settings. It doesn’t support batch processing for downloading multiple streams at the same time, nor give you the possibility to download streams for other proxy servers, such as HTTP, TCP, or UDP.Unfortunately, the multimedia files that are saved to your computer have the ASF format, so you should be able to play them with Windows Media Player. gmms cannot work with other file formats, so in case you want to keep them as MP3 or other audio format, you have to use a conversion tool.All in all, gmms cannot compete with other powerful tools on the market, as it lacks advanced features.
