mplayer can do it (with the right codecs, of course):

mplayer -nojoystick -nolirc -really-quiet -vo null -ao pcm:file=/tmp/blah.pcm -vc dummy rtsp://host.example.org/directory/file.rm

If you replace '/tmp/blah.pcm' with the path of a FIFO and then pipe that
into lame, you can make it spit out an mp3 file, instead of the huge pcm
that the above line gives you...

(audio only, here. no idea what needs to be done with video streams).

Cheers,

Paul
