'audio/mpeg' ! filesink location=yourdestfile.mp2 That simply extracts the audio from the transport stream, without converting the format at all. The resulting file is MPEG2 audio - anything that can play MP3 should be able to play it. If you want to convert it to MP3 or OGG (perhaps if file size is an issue) let me know and I'll give you a revised command. GStreamer packages should be available for your distro (in Debian you want 'gstreamer0.10-tools' and 'gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg'). Depending on your distro the gst-launch command may have a version number postfix, e.g. gst-launch-0.10. If you can't make it work put the files somewhere I can get them and I'll do it for you. GStreamer can be a bit of a pain and older versions can have serious bugs that prevent things from working as they should.
