Quick answer
Try a short recording of permitted Ximalaya audio in TuneTrace. If it captures sound, record the full episode, name it and save it locally. You can then listen offline and resume where you stopped.

Common questions
Can a preview be recorded as a full episode?
No. You need access to the full episode; recording only captures what actually plays.
Can I import Ximalaya’s cached downloads?
Not as ordinary audio files. If you have separate, usable audio files, import those into TuneTrace instead.
How can I continue a long episode later?
Enable resume playback after saving. You can also split the recording into named chapters.
Only record audio you have permission to save. The source app or iOS may restrict recording.
