We record Internet radio with Streamripper
It is strange that on Habré such useful program as Streamripper was not mentioned yet . This is a console program that allows you to record Internet radio from resources such as Shoutcast and Icecast . And it’s not just recording, but pulling out individual tracks from the stream along with the titles.
The program runs on Linux, FreeBSD, BeOS, Windows and OS / 2. Streamripper has several graphical shells, for example StationRipper for Windows. A complete list of skins is on the Streamripper home page.
Now a little about the use and possibilities of the program. In this case, I will assume (when naming files, etc.) that the stream is in mp3 format. In the simplest case, the program is used as follows:
Such a team will set Streamripper at a given URL (the URL can be easily pulled from the contents of the playlist). Streamripper by the name of the stream (which is also broadcast) will create a directory in the current one and store tracks there. Tracks that are not fully recorded will be stored in a subdirectory named incomplete. The program must be terminated forcibly (for example, by pressing Ctrl-C).
')
To create a directory not in the current directory, but in an arbitrary directory, you can use the -d switch.
To prevent the Streamripper from creating a directory with the name of the stream, you must use the -s option.
Streamripper is able to complete work after a specified period of time (in seconds) or at the time when the size of the received files exceeds the specified amount (in MB). To do this, use the keys -l (lowercase L) and -M, respectively. If the -l and -M keys are used simultaneously, the program will exit when one of the values is exceeded.
Work for two hours.
Work until 50MB of music is accumulated.
With the help of Streamripper you can simultaneously listen and record radio, avoiding duplication of traffic. To do this, use the -r key to create a relay-server. By default, it will hang on port 8000. Linux users can do, for example, like this:
and in another window
You can learn about the remaining options by typing
If dividing into tracks is not required, you can use the console program to download wget to record Internet radio. In Linux distributions, it is usually installed by default, otherwise it probably is in the repository. Windows users can pick up wget for Windows, for example, here .
In this case, it is necessary to shut down wget. To limit the download time, you can use a third-party timeout utility. In Ubuntu, just install the timeout package. Using:
Record for 30 seconds
