Recording You Internet Radio Stations in Linux

Internet Radio Ripper !!!

It is called Kradioripper

First you need to download it from http://kstreamripper.sourceforge.net/

or like I did and downloaded it from Mandriva's "Install & Remove Software" tool.

After you install it and run it (It's located "K menu -->sound and Video -->More --> KRadioRipper")

When you lunch it first go to "settings" and configure the save directory!

Now go to Shoutcast (The 80's channel ), download a *.pls file and open it with any text editor (I used "gedit").

Now copy the line after File1=

(some thing like "http://scfire-mtc-aa02.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1040").

Now in Kradioripper select "New Stream" and in the line Url past the line you just copied and press OK.

Now Just press Record and you done !!!

Kradioripped will separate each song in different file and will call the files by the name of the artist and the name of the song !!!

p.s. Kradioripper will put every stream in different folder for easy access and ordering !!!
