I can listen to a continuously ogg-streaming radio station with this
command:
mplayer http://engine.collegemedia.vt.edu:8000/wuvt.ogg
and I've successfully recorded (using scripts and at) fixed-duration
RealPlayer radio shows to .wav to listen to them later. But I'd like to
record a specific show tonight from the continuous live ogg stream.
I suppose I could set up an at job to start recording at 18:30 and another
to "killall mplayer" at 20:00, but I think that might cause problems (and
it's hideously inelegant).
I've done just that to listen to KUSC at 2AM and stop at 5AM.
But I did it with two commands I implemented with Qt: do_sm and do_km.
Crontab starts do_sm at 2AM and it spawns mplayer to record.
Crontab starts do_km at 5AM and it finds the record with the PID of
do_sm and kills it with a TERM, which mplayer gets and terminates.
Very elegant, but only because I did it that way of course ;-)
If you want I can send you the code but don't respond to the from
address but to hugovanwoerkom at yahoo dot com. Care2 is the pits.
This prompts the question again: can you list and record at the same
time with mplayer?
