Let me try to respond to a couple points people have asked about. I love Total Recorder under Windows xp; didn't like it under 98.

My favorite way to tell TR Pro what stream to record is the second check box on the Advanced pate of the scheduler. this way I don't deal with the mini-browser, which I could deal with but don't have to. Here you check the box for Run, then in the edit box which magically appears, put an Url. Jim, I suggest you run a short test of the process if you haven't gotten it to work by now. Here is the Listen link for kbcs, a good radio station local to us: http://kbcs.fm/kbcs2.pls You might verify beforehand that the stream is playing, but it usually does.

Put that url into the run box. On the schedule page, choose the radio button for duration, as opposed to exact time. In response to another question, you can have flexible durations if you go into the advanced dialog box here. You can choose to limit the recording to a particular size, to tell TR to stop recording if nothing is recorded for a particular length of time, or to stop recording if the sound level is at a certain level for a period of time.

An important check box is found in the Recording Source and Parameters dialog. This is the box for accelerated recording. On my systems, this works great if recording an mp3 stream, and means that the stream can be recording while you use a screen reader, without your hearing the stream. If this box is checked and the stream is not mp3, nothing will record.

TR should not record your screen reader. If it does, there's a registry fix provided by High Criteria to correct this behavior.

The recommendations given in previous messages regarding setting up the program are accurate.

I hope this is helpful.
