And here it is. Navigation:  Using Total Recorder >

Background recording (capturing) and playing of Internet streams 
(Professional and Developer Editions only)


Total Recorder supports the capturing of Internet streams. You can record an 
Internet transmission either through an ordinary recording (see also How to 
record an Internet transmission) or through capturing (referred to as 
background recording in Total Recorder').

For an ordinary recording of an Internet stream through Total Recorder, the 
following occurs:

1. A playback program (e.g. WinAmp, WMP, etc.) connects to an Internet 
server.

2. The playback program receives data from the server in a compressed format 
(e.g. mp3, wma, etc.).

3. The playback program decodes the data to an uncompressed (PCM) format and 
passes the uncompressed data to the soundboard.

4. Total Recorder captures this uncompressed data, often encodes the data in 
a specified compressed format, and writes the data to a file.

For direct background recording of an Internet stream, the following occurs:

1. Total Recorder connects to an Internet server.

2. Total Recorder receives data from the server in a compressed format (e.g. 
mp3, wma, etc.).

3. Total Recorder writes the data to a file in its original (compressed) 
format.

4. This data can be saved to a file as an ordinary recording.

When you play back the file, Total Recorder reads data from the file, 
decodes it, and passes it to your sound board.

Although the approach for an ordinary recording is more universal and there 
are no requirements for server types or stream formats, direct background 
recording has the following advantages:

· There is no need to use an external program.

· Re-encoding is not required to save a stream to a file.

· A decreased load on your system.

· There is no need to use a Total Recorder driver. Also, if you do not 
listen to the Internet stream being recorded then your soundboard is not 
used at all.

· Total Recorder can extract data from Internet streams and insert track 
separators based on that data.

You can background record an Internet stream manually or using a scheduled 
job.

To manually background record an internet stream, take the following steps:

1. Open an Internet stream (see Opening an Internet stream).

2. Start playback or background recording.

For information on using the built-in scheduler or command line, refer to 
the sections "Using a Scheduler" and Using the command line.

For information on background recording using auto-stop recording mode, 
refer to the section Using Auto-Stop Mode.

For information on creating track separators during a background recording, 
refer to the "Working with cue files" section.

Note

The following types of streams and servers are supported:

- MP3 and Ogg Vorbis streams transmitted by IceCast/ShoutCast-compatible 
servers

- WMA streams transmitted by Windows Media Servers. If you have the Video 
Add-on installed, you can also work with Windows Media Video streams.

Chris, Can you record a stream but ignore the screenreader with
totalrecorder?

Thanks,

Ar, probably Total recorder is the better choice then as you can directly
capture the stream without loss of audio quality, which can happen with
traditional recording programs. Total Recorder is fully accessible, costs
around £28, and there is a good evaluation version you can get from
www.totalrecorder.com.

Hi Andy, Richard and Orhan

Many thanks for your response to my question.

I am not familiar with the programs you all suggested, so
what are the advantages and disadvantages, and which is the
most Jaws friendly?

Basically, I wish to record a BBC radio program from either
the live radio or "listen again" feature.

Best wishes

Henry

Hi Henry,
If you mean something like the BBC, you'll have to use a
program like audacity to record the station. Audacity will
go through your default sound card and jaws will have to go
through another. However if your streaming with shoutcast or
icecast and the station is playing in your media player, you
can do the same. You can also record internet streams with
total recorder, which is not free. I haven't used it
personally, but I don't record a lot of radio anyway.

Best regards,
Orhan Deniz

Hi Everyone

Please could someone explain how I can record radio stations
from the internet and store on a USB device?

I am using Jaws V7 and home XP.

Any advice will be most appreciated.

Henry
