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. See also.

Total Recorder is fully accessible, costs around £28, and there is a good evaluation version you can get from www.totalrecorder.com. -- Chris Hallsworth e-mail: christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN: ch9675@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: chrishallsworth7266 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Henry Miller" <henrymiller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 2:45 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Recording from the internet 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 -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Orhan Deniz Sent: 28 March 2009 13:46 To: Henry Miller Subject: [access-uk] Re: Recording from the internet 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.
