Hello,
It's also possible to do this with LiquidSoap in the Linux world. We've
had it configured to log soundcard input and webstream sources in hourly
chunks at different stations.
On the Windows side of things, I've seen Powerlog, in-house tools, odd
little £20 tools you've never heard of before and RadioMonitor (who use
Linux for their logging platform anyway). The catch with some of the
cheep-n-cheerful tools on Windows is that we've seen support stop on
them with no notice. Not great when you might have Ofcom chapping on the
door requesting some audio.
Rob's suggesting reminds me of us doing the same at a student radio
station years ago. It worked surprisingly well.
Regards,
Marc.

I am looking for a piece of software (if possible) that I can use at our
school to record the broadcast station 24/7.
I am just using wget for that. I have a cron job set to run atthe top
of each hour; it starts wget to record an mp3 stream from icecast
running on the same machine. wget is run as a child process; the
parent checks the elapsed time every second and when it gets to 3600
(i.e. 1 hour), it kills the child process and terminates. Meanwhile,
another cron job will have started to record the next hour.
The files are saved with names like 3pm.mp3 in folders with names like
mon_sep_22_2014; the script looks for any such folder more than 90
days old and deletes it.
I'm doing this for seven stations so far.
I'm not running Windows, though.
Rob
