[gentoo-user] A Good player for streaming audio

2007-07-06 Thread Aleksey V. Kunitskiy
Hi
I'm using Amarok as my favorite audio player. But I listen to radio very often 
and I not found in Amarok ability of writing audio streams.
Anybody can advice me a good player for recording radio streams?
Thanks

You could try streamtuner and streamripper in combination. I've had good
luck with those.

Hi,

I use amarok for listening to shoutcast streams myself. The only
workaround using amarok (that I found, at least) is using the file
output module, and using aplay for listening to the output file
(default: ~/xine-out.wav). Maybe that will suit your needs?

hth,

Hmm, can you point me to this file output module, please? You are using 
aplay because that module does raw dump of the stream without header, so 
amarok can't play it?

Audio settings -- set audio output to xine engine -- change output
module (in German Ausgabe-Modul) to file. That writes the output to
the file ~/alsa-out.wav.

Sorry for inaccuracies from translating, I have a German locale, so I
don't know what the English version says.

Side note: I know it's possible to temporarily set the locale to en_US
in the command line. I tried doing a
$ {LANG,LANGUAGE,LOCALE}=en_US amarok
, but amarok stayed German. Temporarily changing KDE to US English
affected the control center (immediately), but not amarok. What is the
correct way of doing this?

Actually, I used aplay because that was what first sprung to mind ;).
You can of course use amarok, or whatever you want (I edited what I
recorded in Audacity, for instance).

HTH,
Marc

Hmmm... I installed both, and kind of like it. I like that it saves the
original format, while the file output of xine saves a decoded file.
Saves space :).

Of course, it doesn't exactly integrate with KDE, and 3 windows
(audacious, streamtuner, and an xterm for streamripper) are a tad
irritating, but hey, that's what virtual desktops are there for.

So being able to use streamripper from within Amarok would therefor be
the best solution. Maybe later versions of Amarok will support it. A
google search shows that it's been suggested for Summer of Code (though
it was one of many suggestions).

I was there but there wasn't file engine in the list. Seems that I've to set 
aprorriate USE flags to amarok and recompile it

Not a big problem, I understood, thanks ;)

Hmm... I would think a xine-lib USE flag, since it is xine doing the
output work. Only thing is, I don't see which one it would be. Maybe a
USE flag of something xine-lib depends on, like libsdl? I'd think this
would be enabled by default, though.

Otherwise, I'm lost. Anybody know what to do here?

Just to be safe, I'll attach the output of
$ equery uses xine-lib
At least you can compare the USE flags to yours.
