Is it possible to capture, in WAV, MP3 or anything else, a web-radio station aas I listen to it?

This is really two questions: 1) is it possible (even in theory)?
2) can MJ8 do it?

[Bruce]

I know, I know - RTFM.  I did and found my own answer.  No need to reply to my question.

Well Bruce, Share it, I never knew and never thaught about trying to find out. I dont listen to radio much except I like to listen to the net radio from germany, so how can I do it?

Here is the final solution to recording anything you want that comes from the internet. Go to http://www.xaudiotools.com and check out the "Advanced MP3WMA Recorder" this little program will monitor and record directly from the digital output of any sound card any streaming  radio, music or other audio file from the internet or any sound source including your CD. You have a choice of compression methods including the Windows 8 Media encoder. The program is easy to use and has a slick interface. It is shareware and you can try it our before you buy it. I checked all over the web and this program is the best solution.

Robert,

You can also do it within MJ.  In his second post, Robert wrote:   "I know, I know - RTFM. I did and found my own answer. No need to reply to my question.".  RFTM is one of those internet acronyms. It means Read the ... manual.

So... it's in the help file somewhere.  I think under How to...Record.  There is probably a section there on how to record radio.  I know it's somewhere, because when I asked the same question a while back, someone gave me really good instructions, and that's what I stuck in the help file!

Thanks, I will take advantage of some rare down time and go through the help file now.


Lise? I was browsing the radio listing in MJ, there are stations that require RealPlayer, does or is MJ supporting this in the part of MJ, I dont have nor will I ever put RealCrap back on my syst but was wondering if there is a work around for this. Thanks.

Hi Robert,

There are 2 fairly recent threads on Real here (search for past 3 or 4 days).  To listen to Real files, you need Real on your system.  MJ doesn't play them natively.  I'm in the same boat as you.  I don't want Real on my system either, however, in one of those threads, someone posted a link to Real archives, and I may go ahead and install an older version--I'm assuming they don't include spyware?

You can also do what many of my friends are doing: email those radio stations and tell them you will never ever listen to them as long as they only offer Real format files.  Ask them to at least include Windows Media.  Long shot, and why should they care, but if they get a number of e-mails, they might consider it.
