    What tools are used today on Linux for ripping audio from radiostations so they end up as mp3's with artist & title?

    It's called RECORDING......and you'll need to do some typing (artist & title).

    Well, some people who know what they are doing call it ripping...

    $ streamripper http://176.31.107.8:8161/listen.pls?sid=1 -u FreeAmp/2.x
    Connecting...
    stream: Golden Oldies Radio
    server name: SHOUTcast/
    declared bitrate: 128
    meta interval: 8192

    Nice, but get one big file, and no titles...

  12. Yes, one big file, no titles. But that might be preferable in some circumstances. Oh, by the way, press q to quit downloading.

    Here's a variation that plays while downloading:
    Code:
    ffmpeg -i http://176.31.107.8:8161/stream -c copy output.mp3 -f nut - | ffplay.exe -
    Output is sent to both a file and to ffplay.

    Thanks, that will probably work in Windows, not in Linux...

  14. Oh, I didn't notice this thread was in the Linux subforum. The ffmpeg command line will probably work in Linux with minor changes. Like removing the .exe from ffplay.exe.

    a player that has a built-in RECORD or SAVE button (and maybe pop-up to ask what file) would be popular. i run pulseaudio. it has a way to recapture the analog audio back to digital and save that. half as good. i'd rather save the bits going into the D/A.

    If you don't like the spectrogram you can get waveforms instead by specifying "-showmode 1":

    Code:
    ffmpeg -i http://176.31.107.8:8161/stream -c copy output.mp3 -f nut - | ffplay.exe -showmode 1 -
    "-showmode 2" is the spectrogram. https://ffmpeg.org/ffplay.html (search for showmode).
