Create MP3 from Internet radio?

Hello All,
Is it possible to record audio from the internet (Like BBC iPlayer) to create mp3's of programmes and concerts?
I can't seem to find a way of doing it and wondered if anyone knew how.
Thanks,
Mark

Install SoundFlower, make it the Macs' default output in the Sound prefpanel, make it the Input in Logic. Now you can play anything (iTunes, internetaudio) and Logic can record it: In Logic, hit record, switch to your internetbrowser and start whatever playback you want to record.
Just did this yesterday, works fine.

Music drop outs / stutter when listening to MP3s or Internet Radio with Verizon Media Manager

Does anybody know when I play MP3s or listen to Internet Radio I'm getting slight drop out or stutter?
I just downloaded and installed the Verizon Media Manager on a machine running Windows 7.
Any help would be appreciated.

Found this answer on DSLReports...
"This problem has reported before. It's a problem with the audio driver for 7XXX boxes that was introduced with IMG 1.9a. It also impacts iHeart radio and Pandora streaming. It is supposed to be fixed in 1.9.1, which is due sometime in the next decade."

Create MP3s from Quicktime Video

I have a Quicktime video of a friend's band and want to strip out the audio and create an MP3 of each song. What's the easiest way to do this?
I've got Quicktime 7 and Final Cut Express installed.
Thanks in advance,
T. Wise

QuickTime "Pro" can be used to "extract" the audio track (if it isn't in MPEG 1 or 2 format).
This extracted track can be dragged into your iTunes Library (or a playlist).
Use your iTunes preferences to "convert" this new audio only .mov to .mp3 format.

Audi Recording from Internet Radio

I'd like to record radio broadcasts (stereo). So far I have not succeeded because the only inputs I can choose are either the integrated Mic or Line-In. The Mic does record, but - of course - only if the Speakers are on and only Mono.
Is there a way of recording in stereo with speakers off? With Windows this is a trivial task. I was told with a Mac everything were +much easier+. Is it?
Thanks for any hint.
Franziska

Very easy with the right application!

Thank u Thompson For your kind reply. I got the problem solved. It was the the problem of Untrusted Applet as u said.Now i Have signed my applet and this appletplayer plays audio only from the server from where this applet comes and from the localmachine also.Now it is playing fine from the server.
But i have another problem , If i am asking that in the wrong forum plz forgive, I will ask it it in applet forum also.
Problem is , I have implemented a joystick with this player. The idea is to combine this player with a text editor so that user can hear audio at the same time he can type in the editor what he hear and he can rewind and forward using joystick(It is actually a footswitch controller) with his leg. This driver i got from Source forgenet works fine in my localmachine and localnetwork also.But i have to install .DLL file in every client machine. This should be avoided.When a client having no jmf and joystick in his machine tries to run this applet through the browser the required Joystick driver and jmf must be installed in client computer also.
By signing the applet and using ARCHIVE keyword i think jmf part will be ok but what about joystick driver.How i could install it in client machine.Playerapplet throws jjstck.dll not found exception
plz guide me

Create Internet Radio

Hi,
I want to create internet radio station with aac to flash streaming.
Question is: How I can delivery music aac stream to Flash Media Server?
Now I have own software which produce AAC, WMA and MP3 streaming.
It's possible to use my AAC stream as a FMS source?

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in FMS.
If your application/software has already created your content, all you need to do is to install FMS and put the media in the relevant folders/ map the folders where the media is residing.
If you want to stream directly from your application/software, then it should support RTMP , the protocol for FMS.

I want to listen to internet radio as I used to do. The selection "Radio" has gone from my list under "Music". How do I get it back again?

I want to listen to internet radio as I used to do. The selection "Radio" has gone from my list under "Music". How do I get it back again?

I don't know if this is what you really want, but I created a Playlist for Radio, and add some of the stations I like from websites. (If you click on the web-links they load into iTunes in the Sidebar). And you can also add individual Radio stations from the top right,(under Apple) to a Playlist. That's the only way I know to have them in the Sidebar.
Z_ZS-B, You also helped me to find the old Radio list! I didn't even know it was up on the right, under Apple. I haven't liked this version of iTunes so I hadn't even bothered to try and figure it out until now, but because I just bought a my first iPod Shuffle I'm determined to bend this version to my will. ;-)

Please walk me thru creating a playlist in iTunes for internet radio stations

Please walk me thru creating a playlist in itunes specifically for internet radio. The itunes help page is not detail enough.

Create a new playlist
Open iTunes
Click the + button in the lower left corner of the window.
Name your playlist
Add radio stations:
On the left side of the iTunes window, at the top is the "Library" group. Under "Library" should be an item called "Radio." Click that to open the radio listings. If you do not see "Radio" in iTunes, go to the menu bar at the top of your screen and open iTunes > Preferences. In the preferences window, under the General tab, make sure Show > Radio is checked and click OK.
Find a station in the Radio listing.
Drag that station from the listing on the right side of the window to the new playlist you created on the left side, and drop.
You now have a playlist with a streaming radio station in it.
To add stations not listed in the iTunes radio listings:
Locate the stream URL (if you need further help, post which radio station you want exactly)
Copy the URL to your clipboard (command+C)
open iTunes
In the menu bar at the top of your screen, click on Advnaced > Open Stream...
Paste the URL (command+V)
Click OK
Your new radio stream should now appear in a playlist called "Internet Songs." Open that playlist.
Drag the station from the Internet Songs playlist into your own playlist.

Internet radio from Apple TV suddenly not working!!! Please help!

I used to be able to put internet radio stations in a playlist and sync to ATV, and they would show up on the ATV and I could select and listen to them! From what I've read on some other forums, after version 2.02 came out, you could even do that and not have your computer on and itunes open, and could still access and listen to the radio stations on ATV! Which is great!
I hadn't tried this in a while and decided to get the 2.02 update and try. Now, when I select the playlist with the radio stations in it (on ATV) I get a message - "contains no songs"!!
Does anybody know what is going on with this feature? It seems to work for some people but not others! Some think that it stopped working for people with itunes 7.6.1 and higher!! (I have 7.6.2 and OSX 10.4.11)
Just when I had a plan on really taking advantage of this feature, it stopped working!
Can anybody help with this topic? Do people from Apple read and answer these posts?
Thanks,
SB

Wow! That surprised me! I had already tried something very similar to that, and it didn't work!
What you said works! Thanks so much!
And in addition, playing the internet radio from my ATV (rather than from computer & thru airtunes) seems to work better! Before, (using airtunes), some stations would cut out / skip etc... and it doesn't seem to happen now! And I can now, not even have my computer on!
My understanding is that if I ever turn off the ATV, I'll have to do the procedure that you said again correct?
Thanks so much again!
It would be nice if Apple could now have the details / info that shows up in itunes when you play a internet radio station (song info etc...) show up on the screen on ATV - right?!!!
(for me, right now - just says: "Proton Radio - unknown album")

Is it possible to create a link that I can place on a website to an internet radio stream on iTunes?

Yes, but it WON'T play through the browser. It'll require any visitor who clicks it to have iTunes installed, and it'll open iTunes as soon as they do.

Some internet radio stations with http protocol and mp3 format not working in AIR 2.0

First, i am sorry for my bad english. When I publish swf for Flash 10 player all stations in my list works. If I publish them for AIR 2.0 stations with adress end ":XXXX", where XXXX is port number, they cannot work. What is problem? Thanks in advance.

Perhaps, in the previous post I wasn't clear enough, so I'll try to make it better: I am using the Adobe Flash CS5 and AS3. I wrote the script for listening internet radio stations. In the station list I named only those that use HTTP protocol and mp3 format, cause I know the limits of Flash in audio streamings. If I publish FLA file in SWF for Flash 10 player all the stations can be listened.. If swf file is made for AIR 2.0 there's a problem: the stations with adress http://xxx.xxx:xxx/<something> can be listened, and those without extension behind the port number (:xxx) can not. Main parts of the script are:
startButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, listen);
req.url= "<adress>";
snd = new Sound();
snd.load(req);
private function listen(event:MouseEvent):void {
req = snd.play();
Example:
adress=http://scfire-ntc-aa08.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1010 - working
adress=http://www.radionovosti.rs:443/radionovosti56s.mp3 - working
adress=http://sh1.beotel.net:8002 - not working
adress=http://77.105.36.58:8881 - not working
It would be great if someone of Adobe employers explain to me what is the problem. Thanks.

Download mp3's from ESPN Radio Insider

With my Windows PC, I could go to ESPN's Radio Insider and download Podcasts from their radio shows each day. They have 2 choices, download and play. With Windows, I could right click on download and save mp3 files to a folder. With the Macbook, I click on download and it plays, I'm not given a choice to download to a folder. I'm sure this is a stupid question, however how can I download the podcast in lieu of just playing it? Thank you.

Hi SlamDunk!
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
There's two ways, it appears, as I just tried downloading the podcasts.
Option #1: Subscribe to it via iTunes and download from within the iTunes client. There's a little icon that says "iTunes" and upon clicking it, brought me into iTunes and directly to the page where I could subscribe to the podcast.
Option #2: Right-Click (or Control-Click) on the "Download" icon and select "Download Linked File"
http://espnradio.espn.go.com/espnradio/podcast/index
That's the URL I visited and the listen options are below each podcast. (Play / Download / iTunes / RSS)

Everyone. Do a search on "radio" and you'll find plenty of threads on this topic. We all hope Apple will fix this in an update .... it would be nice to have radio playlist that works and doesn't disappear!
