    OK there is a show on Sunday nights that several terrestrial radio stations also web cast.
    Anyone know how to save the web casts as a file to be listened to later?

    Two options that I know of.
    There is a free plug-n called FreeCorder. I have not used it and I think it is for I.E. only.

    this may do what you want just fine and is free.

    What I personally use is a program called TotalRecorder. I record a radio feed at work recording talk shows all weekend. I then listen to them when I have time. It has full scheduling etc.. I bought this and it as well worth the $18.

    Of course you will have to have the stream already running for these to record it.

    There was a plugin that I don't remember the name of that was for winamp

    I don't have anything I want to record, but TotalRecorder is spot on. If I come up with something, I'll defiantly get the pro version.

    Freecorder3 is a NO-GO
    though it works, (now for FF too) you have to select a station form their list of stations / feeds and the stations I want are not in their list.

    They have a create your own feed but it can not see JAVA style pop up players (which these stations are on)

    example:

    was a no-go for freeplayer3 in create your own player.

    I know part of my sound drive allows for a record what I hear, and somehow this could flow to one of these plugins.
    Never played with it much

    TotalRecorder NAILED IT!

    I downloaded the pro version (trial for now so it injects a 1sec noise burst every 60 sec....) but it's unlimited trial and the PRO version ($38.00) has a scheduler so leave the PC on set it for midnight EST set the station set the duration and BINGO.

    I messed with the scheduler set it ahead 5 min to record for 5 min and it worked fine.... will now try to capture what I want and report success or not when done.


    Thanks guys.

    The standard version has the scheduler, I use it all the time 🙂
    There is nothing in the pro version you should need over the standard one.

    Ok cool, if the scheduler works Sunday night I may just buy the standard version.
    Thanks for the link again, I'm psyched.

    Thanks for the input Paladin, schedule worked fine I divided the cast in to two - one hour recordings and then to shut down the PC - all went well.

    After I was able to import in to itunes and then in to the nano..... 🙇
