  • [gentoo-user] how to record mp3 stream

    From John Covici@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jul 1 11:20:01 2024
    Hi. I am interested in recording an mp3 stream in the background and
    being able to specify start/stop time, etc.

    I looked at Google, but just found a package called audio-recorder,
    but I am not sure its currently maintained and its not in the gentoo
    packages.

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    There is arecord from the package media-sound/alsa-utils, there's ffmpeg and even cvlc if you want/prefer to use CLI tools, but as far as I know they will all require some scripting to control start/stop time if you're not doing it manually. Will probably require transcoding into MP3 from raw PCM audio capture (e.g. from pcm_s16le).

    You could always record over a longer duration and then chop the bits at the start/end you don't wish to retain.

    You can just dump the stream directly. Use an at-command or a cron-job
    to run wget or whatever, and then kill that job when you want the
    recording to stop. All players I've tried play such a dump just fine.
