Internet Radio Class

Enterprise Russell

 

The class is not hands on, it is show and tell, with internet links included in the notes and on a special web copy of the notes (www.ernz.org/irc ) NOTE: do not type into your browser in upper case.

Use the web page to enable you to click on the link to access the item being covered.

 

The ultimate goal:  A simple, free program that lets me select the programs I want to access and a means of recording the received program and playing it back.

 

Let’s look:

 

Some broad concepts

  • Must have broadband
  • Must have audio players
    • As a minimum Windows Media Player V9 or later
    • WinAmp
    • Possibly Real Player, MP3Pro or itunes
    • DirectX 9.0
  • Stations usually transmit in WMP, Real or MP3 – All digital signals
  • Speeds vary – simple relationship between speed and quality
    • Speed better than 20Kb – Higher if not WMP 128K is common
    • Signal is normally sent in blocks, so there is a buffer to capture signal and play it back at uniform speed.
    • Distance is not an issue, BUT sometimes site is full or not operating.

Generally you can do email or other non audio internet stuff at a slightly slower speed while listening.

Listener’s requirements vary. They can range from a single station and no recording, to a large number of stations with recording capability.

Let’s visit a radio website –

www.bbc.co.uk/radio

 note vast array of offerings – and archives and note Radio 1,2,3,4 and all local stations are only in real –  Radio 5/6/7 offer real or wma.

No recording directly – But there is a free solution:

http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/download.asp

Select Mp3 Player/Zen/Zeno Nano  Then Windows XP press enter

Select item 3 (52.2 MB)   - takes time to install - Also rips CD's

    NOTE: Any other system sounds will also be recorded if you are multi tasking.

Can paste links on Desk top if I do not want more than a few stations.

 

Let’s look at some free packaged radio sites.

            FREE! The DRS 2006 Webreceiver
