<p class="p">Most stations that stream MP3 or OGG music can be recorded. This is
accomplished through the command-line tool <span class="app">streamripper</span>.  If you
select a station and press <span class="gui">● record</span>, a console
window should appear, where streamripper shows its progress.</p>
<p class="p">You can <span class="link"><a href="configuration.html" title="Settings dialog">configure the recording tool</a></span> according to audio types again.</p>

<p class="p">The <span class="cmd">xterm -e</span> prefix brings up the terminal popup. If you want
silent downloads in the background instead of seeing its progress, remove
the xterm call.</p>

<p class="p">To configure a default download directory, use the <span class="cmd">-d</span> option to streamripper.
For example <span class="cmd">xterm -e "streamripper -d /media/music/"</span> would use an absolute path.
Else it downloads to the current working directory (often your HOME path),
and creates one directory per radio station there.</p>

for recording ICEcast/SHOUTcast streaming servers.</p>

table.  There create a new recording MIME type <span class="var">audio/mod+zip</span> with
a command like <span class="cmd">xterm -e wget %srv</span>.  Copy it alike for
<span class="var">audio/it+zip</span> and <span class="var">audio/xm+zip</span> to cover the most common
file types.  Using <span class="cmd">curl</span> would also work of course.  </p></div></div>
