I'm using this and it works well.

Thanks but I can only get it working through winamp. It wont pic up anything I am listening too through aol. Any ideas.

Obviously you could do it the crude way going from line out to line in but want to avoid that because of loss of quality.

Sound recorder won't do much more than a couple of minutes though.

You don't have to record it in mp3 format, I recorded some radio a while ago dumped as a massive wav file then encoded to mp3 later. You could also burn a wav to disc to listen to in the car.

What did you use for that?

I recorded actual radio broadcasts using TotalRecorder, I think

Shouldnt think so. It sounds dam good on the computer.The AOL stations with the Platinum 2MB package sound pretty much like I have just got a cd on.

Here is another but it is not free. Although the advantage would be hat it should work with AOL too.

Sound recorder only records a minute of audio. What I'd do is use another wav editor + set the recording properties under Control Panel from Line In to I think it's Stereo Mixer.

http://www.stationripper.com/ and it's free
This is what i use, will record multiple stations into mp3 format, the ads are taken out occationally.. best to record the high bandwidth stations for better quality. It also Lables the song, saves them into radio station files for your differnt tastes, the Full version will let you record 600 stations!!! better buy a new hard drive first!!

Do you think that will work with AOHELL?

AOL is'nt shoutcast even though it owns win amp.. will check it out!


ERrrr Nope.. will now check if you can bypass it

 

[Thmsshaun]

Having said that I would imagine there are plenty of station I can use from that anway. Will give it a try when I get home.

Winamp 5.1 released 9/1/05
• New! Rip/Encode music into aacPlus, MP3, WMA & AAC w/ Pro
• New! AOL Radio featuring XM
• New! SHOUTcast Wire Podcast Directory
• New! Predixis MusicMagic Playlists

Forget what i said about AOL Shoucast, Station ripper uses winamp to listen, but records directly from browser window.
You could try some of these,

Pleasure!

Q. Does your Motor CD player, play DVD discs full of MP3's or Standard 700mb CDR Discs.. i ask, as my CD changer will not play DVD's with them on.

Point 2, as i've not got round to resolving this yet. If i burn MP3 files back into audio tracks on standard CD........ is it possible to burn more onto a DVD (hence having 4 cd's on one DVD) it may be (answering my own question) my cd reader cant handle DVD disks full stop. Sorry if this sound geekish.

Point 3 does the Command cd slot do anything other than the sat nav disk??

Yes you can burn mp3's to CD as audio but you will be back to 74 or 80 mins. This is not possible with DVD. i.e. there is no DVD-Audio format. Some (very few) automotive changers can read DVD-R's with mp3's burned on as data, so basically 4.7 gb of mp3. There are of course more changers that can read CD-R'swith 700mb worth of mp3's, but I'm not sure if any of the factory Merc units can.
