Just thought I'd post this in case anyone was interested....
I'm using a Raspberry Pi Zero, a $5 computer roughly the size of a stick of
Juicy Fruit gum, to capture the weekly broadcasts of Star's End and
Galactic Travels.
I installed a package called Streamripper. Then I set up some Cron jobs to
schedule Streamripper to run at the correct times.
The great thing about recording the show this way is that it does *not*
transcode the stream. It captures the mp3 stream exactly as broadcast
(128k).
Also, the Pi Zero draws so little current and is so stable it can be left
on 24/7. I finally got my Pi Zero in early January (they sold out quickly
and were hard to find for a long time) and it has been running and
recording perfectly since then.
I can give more details if anyone else wants to do this.
