We are going to have to agree to disagree here. I appreciate your persistence in offering help, its refreshing to be able to get an answer at all on a forum asking for help. However, you are diminishing my ability to get the answer I am looking for, by maintaining that you have answered my question.
I can only use analogies, because I think you and I are on a completely different wavelength. Let me try one more time, and then I want to restate my question.
If someone asked you:
?Hey, I need a WYSWYG Word Processor software that is easy to use and doesn?t require any special knowledge, you just open it and start typing, I want it to be compatible with everything and not require me to convert file types. I don?t mind buying a commercial product.?
My guess is you would not answer immediately ?MS WORD?, instead you would give him VI, or EDLIN, or some kind of linux based open source office application that requires someone to convert and edit, etc. because you are biased against a tool like Word. Correct?
So what you gave me, Audacity, I did check out. It?s a sound editor. The theory of leaving up a 24 hour a day recording, and then cutting down the files and editing it, is not even close to what I seek.
What I seek, and why I may have to start a whole new thread, because I really do need help is quite simply:
There is a radio station located at www.monsters.fm that allows listeners to click on a link to listen to their show from 6am to 11am mon ? fri. What I want to do is set up a permanent schedule using a software product that requires no programming. I am willing to pay up to 200 bucks (US) for software that will do this.
Once I supply it with the link, I would like to set up a schedule for each hour of the program, so that the file is chopped into nice easy to move one sound files. I don?t have to reset the program, or do anything other than check the directory and move the files to my PSP and delete the old ones.
That is all I want. There is internet radio products like audio extract pro that I?ve already checked into that don?t do this, because they rely on some kind of special list of radio stations. Its pretty close though.
Typically, I?ve been given responses that sound something like this (and I exaggerate a little here to make my point) ?What you want to do is first download the java runtime environment and then set up a consys.cfg file, and then convert to mpeg-4 codec but make sure the file overrun buffers aren?t set to 30, otherwise you?ll have a ram overrun buffer mode on your 44 mhz, and that?s obviously bad. Now once you install that, then install the freeware fossil driver, and load that in your autoexec.bat, then convert that to a .exe using a CC+++-/-* editor that you can get in dark basic, but make sure you strip the spyware from it, then use bit torrent to download the ??
I don?t want to do any of that. I want to buy a single piece of software that I point to the correct url, schedule to record the show mon-fri, it makes unique file names and I just go in and move the files. Set it and forget it. Simple.
Yes?
