Is this only up on a certain schedule?  I'm presently getting a 401 error, but if I'm right StreamRipper should be able to record this directly, without resorting to nasty, lossy digital-to-analog-to-digital recording methods.

well, the way i've been doing stuff for the past two years is just digitally recording my computer's output, which may or may not be exactly waht streamripper does i have no idea.  in any case, no analog is introduced into the process.  i'm gonna try to record it too, so hopefully between the two of us nothing will go terribly wrong.  no promises that i'll be able to do it yet, i'm not sure what my schedule is like this week.

Yeah, that's the lossy digtal-to-analog-to-digital way I was talking about; StreamRipper actually downloads the streaming MP3, so it's not lossy, but a direct copy of the audio data.

In cases such as these where the bitrate is probably sub-128kbps the quality difference between a DAC-ADC recording and a direct one is likely negligible, but I like to avoid it if I can, on principle more than anything else.

Still, is the stream currently playing for anyone?  I'm still getting a 401 error.

okay, i asked dan this was his reply:

hey yeah actually i think they only run sundays and wednesdays... check their show programming on the website and you can tune in to their regular programming tomorrow to be sure that you're getting the feed. if not you can contact veronica at fartoocanadian@hotmail.com and troubleshoot the technical shit with her.

all best... hope this works on friday!
daniel

so there you have it.  i guess give it a try today.

So it's 3:30pm PST/6:30pm EST, and finally the stream's working.  StreamRipper seems to record it without a hitch, though I'm not sure if the barely-audible nature of the stream is due to the music being played or the 56kbps bitrate (the former, I assume).

Yeah, this is nice and all, but what I'd really like to hear is aimless, start-stop bass noodling.

Well, that answered that, I guess.

So there's more to come, or did I misunderstand?

That was a sudden return to 401.

EDIT:  And now it seems to be up, but nothing's on.....

as i feared i was on the busy side of things tonight... from the sounds of it i'm not exactly sure what to expect in terms of a recording, but if one exists in any form (listenable or not), i certainly would like to hear.

More like, too bad their server crash/issues halfway through it seem to have corrupted the first half of the show I was recording.  :'(

herein lies the advantage of jason and i's record the stereo mix in cooledit method, i suppose.

though thanks for trying to record, im anxious to hear it... i was hoping i could get back from my show in time, but no luck.

Yeah, the file's fine from that long silence after it came back up, and so I've got the very end of that song he was playing when they must've realized the volume was down or something, then "Sao Paulo" and on to the end from there, about forty minutes or so.  And yeah, I know much of the earlier stuff was already recorded and available, I just hate it when things I'm trying to do don't turn out. :-x

Certainly, though I've never seen StreamRipper choke so badly on stream problems before.  Weird stuff.
