Default Play mediastream

Hi all, can somebody give me a hint, how to play this stream:

http://streams.br-online.de/bayern4klassik_2.m3u

I tried with xmms, vlc and so on, but none of them did anything!

TIA für trying!

Its a playlist file. You download, `cat` it and play each media stream with mplayer:

mplayer "http://gffstream.ic.llnwd.net/stream/gffstream_w13a"
mplayer "http://gffstream.ic.llnwd.net/stream/gffstream_w13b"

% mplayer -playlist http://streams.br-online.de/bayern4klassik_2.m3u

That is just one of many possibilities ...

It should run fine with multimedia/audacious.

It did actually run fine with mplayer, thanks!

Funny, I thought the GUI stuff would handle it better than a cli-application

I wonder, which one does the best recording-stuff?

Its true, in Windows or possibly Mac OS as well

Mplayer supports this feature out of the box. For instance, with Richard's command:

%mplayer -playlist "http://streams.br-online.de/bayern4klassik_2.m3u" -dumpstream

Once finishing recording, play the file stream.dump

%mplayer stream.dump

Works fine in XMMS. Just save the .m3u file on your harddrive. Then open it up in XMMS. It will list the streams in the playlist...you only need to use one of them.

Or you could open up the .m3u file in an editor and get the location of the stream itself and open that up.

mplayer does indeed a good job so far. But there's something else:

I want to record a webradio show every night from 11pm to midnight.

I can only think of mplayer ... &; sleep 3600; kill -TERM %1

Somebody have more elegant approach?

Fill in the APP_PARA variable and use this script with cron:

Code:
#! /bin/sh

APP_NAME=mplayer
APP_PARA=
APP_CMD="$APP_NAME $APP_PARA"
APP_PID="pgrep $APP_NAME \| head -1"

AT_PARA=midnight
AT_CMD="at $AT_PARA"

$APP_CMD &
echo "kill $($APP_PID)" | $AT_CMD

Not a bad idea! How about a little shorter

mplayer APP_PARA &
echo "pkill mplayer"|at midnight

But good idea, will do so!

Any other mplayer processes (play movie, music) running between 23pm an midnight are terminated, too!

True, but it's a mailscanner, so I frankly don't care
