development blog for the wicked stuff we encounter

I really like to listen to Internet radios, for example www.radioparadise.com. I can easily check and download all cool music I hear - well, it turned out that it can be much more easier :) You need to download RadioRecorder from http://ng.netgate.net/~snowcat/RadioRecorder.html. with this little nifty program, you can get and save all streams to mp3 format, and it can populate the files as an iTunes playlist, so you can upload it to your iPod as well :) I found one error with this cool application: it can't figure out the track name, so the filename was just a generated one; so I opened the source in XCode and in Recording.m @ 233 I modified to: [req setValue:@"iTunes/6.1 (Macintosh; N; PPC)" forHTTPHeaderField:@"User-Agent"]; with this little change (from 4.1 to 6.1), the Shoutcast server will send the full headers to our application, and we'll have the fine filenames and MP3 ids! :)
