Recording radio programmes
Can either the Humax or the Panasonic boxes be used to record radio programmes? I consider Freesat's radio EPG to be a big advantage over Sky.
Thanks Counterpoint |

Thanks for the replies. For anyone who loves radio, and lives in a rural (or poor reception) area, I think this is a massive selling point for Freesat.

I use my freesat to record radio, it's great for archiving live gigs & music documentaries, it's a shame the BBC don't series link programs.

but you may find a lot of radio progs (BBC) are on podcast - if you have a PC, you can set them to be automatically downloaded as RSS feeds
eg I have 2 years history of Radio 1 Chart Show, The Archers, Fighting Talking etc |

another big bonus I find is the recordings can be transfered to a USB device and re-encoded to MP3 format and then played on a portable device whilst partaking in other activities.
MP2 files play without re-encoding on my in-car mp3 player, and on my portable, and my bedroom mini-system. Some players do require them to be renamed to mp3 to work. |

Editing sound files recorded from FoxSat

I just demux the audio to an mp2 file (using tsMuxer), which is much quicker, and no quality loss
MP2 files play without re-encoding on my in-car mp3 player, and on my portable, and my bedroom mini-system. Some players do require them to be renamed to mp3 to work. What I would like now is some way to do a bit of trimming on the resultant files. I tried some of the programs that I found with Google but they didn't want to recognise the tsMuxer output files. All help greatly appreciated |

You could try Audacity tho you'll need the mp3 codecs.
