This section is about how to enable listening to radio from
|
|

First, you have to recompile MPlayer using <filename>./configure</filename> with
|
|
<option>--enable-radio</option> and (if you want capture support)
|
|
<option>--enable-radio-capture</option>.

Make sure your tuner works with another radio software in Linux, for

example <application>XawTV</application>.

Use the <option>channels</option> option. An example:
|
|
<screen>-radio channels=104.4-Sibir,103.9-Maximum</screen>
|
|
Explanation: With this option, only the 104.4 and 103.9 radio stations
|
|
will be usable. There will be a nice OSD text upon channel switching,
|
|
displaying the channel's name. Spaces in the channel name must be
|
|
replaced by the "_" character.

There are several ways of capturing audio. You can grab the sound either using
|
|
your sound card via an external cable connection between video card and line-in,
|
|
or using the built-in ADC in the saa7134 chip. In the latter case, you have to
|
|
load the <systemitem>saa7134-alsa</systemitem> or
|
|
<systemitem>saa7134-oss</systemitem> driver.

<application>MEncoder</application> cannot be used for audio capture, because it
|
|
requires a video stream to work. So your can either use
|
|
<application>arecord</application> from ALSA project or
|
|
use <option>-ao pcm:file=file.wav</option>. In the latter case you
|
|
will not hear any sound (unless you are using a line-in cable and
|
|
have switched line-in mute off).

Passing sound over the PCI bus from the radio card's internal ADC.

In this example the tuner is used as a second sound card
|
|
(ALSA device hw:1,0). For saa7134-based cards either the
|
|
saa7134-alsa or saa7134-oss module must be loaded.
