How to record a stream and start a new outputXXX.avi/mp3 for each new stream title ?
thanks

FrenchNoob,

I use mplayer to capture record radio streams regularly. I have a script for each stream I want to capture, and use crontab to execute the scripts. The scripts write unique file names based on the current date.

The syntax is:
/usr/bin/mplayer <url> -ao pcm:file=outfile.wav -vc dummy -vo null -quiet

As you might have guessed, this dumps the stream to a WAV. Each script uses LAME to convert to MP3.

A quick Google search shows that a combination of the -ao and -vo switches are required to record a multimedia stream to an AVI file. I have never recorded video, so I can't help you there.

Hope this helps at least a little.

Regards,
opc

I found this http://www.bitcartel.com/radiolover/ ; but a backend (console only) would be what linux needs.
