Grab hundreds of radio stations simultaneously.
This repository shows the source code of a multiprocessor capable recorder app. A documented example runs on my eisenmp framework.
- Class implementation __init__.py allows external modules (e.g. blacklist) to manipulate instances
- Blacklist module ghetto_blacklist.py JSON records can be merged with my EisenRadio DB dump
- Threaded HTTP server __main__.py is switching the Backend and feeds the Frontend to run a show
- AAC files cut from stream are repaired on the fly with my aacRepair

'Settings.ini' is the config file for GhettoRecorder. INI files consist of sections to divide different settings.:
[STATIONS] anime_jp = http://streamingv2.shoutcast.com/japanimradio-tokyo [GLOBAL] blacklist_enable = True save_to_dir = f:\54321
[STATIONS] custom radio name and radio connection information (can be pls or m3u playlist)
[GLOBAL] blacklist status and the custom parent directory location

http://localhost:1242/option 'Change record parent path'
1 -- New parent path for recorded radios. Write to config.
2 -- Back to Main Menu
Enter your choice: 1
Write a new path to store files
..settings.ini [GLOBAL] section: {'blacklist_enable': 'True', 'save_to_dir': 'f:\\31'}
Enter a new path, OS syntax (f:\10 or /home ) -->:
The default path is the directory of the module. In most cases you want to store grabbed files somewhere else.
Write a new blacklist option to settings.ini file
..settings.ini [GLOBAL] section: {'blacklist_enable': 'True', 'save_to_dir': 'f:\\31'}
1 -- blacklist on (don't write title if already downloaded)
2 -- blacklist off
3 -- Back to Main Menu
Enter your choice: 1
blacklist is ON: settings.ini file
Existing titles are not recorded again and again.
file name is "blacklist.json" in the same folder as "settings.ini"
..settings.ini [GLOBAL] section: {'blacklist_enable': 'True', 'save_to_dir': 'f:\\31'}
Hit Enter to leave -->:
Blacklist writing can be switched on/off.
Titles are listed for each of the radios and can be deleted to 'unlist' them.
File name is
blacklist.json and always in the same folder as 'settings.ini'.Write Path to settings.ini and blacklist.json file
Enter a new path, OS syntax (f:\10 or /home ) -->: F:\44
created: F:\44
..settings.ini [GLOBAL] section: {'blacklist_enable': 'True'}
Hit Enter to leave -->:
You can store your config file 'settings.ini' somewhere on the file system.
Default place for grabbed files is the mentioned folder.
If a custom save path is written to config, this path is used.
Write a path to aac files. Only aac files will be touched.
..settings.ini [GLOBAL] section: {'blacklist_enable': 'True', 'save_to_dir': 'f:\\31'}
Enter a path, OS syntax (f:\10 or /home ) -->:f:\6aac

The repair option uses a folder name as input.
Repaired files are stored in 'aac_repair' sub folder.
Cut bytes count is shown at the end of the line.
Repair can fail if the file is corrupted not only at start or end.
