I am looking to record online radio tunes onto CDs for listening. Also am interested in recording videos I have seen online. What do I need to do before I am able to do this? Have a new computer so I am still not familiar with how to do this after reading info from their site. Anyone ever do this and if so is it possible?
I don't think you can go from streaming directly to CD, but you can record the stream to your hard drive, then burn it to CD. I use a program called "Freecorder" to capture the audio stream. There are a lot of video recorders too. "Freecorder" ^ ^ will also record video but is somewhat limited. The latest video recorder I've been using is an add-on to the Firefox browser and is more versatile than any of the other ones I've used. (I've never paid for any of them). https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/963217/?src=api
Thanks Fizzly. Next question, is it easy to record onto your hard drive then transfer to cd via freecorder? Real new to this but I have burned CDs from ITunes before so there are a few brain cells left for simple functions!!
I don't remember if you can use Freecorder to burn CDs, but I don't think so. There are all kinds of (free) burners available though. I think Windows even comes with one although I've never used it. Also, you can burn DVDs from downloaded videos if that interests you. I use (free) Sothink DVD Creator, Burn DVD, Any Video to DVD
