KRadio is a comfortable KDE radio application. The initial release was written by Frank Schwanz. In Jan. 2002 I took over the project to add some new features. In the meantime, kradio "survived" a complete modular rewrite in order to support a comfortable plugin concept.

current release: snapshot 2006-11-12, status: beta (ChangeLog)
 

Please test and report problems and errors! Binary Packages are available for Debian/sid i386 and Debian/sid amd64, SuSE 10.1/amd64, SuSE 10.1/i386, SuSE 10.2/amd64 and SuSE 10.2/i386.

Current Features:

  • Pre-Recording - no longer worry about starting recording too late: The last <to-be-configured> seconds before the decision are captured, too.
  • Improved Timeshift playing - just press pause when you get interrupted
  • Active Playback: For cards that don't use the line-in loop the sound can be captured from a special device and played back on the sound card
  • ALSA Plugin
  • support for V4L and V4L2 based radio card drivers, including PVR cards (/dev/video24)
  • MP3 and Ogg/Vorbis recording (libmp3lame and libogg/libvorbis required)
  • database with station preset files, station search
  • lirc support
  • alarms (weekday specific if you wish), stations and volume may be assigned, types: start/stop play, start/stop recording
  • sleep countdown functions
  • docking menu, includes menu entries for preferred stations
  • quickbar, toolbar with buttons for preferred stations
  • icons for stations in quickbar, display, etc.
  • error logging window instead of nerving messageboxes:)
  • dynamic plugin library architecture, kradio is ready for new radio types (e.g. internet radio), your own radio display, etc.
 

Planned features for future:
  • internet radio
  • client/server architecture with remote plugin support
  • DCOP support
