Optical Line in recording - creating separate tracks

(1/3) > >>

Arkle:
Hi All,

Can anyone enlighten me as to how I can record (radio programmes) from satellite tv through the optical line in and have them record as separate tracks?
If I set six to copy to iRiver iHP140 they copy as one long file needing to be split on the pc.
Sony can do it on their minidisc players through the optical line in.  All six programmes would record as six separate MP3 files.
It would be great to know if it can be done and how to do it using Roxbox and also the iRiver software.

Thank you,
Arkle

Hi
Can anyone tell me if it's possible to set the iRiver iHP140 to record a number of (radio) programmes from satellite hard drive using the optical line in and have them record as separate individual tracks and not as one long track?

Sony can do it with their optical line in minidisc players.  Say I set ssix radio programmes to plaly out then all six recordings would record as six separate individual tracks.  Like they would on a DVD recorder.

Thank you,

Arkle

you can split into files manually or automatically.

manual: while recording, press record to start a new file
automatic: set options to split in time or size. It might be possible to use the trigger function to split as well - not sure though

mborus:
Sony's MD recorders understand the track-change-signal in the digital stream.
Rockbox doesn't, so there's no direct way. I don't know if this is a hardware
or software limitation. It would be a cool feature.

You can define triggers that will change the file, if there's a longer pause between each track
(or if you insert a blank track into the playlist between each file)

If you're recording directly into mp3, cutting the files manually using
mp3directcut (http://mpesch3.de1.cc/) on the PC might be a better idea.
