Helping Broadcast Radio with Linux (Linux Journal)

[Posted September 29, 2003 by ris]

Linux Journal looks at the possibilities of building an automated broadcast radio station using Linux. "RFPI downloads much of its program material from the Internet--using a Linux system, of course. Rather than save the material on the computer, RFPI saves it on mini-disks. Broadcasts, then, are done with a live announcer filling in between pre-recorded material. The live broadcast also is recorded on tape for re-broadcast later in the day. In the RFPI example, the only missing link to full automation is some software."
