Hello all on my windows pc i use Raima Radio to record radio shows as you can set timers and it will do all the work so wondered if there was anything to do the same job on linux

Fingers crossed so i can change over another pc in the house over to linux :D
 
You can do this in VLC... have a read of this article: http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/60700

VLC allows you to record network streams via a built-in scheduling feature. In fact, you can schedule not only recordings, but also transcoding operations and network broadcasts. There are two ways to create a new schedule in VLC: you can either use VLC's Telnet interface, or you can use the VLM interface through VLC's Web front end. Although the latter offers a graphical interface, it can be confusing in use. The Telnet option, on the other hand, allows you to control VLC and create schedules via the command-line interface. Let's say you want to start recording a network stream at a specified time and stop recording after an hour. First, enable the Telnet interface by choosing Settings -> Add Interface -> Telnet Interface. Use the Terminal to connect to VLC: telnet localhost 4212 (the default password is "admin"). Then use a series of command lines like the following:

new record broadcast enabled input http://88.191.49.63:443
output #std{access=file,mux=ts,dst=/home/user/recording_2007-05-25.mp3}
new start schedule enabled date 2007/05/25-11:00:00 append control record play
new end schedule enabled date 2007/05/25-12:00:00 append control record stop
