Alternative to XMTuner for recording Sirius?

[jlatenight]

I have an older machine that can't handle the .net framework (long story, but "buy a newer PC" is not the answer I'm looking for). Is there an alternative to XM Tuner that will do the same thing so I can record Sirius given the current issues with the built-in Replay method?

You could try SiriusXMStreamer (http://www.permanence.com/sirius/) - I have no idea if it works with Replay A/V, but since it performs a similar function, it might.

Oops...it, too requires Microsoft .Net 3.5 Framework, so that apparently won't work for you either.

It does work with AV, however, you do need one extra step.
Right mouse click channel
Select Channel URL
Select ASX
Then add it the same way as you do with XMTuner

I guess the one mention is now down like xmtuner. Is there a Applian software other than Replay 8 that can record XM sirius? Are there other streaming downloads like "XMTuner?" or are we finally finished recording xm? email me at [email protected] thanks.

Everyone is being frightened-off by SXM going out-of-its-way to make it a violation of U.S. federal law to muck with the streams. I, too, am using some seriously-kludgy systems involving virtual machines, various freeware software, macro apps that move the mouse, etc., etc. to get an occasional recording.

Of course, Applian is in this discussion rather between a rock-and-a-hard-place, since they need to abide by the same laws and might even be a bit...concerned...about allowing a discussion on how to work around the issues. I am considering creating a private area for discussion of an open-sourced solution on one of the discussion boards I operate, but even that might be considered a violation. Seems the corporate interests like Adobe have managed to chill the notion of "free speech" in the U.S.

You are able to use Replay Music. It is an audio capture and it will not tag and split the music. You might want to give that a try.

Hi Cheryl, I see that this is comment is from January, just wondering - will Replay Music still work with Sirius XM's new internet player? I discovered that the new internet player audio doesn't get detected as 'Record Audio from Speakers' anymore, I guess they've found a way to block that somehow. Does Replay Music get around that or no?

It will record but not on a schedule and it will not tag and split due to how they stream. Each computer is different as to how long it can record without a split so you would need to experiment to see how long of a successful recording you can use. Give it a try and see.

Thank you Cheryl, I DL'd the trial to test it and that does indeed seem to work for now.

Wonderful, thanks for confirming! :)
