Free esperanto radio software for linux

iRATE radio provides users with a powerful new way to find and download free, legal music online.

Users rate tracks based on their tastes. The iRATE server then selects other tracks to send to the user from a database of over 50,000 freely downloadable songs by correlating the users ratings with other users, and finding people with similar tastes.

Unlike streaming audio, iRATE saves the tracks to the users hard drive. This means that playback is smoother, without the typical problems associated with streaming media, such as high bandwidth usage.

GNU Radio is a collection of software that when combined with minimal hardware, allows the construction of radios where the actual waveforms transmitted and received are defined by software. What this means is that it turns the digital modulation schemes used in todays high performance wireless devices into software problems.
What is a Software Defined Radio?
Joe Mitola says, "A software radio is a radio whose channel modulation waveforms are defined in software. That is, waveforms are generated as sampled digital signals, converted from digital to analog via a wideband DAC and then possibly upconverted from IF to RF. The receiver, similarly, employs a wideband Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) that captures all of the channels of the software radio node. The receiver then extracts, downconverts and demodulates the channel waveform using software on a general purpose processor."
For our purposes, on the receive side, the idea is to get a wide band ADC as close to the antenna as is convenient, get the samples into something we can program, and then grind on them in software.
Enhancements:
- GNU Radio 2.6 includes sending and receiving data at up to 1Mbit/sec using GMSK. - Theres also support for the new USRP Flex 400 transceiver daughterboards.
- Handling of all daughterboards has been unified, so most apps will work without modification on any of them. For those of you interested in wireless networking, see especially gnuradio-examples/python/gmsk2. Weve got a framework in place to allow you to build and experiment with your own MACs. 2.6 includes the "null MAC". A carrier sense MAC is the next logical step.

rico_RADIO is a little app for X under linux to listen to the radio.
This is how to install:
type (make sure that you are root) "make install" to compile and copy rico_RADIO to "/usr/bin"
Enhancements:
- volume-control
- mute-button
- many cosmetic changes

eSpeak is a software speech synthesizer for English, and potentially other languages.
eSpeak produces good quality English speech. It uses a different synthesis method from other open source TTS engines, and sounds quite different. Its perhaps not as natural or "smooth", but I find the articulation clearer and easier to listen to for long periods.
eSpeak project can run as a command line program to speak text from a file or from stdin. It works well as a "Talker" with the KDE text to speech system (KTTS), as an alternative to Festival for example. As such, it can speak text which has been selected into the clipboard, or directly from the Konquerer browser or the Kate editor.
- Includes different Voices, whose characteristics can be altered.
- Can produce speech output as a WAV file.
- Can translate text to phoneme codes, so it could be adapted as a front end for another speech synthesis engine.
- Potential for other languages. Rudimentary (and probably humourous) attempts at German and Esperanto are included.
- Compact size. The program and its data total about 350 kbytes.
- Written in C++.
I regularly use it to listen to blogs and news sites. I prefer the sound through a domestic stereo system rather than my small computer speakers.
INSTALLATION:
- Place the "speak" executable file in the command path, eg in /usr/local/bin
- Place the "speak-data" directory in /usr/share as /usr/share/speak-data.
Alternatively if it is placed in the users home directory (i.e. /home/ /speak-data) then that will be used instead.
- Dependencies.
speak uses the PortAudio sound library, so you will need to have the libportaudio0 library package installed. It may be already, since its used by other software, such as OpenOffice.org and the Audacity sound editor.
COMMAND OPTIONS:
Examples
To use at the command line, type:
speak -f < text file >
Or just type
speak
followed by text on subsequent lines. Each line is spoken when RETURN is pressed. Use speak -p to see the corresponding phonemes codes.
echo "This is a test" | speak
Speaking from a single line command.
Enhancements:
- Roman number translation added for some languages.
- Improvements to languages, including en-r, Hungarian, Romanian.
- Various bug fixes.

P2P-Radio provides a peer-to-peer audio and video broadcasting system.
P2P-Radio is a peer-to-peer audio (MP3) and video (NSV) broadcasting system that features freeloader detection, stream signing, SHOUTcast support, an easy-to-use GUI, and a separate monitor application which displays the current structure of the P2P network.
P2P-Radio is programmed in Java and runs on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and many other systems.
Main features:
- Easy to use (graphical user interface)
- You can play the music/video with your media player (i.e. Winamp)
- A Shoutcast/Icecast Internet radio/TV station is used as audio/video source
- Freeloaders (peers that only listen but dont want to send the stream to other listeners) will be detected
- The data stream is signed, you can be sure that it arrives unchanged
- Very efficient communication (low overhead)
- The network structure can be viewed with a monitor
Enhancements:
- Signing of streams has been turned off by default in order to save CPU time (enable it with the parameter "-sign")
- P2P-Radio will only cooperate with a monitor if it was started with the parameter "-enablemonitor"
- Two parameters control whether the media player will be started:
- startmediaplayer: Start the media player in broadcasting mode
- dontstartmediaplayer: Dont start the media player in listening mode

dbox2Tradio allows you to listen to radio and watch tv channels using external helper applications (xmms/xine). The shell-style script remotely accesses the dbox2 and performs any action via the (Neutrino) web-interface.

dbox2Tradio supports bouquets and is highly user-configurable. That is, before running, you need to adjust language and helper applications. Nevermind, its an easy task: Use the source! You need a dbox2 running Linux.

wmradio is small FM radio application. wmradio support skins and 6 preset stations.

Installation:

1. Edit Makefile and set PREFIX
2. make
3. make install

Configuration:

configuration is stored in file ~/.wmradio

Preseting:
