Play radio with Fedora

Some radio website allow you to play the live radio station with an embedded player as for BBC 2. However, this may be embarrassing for some people how probaly like listen to radio with application minimized in tray zone.

If the link is not proposed, you can follow the following procedure to play your favorite radio:
1. install videodownloadhelper plugin for firefox.
2. open the radio in the embedded player
3. the videodownloadhelper will capture the stream. You can download the file and obtain the source download link (tools-> downloads-> copy download link)
4. Play your radio in your favorite audio player (amarok and realplayer for my case)

Exemple: play BBC 2 radio channel with this command:


realplay http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/realmedia/fmg2.ram
