Hey Aug!
Just for the record, streaming CBC radio got worse recently. Before that mpg123 worked fine for mp3 streams but now that aac is the default all that was good has died. Also, while I am at it, GEM sucks big time.
Check out the "White Men & Chicken or Egg" episode ... if you can. Offhand I seem to recall the chicken or egg debate being extremely funny.
Life is good,
Maurice

Hold your teachers dear in mind, who eagerly urge you to good.
I was using the CBC Listen app. Not sure if their CBC Gem is
different.
Grabbed an offline copy with yt-dlp. The result is an mp3 file.
Will check it out later tonight.
GEM is for the TV end of things, both for live streaming
and archived shows. I currently have it working with
firefox although they recommend Chrome. The radio signal
is a different service and it used to be far more
accessable (compatible) for a wide variety of apps, many
which work great from the linux console. They seem to be
going out of their way to totally fsck things up. :-/
TV I can live without. At the moment I use GEM for the
national news but it can also be had at YouTube who do a
way better job of streaming live or otherwise.

Sounds interesting. The archive directory is what I'd
like access to.

Never used GEM. I don't have the bandwidth for streaming
Gonna try yt-dlp on all the episodes I can get. Ask me how that
went later.
..If I am not mistaken "The Debaters" is on Saturday
morning at 11:00am PST.
Also the same *should* work with VLC which from my
understanding would be a better choice for Windows users.

Consider this an advance ask you later request.
I didn't realize it was on Fri *and* Sat.
VLC is indeed the most versatile player for this sort of thing.
Even just picking the ones that have Sean Cullen would be pretty
good entertainment.
seems that mplayer plays it just fine.
i don't know how long it will play or how long those urls are
valid.
also i duno why you listen to this.. they're playing propaganda
for the WEF.
I looked at Your "me" link just now.
Lots of knowledge under that hat.
I couldn't send a message to You when I tapped on the Button, so thought to write here to let You know I visited the page.
(probably the Log told on me before I could finish this post)

I saw Ed's post here and the word "lighthouses" and had to ask, are you also a fan of them?
Besides the USB device I also saw another device with a
CAT5 jack on it. That has me thinking about using that
device in the place where the old DSL modem was plugged in
the Linksys Router. Using that CAT5 device I could use
either the XP or Vista PC as I used to do.
I WANT to get back to doing 'computing' as I used to do.
