Select one or more streams in the table. Click the button to start recording. Once you start recording, the button's icon should change to "Stop". Pressing 'stop' will tell RadioLover to stop the recording.

Don't want to record the current track? Click this button to skip recording the current song, and wait for the next song before recording again. Radio streams based on M3U playlist format (such as the now defunct MP3.com), allow you to skip straight to the next song, without having to wait for the current song to finish. That's because an M3U playlist is just a list of MP3 song files, whereas with real streaming audio broadcasts, you can't jump ahead.

Select a radio stream and click "Listen". If you are not currently recording from the stream, RadioLover will preview the radio stream with iTunes. It's the same as if you opened the stream directly in iTunes. If you are actually recording the radio stream, clicking "Listen" will allow you to listen to what you are recording, but RadioLover will relay the radio stream to iTunes on your computer.

When a radio stream is being recorded, you can select the "Show Music" button to tell Finder to display where your recordings are. You will see a folder open, named after the radio stream, in your download path (by default, this is your "Music" folder). Note that if you don't see any files, or some are missing, it could be due to: files being ignored because they are too small (a preference option) files are in the incomplete folder files have been added to an iTunes playlist, and the option to delete files after adding to iTunes playlists has been enabled
