The cost for this application is $19.99 per the ScannerLive website. Don’t be cheap. Plunk down your shekels and enjoy! (Keep in mind that there are very few developers of applications of interest to us in the scanner monitoring hobby. Developers must be supported if you wish for them to provide these great apps.)
As mentioned before, ScannerLive is a Windows application that allows you to listen to multiple audio feeds simultaneously, with the ability to mute, prioritize, and adjust the “squelch” of individual feeds.
ScannerLive allows you to listen to any IceCast/ShoutCast feed. It also allows you to add feeds from RadioReference just by selecting the feeds from pull-down menus.
You have 10 banks of up to 10 feeds each. You can switch back and forth between banks.
I don’t have time to provide a review. If somebody else does first, I’ll link to it. It is a great application though. It is so convenient to have all of the feeds you want to listen to available within one application, instead of having to open up a half dozen or more browser windows.
This is a quick review of the beta releast of ScannerLive. ScannerLive is a Windows application that allows you to listen to multiple scanner streams simultaneously. You can listen to scanner audio streams from RadioReference as well as from other sites as long as those sites offer compatible streams.
This application has many features, but since it is beta and since I only use the application for one reason, I won’t go over all the features. What I will say is that if the streams that you want to listen to are provided by RadioReference, you can load up a bank of 10 different streams in no time at all and have a lot of fun listening.
The features I think are best thus far are:
ability to listen to 10 feeds at once
ability to mute individual feeds
ability to set a volume level for individual feeds
ability to prioritize individual feeds
ability to have multiple banks (of up to 10 streams)
ability to import RR-provided streams quickly and easily
Rob Dale ( rdale from RadioReference ) has done a superb job on this application so far. When it is released to the public I think it is going to go over big. It is extremely useful. I am sure that it will become even more refined with time and that we will see even more features.
I can’t give you a link to it yet, because as far as I know there isn’t a website set up with all of the details yet. I will, however, provide a screenshot below.
