I just noticed “EPG detection and building up a time table” on this page which seems to be the same guy as the repo you just linked.

Some of the radios have a tiny color LCD screen which seems quite impractical for viewing a schedule. I suppose it only shows what is playing now. I noticed there are some DAB USB sticks, but I don’t suppose there is any linux software that can extract the schedule and organize recordings.

Woah, that’s a bummer. I would naturally expect a DAB broadcaster to make use of the metadata bandwidth to publish their scheduling. So are you saying most of the stations just neglect to send the metadata?

It looks like the radioEPG standard is 10 years old. Which could be an indicator that it’s a dying technology.

What does that mean, exactly? Do you mean an Alexa type of thing? I don’t have a normal unlimited broadband connection so internet radio streaming is not an option for me.

Many DAB radios have a bluetooth input option, which I would have to insist on so I could also play to the speaker from my phone.

Please sell these cheaply to consumers. I would really love to have one that photographs the plates extremely high pitch 50cc scooters on my street. I would pay $€£ 1000 for the ability to launch rotten eggs when someone uses the horn at 2am.
