ARAS (A Radio Automation System)[2] is an open source radio automation system. It is composed of a daemon player, a player and a recorder. It is configured by means of a configuration file, a schedule file and a block description file. A log file records the data about the scheduler operation.
ARAS uses the multimedia library GStreamer as a base for both playback and recording radio shows. Because of this, it is able to play a variety of multimedia formats, as well as receiving content from both local files and internet streams.
