I'm looking for a simple tool where I can point it at an http audio

easy but I've been search high and low for such a utility and nothing
simple exists. Unfortunately I'm not much of a developer, but this
doesn't seem like it would be that difficult. Maybe it's harder than
I think, hence no tool that I can find.
https://github.com/x42/silan may do the job. It prints ranges or silence
in a file or stream (incl. mp3,aac,wma,ogg,m4a,.. decoding and http,
rtmp stream support thanks to libav/ffmpeg). It is used by airtime
(sourcefabric's radio) to highlight silent ranges.
silan -t 0.1 -s -60d "http://mp2.somafm.com:9016" \
| grep -quiet "Sound Off" \
&& echo " do something"
