Is this "Shift +E" command part of GoldWave or part of an NVDA addon or
JAWS script? I didn't know it exists. I use NVDA.

Hello Darren
I don't know whether this is what you're looking for,
But, Regarding obtaining a file length reading,
I tend to use
Shift +E,
This brings up a dialogue box.
From here, just tab till you hear, finish
And it will read out the file duration.
You can also use this same dialogue option to jump to specific points in
your file.
To do this, use the "Time Start" option (the first dialogue box in the menu)
to entre the time from where you would like to start listening and tab to
"OK.".
Hope this helps.
Cordially
Philip

Subject: [all-audio] Goldwave and Issues with Start Marker, I think!
Hi List.
Out of nowhere, my version of Goldwave has started acting erratically so far
as the start marker is concerned. I'm hoping someone on this list will have
a fix, because after a week and more of trying to track this problem down,
I'm left defeated!
When I finish a recording, my first action is to always hit control a to get
the total length of that file. Control a as all GW users will know, is the
keystroke to move the start marker to the beginning of the file, and the end
marker to the finish.
And here's my problem. Control A no longer seems to do this. I can finish a
recording and no matter the length, the time is always reported as 0.00, I
have to move the start marker to the end of the file and then control A will
give me the correct reading.
Other things have coincided with this behaviour, dropping a marker is no
longer resulting in the time stamp being announce, I just hear start or
finish.
This is really effecting my ability to edit, especially as many of the
keystrokes are deeply imbedded in muscle memory. The constant having to slow
down and make these awkward adjustments to get accurate file lengths etc is
proving to be really frustrating!
Does this sound like an issue anyone can offer up a solution for? I've run
up against a brick wall and really don't know what to try next. I can only
think that I've made some kind of alteration to GW, but for the life of me I
can't figure out what I may have done.
Any advice will be very gratefully received.
Darran
