I just updated to the latest version to make sure this works.  

Tab to the Search Menu button and press space.  Arrow down to the Genres
choice and press Enter.  this lands you in a vertical list of letters and
numbers which are the first letters of genre names. Arrow up or press o for
oldies, then press enter on it to activate it.  shift+tab to the resulting
list.  I get 572 or so stations from all over the globe.

RE: Question about LS-14 digital recorder

[Dean Martineau]

One can often find Book Port Plus or Plextalk Pocket units used in good 
condition.  this may make their price more equal to the one you're 
contemplating; I don't know how much that one costs.  The advantage of these 
blindness-specific devices is that you can easily set bookmarks while 
recording, so if an item you know you're going to want to put in the minutes 
occurs you can silently hit the bookmark key during recording and easily get 
back to it later.  You can also of course change the playback speed.

Hi, Andy. I appreciate the help. What I actually want to do is record a meeting 
then go through it and take minutes. It's not feasible to do this by 
manipulating a file on a computer. I have used other Olympus digital recorders 
that  do let you vary the speed of the recording using the recording.

Hi John.

Like another member suggested yesterday, most of these recorders record a file 
for you and that's all.

What you do with that file is up to you.

You may wish to make it quieter, slower, faster , louder or add some thing like 
a small echo or you may simply wish to maximise all the tracks to be the same 
volume, etc.


You achieve these things by using something like Goldwave.

I do this kind of stuff all the time and as recently as Friday night of last 
week I recorded a 45 singer choir onto such a recorder and came home with my 
digital recording.


But then the technical work really started

I had to load it into Goldwave and make some of the improvements that I listed 
above.

I ended up with a high quality recording that you simply cannot get on a stand 
alone hand-held digital recorder.
Once on the computer I was also able to burn my work onto a CD for the group, 
which is to be used in a television advertisement.

I could not do this without some experience of digital editing on a computer.

So if this is what you want to do, then that is the way to do it.

Hope this helps.

Andy.

This opens a multi-page dialog with five tabs.  The middle one is the Fading

Hi everyone.  Thanks for all of the suggestions - two or three of them are very 
appealing (depending on my cashflow).

I've downloaded both Tapin Radio and Replay Radio but I'm not sure exactly how 
to use them (although a lot of it is probably common sense).  Are any Jaws 
scripts required and, as a separate question, are there any tutorials/guides 
available in text or audio?

The main thing I'm trying to do at the moment (preferably with Tapin) is to 
record the internet station that I broadcast on so, because it's not in the 
station directories of these types of programs, I'm trying to add the stream 
URL and instruct the software to record.  Any advice on doing this - if 
tutorials with such info aren't available - will be gratefully received.

Many thanks for your time and help.

RE: Recording Internet Radio Streams

There are many options to record audio streams.  The only free one I know is 
Tapin Radio. You can search for it and install it.  Of course, they have a paid 
version $20 US) which lets you schedule recordings and gives you access to a 
wider database of stations.  

Perhaps the free version of total Recorder (totalrecorder.com) allows for

The most powerful one I know is Replay Radio from applian technoloties.  It 
carries an annual subscription cost, but lets you schedule recordings, and also

RE: downloading .wav files

I tend to use insert+space, s to turn off speech before starting a

disable them temporarily, turn off auto-forms mode, or switch to NVDA and
deal with the sounds there.  Turning off JAWs speech has thus far sufficed.

I have always and am  still a huge fan of voice dream reader on my iphone
but lately the programme is acting up.  In the past, I could stop the
program, do something else on the phone and   then return to boice dream.
The program would return me to the exact place where I left off.  Lately,
when reading an audio book consisting of multiple mp3 files, it will return
me to the beginning of the file I was busy with and not to the exact place
in the fiole where I stopped.  I know it can be remedied by inserting a
bookmark where you sstoppped each time.  The point though is that in the
past it was not necessary.

 

Has anyone found this lately with voicedream?

solving windows 10 basic recording problems

[Dean Martineau]

I have a Lenovo tablet on which I used to be able to record using its
built-in microphone, and, to some degree, a mediocre earbud mike plugged
into the headphone jack.  I had to wipe the machine, (or maybe I didn't have
to, but I did,) then upgraded it to windows 10 anniversary.  Now I can't
make this work.

 

The default recording device is the Connexant Smartaudio HD.  When I go into
its properties, the microphone is invariably muted and volume is at 0.  I
change these settings and the changes do not remain in effect.

 

I had learned that it is unwise to have Skype control your microphone
setting, but when I turn that Skype option on, I am able to use Skype.  I am
trying to record using the free virtual recorder program, and it works for

it doesn't work as well under windows 10 as it used to for me, likely

RE: accessible software media player that can bookmark

[Dean Martineau]

I have to say I didn't find this post all that helpful.  Winamp works fine
for me and for some others using Windows 10.  Given that situation, can you
elaborate on why we should change to VLC?  Assuming winamp works, what does
it do better?  Also, can you speed up playback with it easily?

recording mixer program; scheduling and recording audio in Win10 Anniversary edition

[Dean Martineau]

Hello.  After a computer crash, I have lost a little information and a lot
of functionality.  

 

I cannot remember the name and URL for the little free program that lets you
choose your sound source to record on a pc.

 

I restored this computer to default and then upgraded to windows 10
Anniversary Edition.  Since then, even running as an administrator, I cannot
schedule or record with Replay Radio, or schedule with Tapin Radio Pro.  I
have yet to figure this out.  If anybody can suggest why the same computer
which used to run windows 10 has now lost these abilities in windows 10
anniversary Edition, I would love to understand it; my Google search didn't
help.

RE: Goldwave question

[Dean Martineau]

Since we're talking about versions, I use 5.70 on a Win 7 64-bit system.
Presumably, when I move to windows 10, I will need to upgrade to version 6,

In answer to what version of GW John has, he replied:

5.07. 

John, did you **really** mean

5.07. 

or

5.70?

5.70 is the last version which will work for WindowsXP systems, 5.07 is a
very early version of GW V5, it works with windowsXP and windowsME but not
with any other windows system.

also 5.07 does not have all the access facilities introduced from 5.25
onwards.

If you are **really** using 5.07, this is probably why auto-scroll-lock
behaves differently.

Further answer to a question, the new GW scripts **only** work with systems
**after** WindowsXP they are created for GW V6.anything, only a 64-bit
program is now available hence the scripts are set up accordingly.

Greetings,

First of all, have you enabled the scrub feature for this is not enabled by
default?

To set this, press f11 you are now in the play properties sheet.

Tab past the settings for winding back and forward, you are then in an edit
box which, by default, has the value 0.000, I changed this to 0.150 which
means whenever I move an arrow or marker, I play fifteen hundreths of a
second's worth of sound.  This makes editting much much much faster but
there is a definite nack to using in this way. 

Assuming you have set your zoom rate to something sensible, such as one
second's worth of sound on the screen (shift with the number 2 on the qwerty
keyboard achieves this) movement of arrow / markers will give you an easy
way to place the left or right markers exactly where you need them.

Now, to find where you want the edit.

If you know roughly where it begins, say at 5:25 into the file, using the
shift e enter the time in the start marker position press enter.

Now play the file which if you have your play set will start from the start
marker, when you reach the actual place, press left bracket the marker is
then set.

If you need to move it slightly, you can do so using shift and left-right
arrow, you will hear sound as you move the arrow i.e marker.  When happy,
attend in much the same way for the end marker, you can play, or jump
through the file until you reach the place where the edit is to end, press
right bracket, i.e the second key to the right of the letter p, and then
fine tune by using the control-shift and left-right arrow.

I have my three play cuttons set as follows:

Play1 (f2) set to play all

Play 2 (f3) set to play selection

Play 3 (f4) set to play view

therefore, to play what is between the markers, play2 to play what is on the
screen play 3,  to play file from start play 1.

If happy, press delete, piece gone, play 2 should give silence.

Remember control z can undo either to your system maximum, or until you
reach last saved file, or until you reach the amount set.  I have mine set
to fifteen I suspect the maximum varies but on my system it is twenty.

Remember, for each undo, you are left with markers set as at execution of
the function you are reversing.

Hope these are of help, currently, I am still using V5.70 on a Windows7
desktop upstairs and a WindowsXp Home laptop downstairs but I have been
using GoldWave for the last eight years, ever since V5.12.

If I recall, you use the mark start and mark end keystrokes to set the

is powered by a single AA batterey, I have a metal hydride in 
mine and one
charge has lasted well over a year.  When the charge goes, it
*8sudd**suddenly** goes, takes about half a minute or less, fades 
and then
gone unlike most dry cells which in my experience of some forty 
years, give
good power for a fair time then over a period of (say) two or 
three hours,
fade giving worse and worse sound.

Metal hydride batteries need a special charger, cannot charge 
with one used
for the old-fashioned nycads, they do not have a memory as did 
nycad
batteries and they can last about a thousand charging cycles but 
when they
fail, they fail completely.

total recorder and sleep mode

When I used to use Total Recorder a lot when I had XP, I routinely set it to

Subject: Users of Total Recorder, be warned!

Hi Everyone!

I'm always discovering new features and functions in the Total  
Recorder application and I do discover some bugs from time-to-time but  
the support team at High Criteria seem pretty helpful.  One you need  
to be careful of is the problem in Total Recorder's error trapping  
when typing in a filename, for some reason Total Recorder won't tell  
you if the / character is in a filename.  Now obviously, if you're  
typing in a filename manually then you're not likely to use the /  
character but if you're pasting say from a schedule on the web to the  
filename box into the scheduler of Total Recorder? Well, that can be a  
different matter as I've just found out.

so what's the consequence of all this? you get an extra folder created  
off your directory where Total Recorder stores your files along with a  
possible meaningless filename which you have to try and sort out, in  
other words the wasting of a few minutes which you could quite easily  
devote to more productive pursuits.

Next thing, be very careful! how you set your power management  
settings of your Windows PC, if the PC goes to Standby mode or the  
hard drive goes to sleep then I'm afraid that Total Recorder will go  
to sleep to, this problem is probably beyond the folks at High  
Criteria as its more a Windows thing I'm supposing.  Audio Hijack Pro  
- the nearest thing to Total Recorder on the Mac - can tap into the  
operating system and wake or even start your computer just before the  
scheduled recording is to take place and I'm guessing of course that  
such nice and nifty things just aren't possible with Windows due to  
the design of the PC itself.

RE: Olympus DS50

[dean martineau]

Hi.  Neil Ewers did a thorough description of the Olympus DS-50 on
BlindCoolTech, so it will be much more authoritative than this:  The
leftmost of those three buttons navigates through the folders.  The other
two, I think, take you to specific folders, I believe music and perhaps
Audible but since I never used them when I had my DS-50, I am only certain
about the lefthand button.

Hello,

Regarding my Olympus DS50,  Although I really
like the DS50 for voice recordings, I seldom use it and have
forgotten the specific uses of the three buttons which
appear as a bar below the screen, the center of which is
elevated.  I do recall that one sets a bookmark, and the one
to the left sets a sort of recall location which causes the
DS50 to repeat a designated portion of a file.  But, I don't
recall the specifics.  Can you please refresh my memory?

Thanks much.

Don, I agree, that the manual should deal more thoroughly
with importing
books from Studio Recorder especially in that APH develops
them both.

I may not do a podcast, but I may have time at some point,
to write a list
of things one needs to do in order to do this.  It really
isn't all that
difficult once you figure it out, but you do not get much
help from the

I'll see if I

Hello Neal,

I am writing in the hope that you will consider doing a
quick and dirty
podcast concerning the proper procedure to follow to make a
daisy book from
existing mp3 or wav files, especially if recorded using
Studio Recorder.

For some reason, I am having difficulty grasping the
concepts in the BWP
docs, primarily because the docs try to make a one size fits
all approach.
I think that recording from existing audio files should not
be combined with
the instructions pertaining to microphone recording.
  I would appreciate your thoughts on this subject.

Thanks for all of your contributions in the past.

Cordially,

RE: is there any player which can help to jump any specific place in a long audio or will start from the last point after shutting down and and when restarting again?

[dean martineau]

Hello.  A very good player for this is Winamp, especially if you use any
fairly recent version of JAWS or Window-Eyes version 7 or later.  For
instance, with these screen readers running and using Winamp, before you
shut down the computer, set a time marker.  Now you can return to that same
position very easily.  Even if you don't do that, you can easily jump to any
time position in the file.  You can also easily turn the book into a DAISY
book with a free tool, then use a DAISY reader on the computer; I can
research the links for you to do that if you want.

[dean martineau]

Here is the link for the DAISY Book Generator, a free program which lets you
take a folder of one or more mp3 files and create a daisy book:

http://jaapvanlelieveld.xs4all.nl/daisy.htm

AMIS is a free DAISY book reader:

http://www.daisy.org/projects/amis/

Also, if you can access JAWS version 11, you have access to FS Reader which
is free for users of that screen reader.

The keystrokes for setting Winamp place markers is I believe dependent on
your screen reader.  If using JAWS, read the help that comes with the
scripts.  I don't do this often, but I believe the keystroke to set a marker
is alt+ctrl+m.

[dean martineau]

The manual for the Daisy Book Generator explains the process.  Basically,
you put all the mp3 files you want to constitute the Daisy book onto a
folder.  Highlight that folder in Windows Explorer and use the context menu
which, once you install Daisy Book Generator, will include the option to
create a Daisy book, as well as other options offered by the program.

RE: Digital recorders again.

[dean martineau]

What I know is that the PlexTalk Pocket is totally accessible, nicely
packaged, has both manual and automatic level control, and does a very nice
job of recording from the line injack.  I doubt any other digital recorder
provides as much feedback, as this one is made for the blind.  Of course, it
may (or may not, I don't know) cost more than others of similar quality, but
there's no guesswork involved.  It's nice to be able to monitor through the
speaker when making a line-in recording.

Hi all,

Just wondering, which one of the flash memory based recorders recently
discussed here, would be most suitable for making high quality recordings
from an external source via line-in?  e.g. a satellite receiver.

I don't intend recording via microphone, so that particular aspect of
performance is of limited interest.

Any views much appreciated.

Actually, I found that going to a team's site does reveal the radio station
on which they are carried, but you really have to dig for it. When you get
on the site, search for the word radio. But it isn't always that easy. For
instance, when you go on the Montreal Canadiens site, you have to get past
all the French/English stuff before you even get to the page where you can
look for the word radio. When you find it, the call letters for the station
will be somewhere around there.

Another option is to use Google. Look for something like, senators radio 
if you want to hear the Ottawa Senators.

 From:Dane trethowan dane.tretho...@me.com
 To:  VIP L vi...@softspeak.com.au

Hi!

Here's a summary of the accessibility features and functions found on  
the new Ipod Touch as taken from the Apple Web Site.


Vision
iPod touch includes a screen reader and other innovative accessibility  
features that make it easier to use for those with impaired vision.
VoiceOver

The same VoiceOver screen reader made popular on the Mac and the  
iPhone is now a standard feature on iPod touch (3rd generation). It's  
the world's first gesture-based screen reader, enabling you to enjoy  
the fun and simplicity of iPod touch even if you can't see the screen.
What makes VoiceOver on iPod touch remarkable is that you control it  
using simple gestures that let you physically interact with items on  
the screen. It's easy to learn and fun to use. Instead of memorizing  
hundreds of keyboard commands or endlessly pressing tiny arrow keys to  
find what you're looking for, with VoiceOver you simply touch the  
screen to hear a description of the item under your finger, then  
gesture with a double-tap, drag, or flick.
VoiceOver delivers an experience unlike any screen reader you've used  
before. Traditional screen readers describe individual elements on the  
screen, but struggle to communicate where each element is located or  
provide information about adjoining objects. This contextual  
information is very important but typically filtered out by other  
screen readers. For example, off-screen models used by traditional  
screen readers to represent applications and web pages intentionally  
strip away contextual information and describe web pages as a list or  
menu of items. But with VoiceOver on iPod touch, you'll experience  
something entirely new.
Because VoiceOver works with the touchscreen, you interact directly  
with objects on the screen and can understand their location and  
context. So, when you touch the upper-left corner of the screen,  
you'll hear what's in the upper-left corner of a web page, and as you  
drag your finger around the screen, you'll learn what's nearby,  
providing an amazing new sense of context and relationships between  
the items you hear. For many, VoiceOver on iPod touch will provide,  
perhaps for the first time, a true sense of not only how things appear  
on the screen, but also descriptions of what they are. You'll hear  
descriptions of every item, including status information such as  
battery level, Wi-Fi signal levels, and time of day. iPod touch even  
lets you know when the display changes to landscape or portrait, and  
when the screen is locked or unlocked.
The speaking rate is adjustable so you can set it to a speed that best  
suits your listening ability. VoiceOver uses distinctive sound effects  
to alert you when an application opens, when the screen is updated,  
when a message dialog appears, and more. And when VoiceOver is  
talking, the volume of background sounds and music is automatically  
lowered, ducking under the voice, so you can clearly hear what  
VoiceOver is telling you.

It Speaks Your Language
VoiceOver includes built-in voices that speak over 21 languages  
including Bahasa Indonesian, Chinese (Cantonese), Chinese (China),  
Chinese (Taiwan), Dutch, English (U.S.), English (UK), English  
(Australian), Finnish, French (Canada), French (France), German,  
Greek, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese  
(Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish  
(Mexico), Spanish (Spain), Swedish, Thai, and Turkish.
Getting Started
VoiceOver is built into iPod touch (3rd generation). There's nothing  
extra to purchase or install. All you need is iPod touch, iTunes 9 or  
later, and a Mac or PC. You can activate your iPod touch and enable  
VoiceOver without sighted assistance using iTunes with a compatible  
screen reader like VoiceOver (included in Mac OS X) or GW-Micro Window- 
Eyes for Windows XP and Windows Vista (sold separately). When you  
activate iPod touch using iTunes, you can 

RE: goldwave keystrokes

As I recall, you were doing it correctly, so I don't have an explanation for
why it didn't work.  Left bracket marks the beginning, right bracket marks
the end. If you use JAWS, there are very good scripts for the program, and
as I recall, the Window-Eyes set files do most of the same thing.  There is
an accessibility section of the manual.  You can also modify the keystrokes,
which I have done to make them more user-friendly.  Make sure AutoScrollLock
on the view menu is checked.

RE: Splitting a File into Tracks with MP3 Direct Cut

You can also use the Pause Detection feature on the Special menu to detect

I haven't done much of this but that's the theory and it probably works
pretty well if you get your pause length right.

RE: Bulk Rename Utility

[dean martineau]

I would personally use FileDir, Jamal Mazrui's free file manager, which has
several renaming methods.  I would probably rename using regular expression,
which should allow you to replace any underscore character with a space in
all marked files.

These are files made with an earlier audio extraction program and the

This is slightly easier under Vista, but easy also under xp.  To my

the column header you want to sort by.  Click twice for reverse order.  In
vista, it is easily done with the keyboard.

  Hi Listers,
OK, so perhaps this is a silly question, but is there a way to sort
files by last modified? Reason being, I have a rather large download
directory of music. As I download new files, they are added to the
directory in alphabetical order. But when it comes time to load music
onto my Victor stream, I sometimes can't find where all the files are.
If I could sort my directory by last modified (or in this case last
added) it would make this process easier. I know this was possible to do
with the old AudioGalaxy Satellite, but I haven't been able to find a
way to do this through windows.
Thanks.

Greetings!  I have been out of the loop since my hard-drive crashed a month
ago.  But I am slowly on the mend.  One thing in Goldwave is really
perplexing me.  I must have hit a set of keys that changed a setting, but I
don't know how to get back to my original settings.  When editing a file in
GW, I move the start markers to where I think the sound trimming should be
done.  I hit the home key to move the cursor to the start marker.  I then
hit play to start my editing.  But lately it seems as if the placement of
start and finish markers is just ignored.  I will hit play and while I
expect the sound to commence with the new start marker, it resumes where the
cursor was left originally.  This has never happened before and I wonder
what I have done to get into this mess.  Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers,
Peter

RE: Digitizing Tape without Hearing Sound

[dean martineau]

I suspect you are using Windows xp or earlier.  Go into the properties of
your sound card and choose play.  In that dialog, you may find options to
check or uncheck what channels play.  Make sure line in is unchecked.  Also,
in the recording properties, make sure line in is checked, not anything
called What you Hear or Mixer.  

I often digitize tapes using Goldwave, in both Xp and Vista, and never hear
the tape playing, so the problem can be solved.

RE: mp3 direct cut

I know all about Goldwave, and it does have many advantages.  Actually, when
working with an mp3 file, Mp3 Direct Cut has it beat for splitting and some
simple editing given the fact that it works directly on the mp3 file without
decompressing and re-compressing.  Both programs have their uses.

 you are in the main window of the program.
 There is a music creator window but that window is not speech friendly so
 you want to be in the untitled window. Lets now type control-p which will
 put the program in practice mode. Press notes on the bottom of the 
 keyboard
 and see if you hear sound. Press escape to cancel this window. If no sound
 is heard lets press The letter p and that will bring up a patch list where
 you select the instruments you'd like. This should at least get you

RE: Is this possible with Goldwave?

[dean martineau]

I would use the command line to achieve what you want. For simplicity,
perhaps put the files into the root folder of drive c:, or some other easy p
lace you can find. The easiest scenario would be if you wanted all the files
from the book to end up in one file.  So if the book is called my multifile
book, with each chapter being a file with a name based on that name, Go to
the run dialog and type cmd. You then have to navigate to the folder where
the files are.  In my example, type cd \ to get to the root of drive c:.
Now type this, paying attention to punctuation:

Copy /b my multifile*.* thebook/mp3

Press enter.  To close the command line, type the word exit and hit enter.
You should now have a file called thebook.mp3 in the root folder of your c:
drive.

Hi listers,

I just downloaded a couple of audio books, and unfortunately, the 
person who converted these books didn't convert the files into a 
single file for each cd, but left all the tracks converted as 
individual tracks. All I want to do is to take these files, and place 
them in their proper order, and making one mp3 file for each cd.

As of a few minutes ago, I took a look at the batch processing 
options in Goldwave, but can find no one step way to select all these 
files, and consolidate all these mp3 files into one file. Is there a 
way to do this, or must I copy each file, one after the other, adding 
them to the last mp3 file created in a manual fashion. Surely there 
has to be an easier way to do this. If some one can instruct me in 
the best way to go about what it is I am trying to do, I would really 
appreciate the help.

The reason I would like to accomplish this particular task, is to 
make it easier to listen to these files on my Victor Stream, rather 
than the Victor classic, because fast forwarding, and rewind are so 
much better on the stream.

Hello there,

 

I have a question, and I'm going to try and explain my problem as best as I
can.

 

I'm using a Del laptop with Windows Vista and Jaws 9.  I also have an old
Toshiba laptop with Windows XP and JAWS 9.  That one is not working very
well, and I try to use it as little as possible.

 

My de3l computer is doing something very strange.  It has Windows Media
Player and Real Player, but WM player is the default.  I'm able to go to
different websites and listen to things using it.  

There are several radio stations I enjoy that I can listen to using Windows
Media Player with no problem.

However, when I get to one specific station

www.kboo.fm

something different happens.

When I try to click on the mp3 high link, my computer tells me that Internet
Explorer cannot load the web page.  Well, that's very strange because every
other computer I have (including my office computer) has no problems with
it.  Even my very sluggish computer can load that particular web page and
open it with Windows Media Player.

This station is becoming more important to me and I'll be needing to listen
to it more and more, but it would be preferable to use my primary computer
for this.

 

Now, you might ask yourselves whether or not IE is loading other web pages.
Yes it is.  No problems there.

Also, you may ask if I can pick up other websites with similar stations and
listen to them.  Indeed I can.

There's also a Listen Live section and there is an option for high
bandwidth for stereo, and that doesn't seem to work either.  It's as if IE
doesn't want to read that for some reason.

 

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

 

Jim

Player and Real Player, but WM player is the default.  I'm able to go to
different websites and listen to things using it.  

There are several radio stations I enjoy that I can listen to using Windows
Media Player with no problem.

However, when I get to one specific station

www.kboo.fm

something different happens.

When I try to click on the mp3 high link, my computer tells me that Internet
Explorer cannot load the web page.  Well, that's very strange because every
other computer I have (including my office computer) has no problems with
it.  Even my very sluggish computer can load that particular web page and
open it with Windows Media Player.

This station is becoming more important to me and I'll be needing to listen
to it more and more, but it would be preferable to use my primary computer
for this.

 

Now, you might ask yourselves whether or not IE is loading other web pages.
Yes it is.  No problems there.

Also, you may ask if I can pick up other websites with similar stations and
listen to them.  Indeed I can.

There's also a Listen Live section and there is an option for high
bandwidth for stereo, and that doesn't seem to work either.  It's as if IE
doesn't want to read that for some reason.

 

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

using Pandora

[dean martineau]

This question comes up periodically, but things do change, so I thought I
would ask again in case somebody knows a solution: does anybody have a way,
using any screen reader/browser combo, while using the Pandora service, to
thumbs up or thumbs down a song, skip a song, create a station, or
modify a station?  If so, please be specific about the tools you use to
accomplish this.

RE: Moving by time in Goldwave?

Not as good as Sound Forge in this respect, but you can set the Zoom level
to a particular interval, then use the arrows to advance by that level.

Sorry if the answer to this is to read the manual, but, well, cannot find
any reference in there to moving by a specific amount of time in Goldwave. 
Does anyone know if this is in fact possible?

Those familiar with Sound Forge will know the control-G command for doing
this, and I'm after a similar function in GW.

Many thanks.

RE: Goldwav, batch conversions, and shaky output

This is an integral feature of Goldwave.  From the file menu, choose Batch
processing. You first add files to the batch on the conversion tab, then, on
that same tab, choose the format and quality you want to convert to.  It
works very well.

I'm trying to use goldwav to convert files from one byt rate to a lower
byt rate to save space. I keep the hz at the same level when converting.
Say the source files are 128 byt 44100hz then the output will be 32 byt

However, since these files are just audio books I expect the degredation
of sound quality to be minimaul, however the smaller files sometimes,
but not all the time, come out shaky. Any idea what I can do to fix this

RE: I need some help please!

[dean martineau]

There is doubtless another way, but here is what I would do:

1.  Add the two stations.  From the shows menu, chose add station, 
Then enter the call letters into the dialog.  Both stations are in the Media
Guide, so it will be easy to add them.  Hit the Add Station link.  

2.  For each station, go into Properties using the application key, and copy
the Url for the station.

3.  From theShows menu, choose Add show manually.  Put in the name, which at
least in one case I believe to be Lunch With Folks.  Paste in the Url you
copied.  Make sure you're set to capture a stream.  Scheduling is tricky but
it can be done.

RE: I need some help please!

[dean martineau]

I would use your xp system.  The two leading programs for recording streams
are Replay a/v and Total Recorder.  Both are good.  I have always preferred
Total Recorder.  You can download a demo of Replay a/v to try it out, 
And there are audio tutorials for JAWS users at 

http://www.applian.com/support-blind.php

As for Total Recorder, subscribers to the $9 Sound Computing package have
access to several audio tutorials that I created.  

To modify what I wrote above, if you use Vista, you definitely want to use
Replay A/V, and it doesn't work any better with Xp than it does with Vista.
Total Recorder is easier to use with Xp.

If you do a Google search for 7zip, you will get this very good free archive

I already have Replay Converter, which does some of this, but only with

Converter will, or if the two have pretty similar capability.

RE: audio editors

[dean martineau]

If you use JAWS, there are scripts that make Goldwave quite accessible, and
much of this support also exists with Window-Eyes set files.  So depending
on what you're doing with these files, you may find the enhancements
provided by the scripts justify the purchase.  The other two programs you
mentioned are free, but don't have scripts to make them as user-friendly,
though they are both used by many.  You can try Goldwave without buying it.
You get a certain number of keystrokes per session before you have to exit
and relaunch it.

Subject: Recording from external sources 

Greetings fellow audio lovers.  I am new to the list and I have a question
for those of you who use Jaws and Goldwave.  I have been successfully
recording from external devices, mostly cassette players, into Goldwave via
an external device called an Inport made by Xitel.  Wires run from my tape
deck into the small Inport device, which contains its own sound card,
then into a USB port on my pc.   To avoid having the sound cards clash, I
would have to add a new line of text to the Jaws ini file that told Jaws
that the synthesizer port was my pc sound card.  I then had to check the
use default only box in the sounds control panel.  I would restart the pc,
start up Goldwave, start recording on a new file, hit the play button on the
external device, and get an mp3 file for my efforts!

This was cumbersome, especially having to worry about clashing sound cards.
But it worked for 2 years.  Well, I recently upgraded from Jaws 7 to Jaws 9.
Now every time I go through this procedure, I get a Jaws application error.
It knocks Jaws out so that I can't get more details as well.  The last thing
I hear is Jaws application error, a message is being sent.,
then the sound is gone!  Once in a while, I manage to save some recorded
sound in Goldwave, but it contains that bonking noise that you hear when you
have done something Windows doesn't like.  Something is definitely up.  I
have tried work arounds such as turning off Jaws once I hit the play button
on the external device, but to no avail.  Things seem to go fine right up
until I send sound in from the external device.  I have tried every
permutation I can think of; making sure the sound cards are either the one
in the pc, or the Inport one in Goldwave and the control panel.  I am
getting to the point of giving up.  I wonder if there is a better way of
doing this.
Surely there must be other folks using Jaws, Goldwave, and recording sounds
from external devices.  What do you all use?  I have tried googling key
words to see what others might use, but no luck so far.  Rick Harmon, the
Blind Geek Zone master, recommended that I contact the PC Audio group.  You
all sound very knowledgeable and I really hope that you can point me in the
right direction.  Perhaps there are ways that avoid using more than one
sound card?  Let me know what you think.

Most Sincerely,

Peter A. Smith

You will not be able to do all you want to do with one package, and you will

not all, of what you want to do you can do free with the Daisy Book

Hi.

Only got general recommendations and links to offer in your persuit of of
DAISY creation software, but hope it helps.

First off: the DAISY org site which will tell you a lot about the various
software packages and hardware options:

http://tinyurl.com/8zgfqd

Second, Brian Hartgen is the source of much knowledge here in the UK,

The last mentioned software package on this page, the Book Wizzard by A P H,
is, I think, free, and seems to be highly regarded by some.
www.hartgen.org

A final thought:  the PTR2 CD/CF card recorder is a pretty easy to use
solution enabling pretty painless conversion in one box.  There is a list,
on Freelists I think, the PtR1 users list for this equipment.  (Don't be put
off by the name;  it was started back in the days of the PTR1, but most
discussion there is/is around the PTR2 successor.

AS for sample rate and bit rate conversion, not sure if you will find much
support for that within the DAISY creation software packages, and I would in
any case personally look to Goldwave, Sound Forge, Studio recorder for this
and the audio processing optionsfacilities you might want.


HTH,

hello list,
I have recently got a portable daisy talking book player, and would like to
start making my own daisy book disks, from my own audio library.
please can anyone recommend a good fully featured daisy creating software
package? it needs to be fully accessible, using window-eyes.

the package needs to be fully featured, as I would like to make the disks
fully navigable, as I will probably put several books, radio series, or
audio described film audio tracks, on to one disk, and would like to be able
to select which book or series I want, and easily navigate my way around
that book or series, by chapter or episode, or if a particular series had
several seasons of it, I would like to be able to navigate by series,
season, or episode. I hope I have explained that ok. however, just to make
things interesting, the audio books in my library, are all formatted
differently, as there are some, that have only as many files, as there were
tapes or cds in the original, there are some, that have been taken from cd,
with each track on each cd being a file, and there are some, that have just
been formatted as a single big file for the whole book.

also, the stuff I have, has not all been encoded at the same bit rate, and I
have had problems with some mp3 disks before, that will play perfectly in
mp3 cd players, dvd players, and my computer, but when I try to play them in
my talking book machine, it says something like audio format not supported
even though they are mp3 files, and I would like the software package to be
able to sort this out if possible, as it is probably something simple, such
as re-encoding the mp3 files, in a bit rate that the talking book machine
will handle.

it would also be quite useful, if the package could have some equaliser,
volume boosting, sound enhancement, and unwanted noise removal tools. as
some of the stuff I have, either because it was taken from very old
recordings, was recorded at too lower level on one or both channels, or
encoded at too lower bit rate, doesn't sound that good, which is something,
that I would really like to improve if possible, before making daisy disks
of it.

it would also be nice, if the package could actually record directly from a
line or digital in, as I still have a lot of stuff on tape, dat, and
minidisk. and if it could also take audio from standard audio cds, which I
could use the drive in the computer to read, it would be even better.

finally, if possible, I would like the package, to be able to work with
different audio formats, as not all the stuff in my library is in mp3
format, some of it is in .ogg, some in .wma, some in standard uncompressed
.wav, and some in a form of compressed .wav format. I think it is going to
be a bit much, to expect the software to work with

 In case you're still looking for this, I use Mp3 Direct Cut, which is free
 and does a great job of splitting files into any desired length of

 Subject: Auto splitting of audio files (goldwav or another program)

 Hi all,
 Does anyone know of a good freeware program that will automatically
 split audio files into equal parts? I like the option of by time or
 number of parts.  I have goldwav, but I see no way to have goldwav  mark
 the file into equal parts and then split into individual files. I know I
 can manually mark the points in which to split, but I have several files
 I wish to split into about 100 parts and don't want to manually mark all
 of those.

 Thanks,
 Jason

RE: Audio cd burner

[dean martineau]

I don't know when I'll get to writing more specific instructions, but I'll
try to do so.  I may record them.  Basically, you open the program, hit
alt-a for audio and hit enter.  The trick is to then navigate to the folder
where your audio files are.  When you find that folder, you navigate through
it.  When you find an audio file to add to the compilation, hit alt+d.  As I
mentioned in the recording, JAWS doesn't read this listing perfectly; System
Access and window-Eyes both do.  With JAWS, use the read current line
hotkey, by default insert+up arrow, to make sure you're really on the audio
file you think you're on.

RE: total recorder and napster

The answer should be yes.  It will be easier if you run Xp than it would be
if you run Vista, but even with Vista it can be done.  Try a track and see
what results you get.  If it doesn't work, then we'll have to discuss your

 I do, such as WMV to MP3 for example, still work in the free version 
 even after the trial period. I'm not sure what conversion you're 
 looking for, but you could check out the web site and the help pages 
 to find out what file conversions are supported.

 The only free sound editor I know is Audacity from 
 http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/. I don't use it myself, so 
 I can't say any more about it, other than it's come up on blind 
 related links, so I'm assuming it's at least somewhat accessible.

RE: Asking For An Explanation Of .m3u Files

[dean martineau]

Hi, Pam. .m3u files are indeed playlists.  You can o[pen them in a text
editor to see what the actual files are.  It is often then possible to
download those files.

The current main menu archives, available at

http://www2.acbradio.org/mainmenu/shows.php

seem to have download links for easy download. 

A quick and dirty approach to getting downloads when the provided link is an
.m3u is this:  Use the right mouse button, choice t to copy the shortcut to
the .m3u file. Once it's on the clipboard, use ctrl+o or ald+d to reach a
place in IE where you can paste an address.  Paste the address, then edit
the line, replacing m3u with mp3.  Hit enter.  Sometimes, you get a
download!

I don't completely understand the function and purpose of these files.
When I have wished to download audio files from such places as ACB
Radio's Main Menu and other sources I have not been able to retrieve an
actual file, even with the save as option.  It's my understanding that
each time I access a link with this extension the computer is connecting
to the server where the files are stored.  I ask myself what would
happen if I wanted to access a file which has been removed.  Would I
need to capture the material with Replay or Total Recorder, or is there
a way to retrieve and store the actual data on my own hard drive?  
I haven't looked at the new Main Menu site, but even if files can be
directly retrieved from there I would like a more complete explanation
of .m3u files.  Are these play lists?

Thanks as always in advance.

RE: REPLAY AV QUESTION

[Dean Martineau]

Don't buy any of them without using one of the promotional codes which will
save you a goodly chunk of money.  Applian has made these available to the
blind community.  I put them in Tidbits, so they're in the archive, or ask
when you decide on which product you'll buy and I, or somebody else, can
send you the relevant money-saving code.

The web site lists the programs found in the Capture Suite.  One which I
sometimes use is Replay Music, which lets you capture music from many of the
online music sites in such a way that each song is a separate recording,
named with the title and artist.  I think the Conversion utility is also a
part of that Suite.  I just checked the archive, and the discount codes give
$20 off the Capture Suite and $15 off Replay a/v.

RE: using Total Recorder 7 with software speech

[Dean Martineau]

Mike has provided an excellent framework for a comparison between Total
Recorder and Replay A/V.  I'll intersperse comments after his features,
which are unquestioned plusses for Replay A/v.
 (1)  ability to record a stream prior to its reaching the sound card.
This is the biggie; Total Recorder doesn't do it, and it is this that allows
Replay A/V to work in Vista as well as it works in xp, whereas Total
Recorder worksin Vista, but even with Window-Eyes and its ability to select
sound cards, not as well as it did in xp.

(2)  ability to record multiple streams simultaneiously and on a recurring 
schedule.
Both products will do this.


(3)  A feature allowing one to use RAV both as a recorder and a radio 
tuner independently and simultaneously. 
I don't think TR can do this.

(4)  An url finder feature allowing one to uncover stream urls that are 
often embedded in complex urls.  To me, this would be well worth the $50 
or so price tag for the product.

Another plus for Replay; Total Recorder has such a reature but I haven't
found it to be very accessible.

(5)  A built-in file converter which can be set to automatically convert 
recorded streams into the desired media format.
Both programs can do this.


(6)  An easy to use interface which follows conventional Windows menu 
structure. 
Both are strong here.


(7)  Each scheduled entry can be individually managed for file conversion, 
how long recordings are maintained, and with the ability to edit tags.
Again, both are good.

(8)  A wide variety of general program settings including the 
customization of names of created files.  These general settings include 
the ability to determine how the program will handle stream interruptions 
and how many times to attempt reconnects.
Again, both are good
Additional thoughts: I just prefer Total Recorder, if it would work, but it
won't with Vista.  I find, on an xp system, I have fewer problems with
Replay A/V recordings.

Mike says he uses another program sometimes because Replay can't bring the
computer out of hibernation.  I regularly have Replay A/V bring the computer
out of hibernation to make a recording.

Total Recorder has some other recording features and some avail add-ons, but
at this point, I would not buy it unless you know you'll never migrate to
Vista.  Replay A/V solves one of Vista's biggest disadvantages, that being
its crippled recording features.

RE: using Total Recorder 7 with software speech

[Dean Martineau]

In fact, I don't think there's much we can do about it, but I can always
hope that somebody can find a loophole.  Here is my response received from
High Criteria support:

Hello Dean Martineau,
 
Under Windows Vista with Total Recorder an output of another software
(including Internet transmission) can be recorded in three ways: 
 
The first one is in SoundBoard mode from a loop-back line. Regretfully
in this case you cannot avoid recording your screen-reader.

The second way is in Software mode using the Total Recorder user-mode
audio driver (for more information on using Total Recorder drivers
please refer to the following link
http://www.totalrecorder.com/tr_drivers.htm). Using this method you can
set Total Recorder to record an output only of a certain application.
Regretfully this method will not work with the majority of playback
program.
 
The third way is in Software mode using the Total Recorder kernel-mode
audio driver. For Total Recorder not to record a screen-reader in this
case you can try one of the following:
 
1) set a screen-reader to use directly your soundcard driver (not Total
Recorder driver);
2) do not set the Total Recorder driver as a system default device, but
set a playback program an output of which you need to record to use the
Total Recorder kernel-mode driver.

Regards,
High Criteria Support Team.

 its

 source has gone away with the new kernel driver.  Has anybody successfully
 made a recording with it and maintained screen reader use? I can't figure

RE: using Total Recorder 7 with software speech

[Dean Martineau]

Yes, Replay a/v is the definite choice for recording in Vista.  It captures
the audio or video stream before the soundcard ever sees it, so ordinary
computer use is not affected at all.

I'm in a position to advise somebody about an fm transmitter to send the

more expensive.  Please remind me of their name.  I have also gathered that

Subject: Thoughts and questions on Jango

Hi everyone.  Oh I just love http://www.Jango.com! However, I do have a few
questions I'm hoping someone out there can help me with.  

The first question concerns controlling the volume.  I do see a graphic that
Jaws reads as volume handle, but it doesn't appear to do anything.  Is
there a way I can control the player volume independently of the Windows
volume control?  This has been a drawback to using many players, as
sometimes the music overpowers Jaws.

Secondly, I am curious what codec they are using?  Is it MP3, Windows media
or what?  I did look in the FAQ, but it doesn't say.

Thirdly, how does it come up with your username?  Does it just use the part
of your E-mail to the left of the at sign?  I wanted to be caneprints, and
it did indeed let me have that username.  Do any of you have a Jango
profile?  I'm not really used to social networking and streaming together
like this, and of course Pandora was a disappointment, but it seems like a
pretty cool concept.  It's almost spooky though how quickly it learns the
type of music you like.  Heck, I have such diverse musical tastes that I
never thought any software would be able to make me happy, but I find that
I'm skipping fewer and fewer songs now the more I hang out at Jango.

When I put a txt file on a sd caard in the victor reader stream, I can't

screen or paragraph until I reach the locaation for inserting a bookmark.

Daisy books usually mark the chapters, sections etc.  I wasn't sure if I 
could actually make this happen or not.  I have some text for my students 
that are in ttxt format on cd.  I can move them to a bookport or victor 
reader stream. But when looking for a given place in the book, the student 
must get there in a very slow manner. I guess maybe after this first year of

using the books, the bookmarks would be in the bookport or victor reader 
stream for next year.  So that is why I was wondering. The publisher doesn't

have the text avilable in daisy or I would bought them as well as the txt 
copies.

Hope I diidn't go on too long with my explanation.begin

As a JAWS user, if I were using this program , I would create a new

disable the Next and Previous paragraph functions, which you won't use in
Vlc anyway, thereby liberating those keystrokes for use by the media player
without first having to type the JAWS pass through key.

I have found the results to be variable with the site I'm going to mention,
and I haven't used it for what you are asking, though it appears that it
should allow you to do what you want.  The site is 

http://www.zamzar.com

 Let us know how it works.

Hi,
I was just wondering, is there any possible way to download a YouTube video?
And if so, completely remove the graphic/video, and just have audio? Maybe
in Gold Wave, Sound Forge, or any of the other popular sound editers...

Thanks.
