Re: Replay Radio with WinEyes
Bobcat, you might try using the replay radio driver. It is reached in the same way you access your usual sound card driver under volume, advanced properties, or at least I think it is. Under my options I have the two or three things listed most of which I can't recall and didn't recognize back when I last looked. One was the replay radio driver which appearred under properties for gboth the record and the play modes. I think it is recommended onlyh if the recordings aren't working. You might try it and see if it helps.

If you want to rip a CD to your hard drive and then select some of the tracks to compile a CD then you'd do well to check out CDEX which is a free, easy to use ripper.

Hi David. I've also experienced problems like this occasionally. You may wish to set the use jitter correction control to Yes when you copy a CD. This may help as often when copying from one CD drive to another, minor clocking differences between the two drives can introduce jitter.

RE: the Book Port
Allow me to answer two postings in one-- I believe that the firmware in the BookPort over the Book Courier will support Daisy format 3.0 where the Book Courier currently was only supporting Daisy format 2.2. Whether that makes any difference at this time is not that important as there are not many books available in Daisy 3.0. The BookPort is a product of the American Printing House for the Blind, Inc. information about the BookPort can be found at their website at: http://www.aph.org/ You can find a website on the Book courier at: http://www.bookcourier.com/ And for all interested parties, go to the web of the American Foundation for the Blind's Accessworld for July 2004 and read a comparison report of the two devices we are talking about here. http://www.afb.org/accessworld/ Aloha, Milton M.

Re: the Book Port
Hi, The Book Port is sold by the American Printing House for the Blind. http://www.aph.org/tech Robert Carter At 07:05 PM 7/10/2004, you wrote: and where do you find this program/ player? - Original Message - From: Robert Carter [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, July 10, 2004 6:38 PM Subject: Re: the Book Port Hi, I would respectfully disagree with this. The Book Port was designed specifically for people who are blind. It will play contracted grade 2 files and the transfer software is much more designed to work well giving one audio feedback as transfers are happening. Both devices use the same basic hardware with some differences in the keypad and the user interface. Again, I put my vote in for the Book Port. The current public beta will even allow one to speed-up audio files compressing them without changing the pitch. It will play Audible files as well.

It plays everything and will soon be playing books from audible. I was wondering if anyone uses it and what do they think of the accessibility and the voice quality?

Re: the Book Port
While I totally agree with Mr. Carter about the book port, and I purchased one at the very outset, I haven't heard of any upgrades. Can anyone tell me whether there have been any?
