Need Advice on Music Download Services
In exploring the world of online music download services, so far, I've found the easiest to use, and the best one-stop-shopping venue, to be Real.com's Music Store. However, I don't like using RealPlayer for playing back or organizing the music files on my hard drive. For that, I much prefer Winamp. So, I'm reluctant to start buying rax files, from Real.com, in any big way, until I understand if/how I'll be able to get generic mp3/wav files out of them, which I can then browse and play with Winamp. will I have to burn my Real.com purchases to CD, then rip them to my hard drive? Is that the best way? So far, at least, I envision doing all of this on my desktop computer, no IPod or other portable devices involved. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks.

Foobar2000
Hi, I'm dong something I didn't think I'd do, and that is start to look for alternatives to my beloved Winamp player. The last few versions have been so buggy, and I now have a huge playlist that chokes Winamp, sometimes. What free alternative players can anyone recommend? Does anyone have any experience with the Foobar2000 player? Is it at all screen reader friendly? Any and all suggestions are welcome. And, if there is a way to help Winamp to handle my ever growing playlist size well that would be even better. Thanks. ~Ann --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.

Re: Roxio5 and CD image files
Here's how to do it in version 4.2. Maybe this will work for your friend. This is from the jfwlite.com site. Preparation: 1. Close all files running in the "systems tray" that you do not need, especially "virus checkers". 2. Create a new folder on your hard drive, if you don't know how see below. 3. Start your "windows explorer" program. 4. You will be positioned on the line just below the "c" hard drive line. Hit "alt+f" and enter on the first item. Hit enter on "folder" which is the first item. You will be in a edit field enter the name of the folder you wish to create (I used "cdmusic") and hit enter. 5. Return to the desktop. Begin create CD procedure. 1. Do not put a blank CD into your CD writer until instructed. 2. Hit "insert+f11" (system tray) and arrow down to "adaptec create cd" and hit enter. 3. The first item will be "audio sub menu" hit enter. 4. The first item on the next screen will be "audio cd" hit enter on it. 5. This will bring up a screen "Untitled easy Cd creator" and you will be positioned on the "c" drive, in the tree view, right arrow to open. 6. Arrow down to "program files" (I type "pro" and it goes there) right arrow to open. 7. Arrow down to "napster" (I type "n" to get there) right arrow to open. 8. Arrow down to "music" (I type "m" to get there) and hit tab to open the list. 9. Arrow down to the first title you wish to select and hit the space bar to select, now you may hold down the control key and arrow down to the next title you wish to select and hit space bar to select. I wanted all 21 titles in my "music" folder, so I hit "ctrl+a" to select all. 10. Hit "alt+e" (for edit) and arrow down to "add selected" (you may hit "s" to go directly). 11. Tab, this will bring up a edit field "cd title" (this is an optional entery). 12. Tab again this will bring up "Artist name" (this is optional). 13. Tab again this will put you in "cd layout", here titles will be arranged alphabetically by artist then by title, you can cut and paste your titles so as to arrange the order you want the songs on your CD. 14. Now that you have your music arranged in the order you would like it to appear on the CD, hit "alt+f" (for file), arrow down to "create CD image" and hit enter. This will bring up a edit box for "file name", put in your path and file name, (I used "c:\cdmusic\various"). 15. Tab, this puts you in "file type", this is OK as is, proceed to the next step. 16. Tab, this places you on the "save" button, hit enter. 17. Now the "create CD image" has began, wait a couple minutes then route your "jaws to PC cursor", arrow up 3 lines, (I set my screen echo to none), here you can follow the progress of the image creation. When the creation phase is completed you will be positioned on the "OK", hit enter. 18. You are now returned to the "untitled Easy CD" menu screen. 19. You are now ready to burn the CD from the image, place a blank CD in the CD writer and close the drawer. 20. Hit "alt+F" (for file) arrow down to "Create CD from CD image" and hit enter, you will be in a edit box for "file name", type in the path and file name you created in the previous phase (I used "c:\cdmusic\various", this will open the file and begin creating the CD. With your "jaws" cursor you can follow the progress, this will not take as long as the previous phase. When this phase is completed you will have to locate the "OK" and left click on it to begin to close the process. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/24/2005 12:59:15 AM >>> Hi, this is Steve.

No, one can upload recordings with the MZ-RH910 however, one has to use SonicStage and I often heard, that it sometimes eats uploaded files, after which they're neither on the MD nor on the PC.

Very basic iPodder question, to start with
Okay, here goes: I've successfully downloaded and installed the iPodder v.
2.0.1 Beta, and have just read over its instructions in the readme file for
the first time. After the list of improvements that the Beta version
offers, the actual instructions seem to be exactly the same as the readme
file I looked at when I originally installed version 2.0.
anyway, until I actually launch iPodder and explore its interface with Jaws,
I'm not going to be able to ask many good questions. But one thing I think
isn't premature to ask is about synchronizing. I've already seen the term
used in conjunction with other, related things like the management of
downloads from audible.com, but I confess to not understanding what the
concept means, yet.
Let me specify how I imagine using iPodder, and then someone tell me where
the term synch comes in, if at all, in that scenario: All I imagine doing
is setting up iPodder at first so that I can check for new downloads of
certain daily or weekly programs on my local NPR station's Web site. I just
want to be told if a new program ("feed," should I be saying?) is available,
and then, if I wish to, issuing a command to download it to the player.
Then I expect to have a choice between either using iPodder to play the
file on my computer (couldn't it be played on WMP, Real Player, or Winamp?)
or, if I wish instead, to copy it to my .mp3 player to listen to that way.
I don't want to leave that player connected to my USB port all the time and
have things being copied onto it automatically. It's just a little flash
memory player I use for audible.com programs, and I don't even have any idea
how large these podcast files are likely to be. It's not as if I have an
iPod and can just cram it full of stuff, indiscriminately.
So, does what I'm describing fit the term "synching?" Or is there no
synchronization involved because I'm only talking about downloading files
and later, if I wish, copying some of them onto a mobile device?
This is a really basic orientation question, and I hope someone can help me
understand the terms here. I know what it means, generally, to synchronize
something with something else, but the word doesn't seem to have its usual
meaning in this context. What's being synched with what? I just don't get
the concept. And does what I want to do even have anything to do with that
term, anyway?
Thanks,
Daniel

Re: Very basic iPodder question, to start with
hi Dan
Basically, you leave iPodder running in the background. It's a set it and
forget it type of thing. You set iPodder to check every so often and it
goes out and checks all your feeds in the background. and when you have
time, you can check a specific folder and you notice that there are new
shows available. You play these in Winamp or another player, iPodder is a
downloading program, kind of like a manager that you set to check things
for you. the synching comes into play because iPodder needs to be able to
know what's been downloaded and what hasn't so all that's done in the
background. So again, subscribe to your favorite podcasts, and leave it
running all the time and your new shows will come in when they show up.
At 02:14 PM 5/24/2005, you wrote:
Okay, here goes: I've successfully downloaded and installed the iPodder v.
2.0.1 Beta, and have just read over its instructions in the readme file for
the first time. After the list of improvements that the Beta version
offers, the actual instructions seem to be exactly the same as the readme
file I looked at when I originally installed version 2.0.
anyway, until I actually launch iPodder and explore its interface with Jaws,
I'm not going to be able to ask many good questions. But one thing I think
isn't premature to ask is about synchronizing. I've already seen the term
used in conjunction with other, related things like the management of
downloads from audible.com, but I confess to not understanding what the
concept means, yet.
Let me specify how I imagine using iPodder, and then someone tell me where
the term synch comes in, if at all, in that scenario: All I imagine doing
is setting up iPodder at first so that I can check for new downloads of
certain daily or weekly programs on my local NPR station's Web site. I just
want to be told if a new program ("feed," should I be saying?) is available,
and then, if I wish to, issuing a command to download it to the player.
Then I expect to have a choice between either using iPodder to play the
file on my computer (couldn't it be played on WMP, Real Player, or Winamp?)
or, if I wish instead, to copy it to my .mp3 player to listen to that way.
I don't want to leave that player connected to my USB port all the time and
have things being copied onto it automatically. It's just a little flash
memory player I use for audible.com programs, and I don't even have any idea
how large these podcast files are likely to be. It's not as if I have an
iPod and can just cram it full of stuff, indiscriminately.
So, does what I'm describing fit the term "synching?" Or is there no
synchronization involved because I'm only talking about downloading files
and later, if I wish, copying some of them onto a mobile device?
This is a really basic orientation question, and I hope someone can help me
understand the terms here. I know what it means, generally, to synchronize
something with something else, but the word doesn't seem to have its usual
meaning in this context. What's being synched with what? I just don't get
the concept. And does what I want to do even have anything to do with that
term, anyway?
Thanks,
Daniel

Re: Minidisc recorder Drawback
Shane, I know the DS-2 and the WS-200s. The DS-2 has bigger buttons and a bigger speaker. It can only record up to one hour in its S-HQ mode, because it has 64 megs of memory and uses 128 KBPS for its S-HQ mode. The WS-200s can record up to four hours in its S-HQ mode, because it has 128 megs of memory and uses 64 KBPS. None of the two can be used with an AC adapter. One can listen to the end of the last recording with the DS-2 by skipping to it and then pressing back, while in stop mode. This isn't possible on the WS-200s, because the WS is just a note taking recorder, while Olympus sees the DS-2 as a kind of dictation machine. Also, to connect the DS-2 with a PC, one has to use a USB cable, but the WS-200s has a built-in USB plug. <*** Michael Lang ***> You wrote: > Hello, Michael and list.

Re: Very basic iPodder question, to start with
Hi Christopher,
In other words, it's kind of academic for me to be wondering why the
operation is called synchronizing (has anyone thought to use the Jaws
dictionary to force it to say "sink" instead of pronouncing "synch" the way
it does? Drives me nuts). I guess that just refers to setting its schedule
for checking a site for new feeds/programs. If that's so, how come when you
set a VCR to record a sitcom, you don't talk about synching the VCR to the
network "feeds?" Don't get caught up in the question. I'm just fascinated
with language. Professional hazard. In any case, I haven't set a VCR for a
few years, so I guess that was a nostalgic analogy...
Thanks,
Danny

Re: Minidisc recorder Drawback
Michael. The new Olympus interests me. I just lost my Olympus VN1800 So I'm in the market for another memory aid. Will be nice for recording choir practices too. They finally came out with the sort of recorder I wanted. Only wish it had more memory but 128 megs will do, especially for the aprox $100 price tag. I sure hope it uses multiple beeps for selecting folders the way my 1800 did. It had 1 to 4 short beeps for 4 folders. The other functions on the 1800 had useful audible tons as well. Only thing I could not work was the calendar function. I notice that a model reviewed on Main menu only used one tone so it was harder to keep track of folders. That was a step in the wrong direction from Olympus. I would go for a Mini-disk but it seems they all have some sort of accessability drawbacks. I'll have to figure out a way to keep the new Olympus from getting away from me. Maybe I'll use the neck cord. - Original Message - From: "Michael Lang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.

Re: Minidisc recorder Drawback
Hey there, Will and all. Well, the unit is quite small, and it has several recording modes, both stereo and mono. The stereo and one of the mono settings save their files as Windows Media Audio, and the other two mono modes save their recordings in the proprietary DSS format. All the modes sound quite good. The length of the recording time is as follows, approximately: High-quality stereo, 1HR 10MN; standard stereo 2HR 20MN; High Quality Mono 4HR 40MN; standard Mono 10HR; and low quality mono 22HR. I use mine all the time. The menus all default to there normal setting after you've used them, so there is only a little bit of memorization in order to operate the unit. Battery life is very nice; and it comes with a USB docking cradle, so you do not necessarily need the USB cord, if you don't want to use it. Also, it can be used as a USB microphone and a USB speaker, which can be good if you are using dictation software such as Dragon of ViaVoice. It also has voice activated recording and mic sensativity selections. On playback, it comes with some different noise cancellation settings. The buttons are fairly big, for the most part, and the speaker sounds pretty good. The ear buds that come with the unit are very decent, and it even comes with a carry-case that is cool, too. It uses two tripple A batteries, and it has a headphone input, 3.5MM and a mic input, also 3.5MM. That is the standard MINI stereo plug, in case I got the millimeters wrong. There you have some of the more useful features, and the price tag is around US $149, but it can be found on the internet a little cheaper. Sometime in the not-too-distant future, I may do a review of this little recorder. I trust this information is helpful to the list.

Re: Minidisc recorder Drawback
I've had mini disc recorders since 1996 and really love them. I have the sony 505, and even though it doesn't have a mike input, I use it to listen to music while I ring bells during xmas time for the Salvation Army. I do have a sony MZR90. An it's one of the older portable models and it does have a mike input. The only thing is when you get in to the menue, you need to keep track of the amount of times you move the wheel to keep track of which function you want to go too. I also have an MDSJE480 home minidis recorder, and I really love it. That one and the 505 portable will play the LP2 LP4 and the SP sampling rates. But the MZR90 will only play the SP sampling rates. The MDSJE 480 doesn't have a mike input. I do have a stereo tie clip mike I use for the MZR90. It's a cheap mike, but really it sounds quite nice. the only draw back with the MZR90 is that you can't move it around much while in the record mode, or it will mistrack. But over all I like the minidisk format quite well. Kevin On Tue, 24 May 2005 15:49:08 -0600 "Bobcat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Michael. The new Olympus interests me.

Re: recording talking books
Hi there, Well, as far as your talking book player from NlS and your handi cassette recorder, you could plug the patch cord into the earphone jack. As far as your stereo, you can either plug it in the earphone jack or if you have them, the line out jack on the back of the unit. Note about using your stereo: Unless you use a program like GoldWave or Total Recorder, you will not be able to use your stereo because your stereo will play the tapes twice as fast as they were recorded. Plus, your stereo will play two sides (tracks) at a time. Hope this helps, Chris Chaffin - Original Message - From: "Allison Mervis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.

I personally prefer to use a program like total recorder or goldwave. With these programs you can actually do the recording faster, plus you can edit the recorded file if needed. But of coarse total recorder and goldwave are not freeware. With CDex, you first must connect a player that can play the tapes up to the line in jack on the back of your computer.

If Sound Forge won't work I'm willing to go anywhere, download anything so that I can get this project started. Thanks for your help in advance.

RE: Roxio5 and CD image files
Talk about going all around the houses. Just open up EZ creator and select either a music or data cd and then select the tracks from within the ap as mentioned below or cut and paste them into the track list and then go to the file menu having put a blank cd in the drive and enter on record. There are a few settings that can be tweaked in here and then you have your cd. No need for the two steps as below. If you really want to keep an image of it it offers you that option once the cd is burned.

Create a new folder on your hard drive, if you don't know how see below. 3. Start your "windows explorer" program. 4. You will be positioned on the line just below the "c" hard drive line. Hit "alt+f" and enter on the first item. Hit enter on "folder" which is the first item. You will be in a edit field enter the name of the folder you wish to create (I used "cdmusic") and hit enter. 5. Return to the desktop. Begin create CD procedure. 1. Do not put a blank CD into your CD writer until instructed. 2. Hit "insert+f11" (system tray) and arrow down to "adaptec create cd" and hit enter. 3. The first item will be "audio sub menu" hit enter. 4. The first item on the next screen will be "audio cd" hit enter on it. 5. This will bring up a screen "Untitled easy Cd creator" and you will be positioned on the "c" drive, in the tree view, right arrow to open. 6.

Arrow down to the first title you wish to select and hit the space bar to select, now you may hold down the control key and arrow down to the next title you wish to select and hit space bar to select. I wanted all 21 titles in my "music" folder, so I hit "ctrl+a" to select all. 10. Hit "alt+e" (for edit) and arrow down to "add selected" (you may hit "s" to go directly). 11. Tab, this will bring up a edit field "cd title" (this is an optional entery). 12. Tab again this will bring up "Artist name" (this is optional). 13. Tab again this will put you in "cd layout", here titles will be arranged alphabetically by artist then by title, you can cut and paste your titles so as to arrange the order you want the songs on your CD. 14. Now that you have your music arranged in the order you would like it to appear on the CD, hit "alt+f" (for file), arrow down to "create CD image" and hit enter. This will bring up a edit box for "file name", put in your path and file name, (I used "c:\cdmusic\various"). 15. Tab, this puts you in "file type", this is OK as is, proceed to the next step. 16. Tab, this places you on the "save" button, hit enter. 17. Now the "create CD image" has began, wait a couple minutes then route your "jaws to PC cursor", arrow up 3 lines, (I set my screen echo to none), here you can follow the progress of the image creation. When the creation phase is completed you will be positioned on the "OK", hit enter. 18. You are now returned to the "untitled Easy CD" menu screen. 19. You are now ready to burn the CD from the image, place a blank CD in the CD writer and close the drawer. 20. Hit "alt+F" (for file) arrow down to "Create CD from CD image" and hit enter, you will be in a edit box for "file name", type in the path and file name you created in the previous phase (I used "c:\cdmusic\various", this will open the file and begin creating the CD.
