I have it, and it works perfect for me. You need about an hour or to ajust 
on it but at the end its simple to use. Just make sure if you decide to take 
it, that you change its firmware to an UMS version. With that firmware you 
will be able to use the player as a regular usb drive, or otherwise you will 
not be able to transfer all files to the player and from the player.

streaming trouble

2005-06-18 Thread Betsy
Hi,

I just inherited a computer running XP, am using JFW 4.02  and am having almost 
no luck trying to play streams.  I'm not sure which version of media player I 
have and cannot figure out how to get it to play in a separate window.  99% of 
the time nothing happens at all when I click on a station, I just find myself 
still sitting on the link I tried to play and the one station I can play takes 
over the window so cannot continue browsing for other stations, but can't do 
anything like change volume or see any controls of any type.  I've tried 
running the demo of JFW 5.10 with no luck either.

I guess that was a very long way of saying I have no earthly idea how to work 
with this media player and streams and would greatly appreciate any help or 
suggestions anyone could give.

Betsy

Hello,

I have never previously needed to use the cddb facility in Cdex 1.51,
and I can't figure out how to configure it.  Would someone please take
me step by step through this process.

By the way, I am having a similar problem when attempting to configure

Definitions requested and need a question answered.

2005-06-18 Thread Donald L. Roberts
Hello,

I have good success burning either audio or data cds using Nero 5.5. 
Most of the time, I just use the wizard.  But now I am thinking of
upgrading to Nero 6.6.  I understand there is no wizard in 6.6, yet I
know that a lot of people really like it.  So what are the advantages
of this version over 5.5?

Also, I would like definitions for the following cd burning terms:

1.  Exaclink.

2.  Mount Rainier formatting.

3.  Under burn.

and

4.  m r read and write.

I know that Mount Rainier formatting has something to do with the incd
packet writing software, but I would like to know the specifics. Thanks
in advance for responses.

Total Recorder and Winamp

2005-06-18 Thread Tim Walsh
Hello,

 

I'm setting up a new PC running XP professional. I've installed Total
Recorder 5.2 Standard Edition and winamp 5.092, and I've encountered the
conflict presented by the Total Recorder software driver.

 

I kinda need that driver; at least until I get my second soundcard (Jerry?).
So I'd appreciate any help on resolving this conflict.

 

If resolution isn't possible, I'd appreciate step-by-step instructions on
Total Recorder settings that will enable me to record streams from the Web.

 

Apologies if I'm covering old ground. I serched the archives and found
queries on this matter, as well as mention of a registry patch. However, I
did not find any solutions or info about the patch (including where to get
it).

Re: Definitions requested and need a question answered.

2005-06-18 Thread Yardbird
Please forgive the intrusion, but what's the Wizard mentioned here?  I have 
Nero 6, and the only options I'm aware of for using it are either to use the 
Smart Start interface that isn't Jaws accessible, or, and this is the method 
I use, just go to the Nero item on the Start/Programs menu, open the 
submenu, and click on the module you want to use, such as Nero Burning ROM, 
as opposed to the Backup function or the other one.

But if Version 6 has this Wizard thing and it simplifies the procedure for 
you if you're using a screen reader, I'd love to know about it.  Although 
all controls seem to be pretty well labeled for Jaws, or should I say spoken 
by Jaws, I get pretty confused trying figure out where I am and on which 
page or tab is where I'm supposed to click to to begin a burn or a copy. 
Sometimes, as happened yesterday, I was trying to copy a music CD and it was 
only after wandering around and around a bunch of tabs and checking settings 
until I was pleasantly disoriented that I somehow came upon a button to 
press for Copy.  I hadn't even come across it in my several rotations 
through the tabs for making burn settings and stuff.

It's pretty confusing and frustrating this way.  So what's up with the 
Wizard deal?

Thanks.

Hi Susan,
I'm in the process of rejoining Blindtech so as soon as I start receiving
messages I will post there, but if you will post to PC-audio for me I'd
appreciate it.

The person who has the USB card just calls it a USB Creative card so I'm not
sure what that means, and I'm not real sure what onboard card I have either,
when I go into system properties under device manager I find something
called a VIA AC97 Enhanced Audio Controller under sound cards, and there's
also a Legacy audio driver so I'm not sure, for all I know neither of those
are my sound card.  Smile.

RE: Total Recorder and Winamp

2005-06-18 Thread Tim Walsh
Susan,
Thanks. My output plugin already is set to Direct sound.

I'm getting the following error in Winamp when I try to launch the 128K
stream from WFMU.org:

Bad direct sound driver. Please install the proper driver or select another
device in configuration. Error 8878000a

Upon further investigation, I don't get the error if I unload Jaws before
launching the stream. , and the stream comes up fine. Before I installed
Total Recorder, I could run JAWS and stream simultaneously. BTW, I'm running
JAWS with Eloquence.

So I guess I need to get JAWS out of the way. Aside from unloading Jaws, am
I out of luck until I get my second soundcard?

Hi Susan,
I'm in the process of rejoining Blindtech so as soon as I start receiving
messages I will post there, but if you will post to PC-audio for me I'd
appreciate it.

The person who has the USB card just calls it a USB Creative card so I'm not
sure what that means, and I'm not real sure what onboard card I have either,
when I go into system properties under device manager I find something
called a VIA AC97 Enhanced Audio Controller under sound cards, and there's
also a Legacy audio driver so I'm not sure, for all I know neither of those
are my sound card.  Smile.
Troy

Re: converting real audio to mp3

Hi Allison,

There is a program called RM to MP3 converter that you can buy from 
www.rmconverter.com that will do what you want.  I don't know how 
accessible it is.

Please forgive the intrusion, but what's the Wizard mentioned here?  I have
Nero 6, and the only options I'm aware of for using it are either to use the
Smart Start interface that isn't Jaws accessible, or, and this is the method
I use, just go to the Nero item on the Start/Programs menu, open the
submenu, and click on the module you want to use, such as Nero Burning ROM,
as opposed to the Backup function or the other one.

But if Version 6 has this Wizard thing and it simplifies the procedure for
you if you're using a screen reader, I'd love to know about it.  Although
all controls seem to be pretty well labeled for Jaws, or should I say spoken
by Jaws, I get pretty confused trying figure out where I am and on which
page or tab is where I'm supposed to click to to begin a burn or a copy.
Sometimes, as happened yesterday, I was trying to copy a music CD and it was
only after wandering around and around a bunch of tabs and checking settings
until I was pleasantly disoriented that I somehow came upon a button to
press for Copy.  I hadn't even come across it in my several rotations
through the tabs for making burn settings and stuff.

It's pretty confusing and frustrating this way.  So what's up with the
Wizard deal?

Thanks.

Hello,

I have good success burning either audio or data cds using Nero 5.5.
Most of the time, I just use the wizard.  But now I am thinking of
upgrading to Nero 6.6.  I understand there is no wizard in 6.6, yet I
know that a lot of people really like it.  So what are the advantages
of this version over 5.5?

Also, I would like definitions for the following cd burning terms:

1.  Exaclink.

2.  Mount Rainier formatting.

3.  Under burn.

and

4.  m r read and write.

I know that Mount Rainier formatting has something to do with the incd
packet writing software, but I would like to know the specifics. Thanks
in advance for responses.

RE: Total Recorder and Winamp

Hi, Tim, try launching total recorder first, then press control r for

Total recorder apparently sees winamp as another driver, or something
like that, and that's the way I've always done it with no problems.

Before deciding whether you need a registry patch, you might try changing 
the output plugin from Wavout to Direct sound and see whether that allows 
you to record successfully.  From your message i wasn't sure if you were 
having problems recording at all or if you are trying to filter out software

speech, two somewhat different issues.  hth.

Re: Total Recorder and Winamp

2005-06-18 Thread Susan Wojtecki

Tim,
What OS?  I had all kinds of problems with Windows 98, especially if I 
switched between total Recorder and chat software like ivocalize and Winamp 
or Winmx and absolutely couldn't record software streams without an external 
synthe.  With XP i'm having none of those error messages and people's 
results seem to vary somewhat across systems from what i've heard.  i'm not 
sure whether I have the registry patch but I'll look to see if i can find 
out what it was called.  i got it from Dean Martineau, but i'm pretty sure 
it is available directly from High Criteria's website.  I don't know for 
sure that you need a second sound card, but it sounds like your best bet at 
this point.  As I said, i haven't had problems with Eloquence and TR under 
XP, but had been contemplating getting a USB soundcard for use with .wav 
dictation files as a medical transcription student.  Fortunately, i found 
someone who was very anxious to sell a Dectalk Express thanks to a tip from 
someone on a mailing list and did not have to pay any more than a second 
sound card would have cost, so guess which option I went with?  Hope this 
helps some and that I haven't been too confusing.

Re: help for a friend

2005-06-18 Thread Susan Wojtecki

Doc,
He understands about that, smile.  Problem is that he needs to use a 
dedicated player for the .wav files with a foot pedal, and there's no way to 
do this within Winamp.  The player he has contains some hotkeys for moving 
through files, but I think you have to move in and out of the player window 
to use them effectively and there is no way to maintain the level of speed 
he is used to without a foot pedal.  it's a frustrating problem which most 
transcriptionists solve by either unloading JAWS so they don't blast their 
ears out when they have to turn the volume up on .wav files, or else those 
of us who are lucky enough to either have an external synthe or maybe a 
braille device can get some help there.  Would be a great suggestion if it 
worked.

RE: Total Recorder and Winamp

2005-06-18 Thread Tim Walsh
Hello everybody, particularly Susan and Marty,

Marty, I always launch total Recorder before my audio source, and I'm still
getting the Direct sound version 2.3 error in winamp.

Susan, I'm on a brand new PC running XP Pro and Jaws with Eloquence.

Funny thing: my old machine's OS is 98 SE, and I never had a problem. My
synth on that machine was an old DecTalk Express  on life support with a
broken on/off switch and a rather suspect headphone jack. My new machine has
only one serial port that's clearly for the monitor. I do have a monitor
connected, as I have some vision and sometimes use the monitor. 

I wasn't too concerned about the single serial port, as I was planning to
retire the DecTalk Express (given its decrepit condition), and go with
software speech on a dedicated soundcard and purchase a high quality second
sound card for all other audio. I hope to make that purchase soon. In the
meantime, I was hoping to make do with what I have, because I typically
archive 6 to 8 hours of streaming radio per week.

I don't know what the registry patch is supposed to accomplish. I just saw
mention of it on the list. I'm open to more suggestions, be it the patch or
otherwise.

Tim

Re: Total Recorder and Winamp

2005-06-18 Thread Susan Wojtecki

Tim,
I don't know how it works technically, smile, but as i remember it is 
supposed to filter out software speechin conjunction with the TR driver 
which normally blocks extraneous Windows sounds.  Interesting that your 
problems are with XP, which is the opposite of what I've heard most people 
report.  it's such a great program when it works but seems difficult to 
replicate problems from one user to another.


Anyway, tomorrow I'll try to locate my saved messages referencing the 
registry patch.  i obtained it shortly before backing up some files from my 
98 machine to CD so may have saved it but not installed or  transferred it 
to new PC.  If not I know where to get the information and it may be worth a 
try for you, particularly if it saves the expense of a secondary soundcard 
and the aggravation of configuring it if you had no other reason to consider 
purchasing one.
