Re: not seeing cd rom in my computer
High Kenneth, Is your computer a desk top or a lab top? If it is a desk top, then this may be what the problem is. In the back of those internal cd/DVD drives, there is a jumper. There are also a set of pens that are in a series of 6. They are sat up like a 2-way 6-way connected switch. They are labeled, master slave and cable. By default, that jumper is on the cable. All depending on how your computer is configured, you will have to change that jumper from cable to either master or slave. After you do that, It should work for you. I hope this info helps, good luck!

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
They may not know what you mean by accessible, just like I don't. If you mean can you turn them on and change stations, I don't know of an XM receiver you can't do that to. If you mean one that will speak everthing then you won't find one in either company. If you mean one that will partially speak then XM has them. They are usually some of the replay models. I can't remember what they are, but I have seen one. I'm still using my old PCR. On Oct 16, 2007, at 10:10 PM, Larry N wrote: > Hi.

Did I miss the model number? - Original Message - From: Bob Seed To: PC Audio Discussion List Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 10:42 PM Subject: Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please? Larry, I don't think that you are going to find a satellite receiver with speech output. The particular unit that I have is pretty straight forward, and the buttons are raised and are in a straight row at the bottom of the unit. They appear as little dots that are easy to feel. There are long bar type buttons on the front panel off to the left that perform other functions, and on the boombox itself there is a cluster of raised buttons; volume up, volume down, off, and mute. When you change channels you hear a little beep that tells you that you are indeed changing channels. The Source has this particular unit on sale for I believe to be $129. This of course, does not include the boombox that the unit clips into. This is a good unit for people with low vision, as the faunt on the display window can be changed. Ideally it would be nice to have a unit that would tell you verbally what song is playing. I am wondering if a speech device could be hooked up to the unit to read out the information on the display window. I think that it is dooable. This would be similar to the device that reads out the frequencies on ham radio equipment. - Original Message - From: "Larry N" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 10:10 PM Subject: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please? > Hi.

Re: problem with replay streams
Dennis A few points here: WCKG, as a CBS owned and operated station, is but one of many such stations that is giving fits, upon occasion, not only to Replay AV users but streaming listeners in general. Secondly, I probably wouldn't be spending much time attempting to solve this one as media reports indicate that WCKG is on life support, so to speak, and will most likely go through some format change by year's end (looking at the Arbitron ratings will tell you why) as the station never recovered from the loss of Howard Stern, the rover disaster, and Kevin Matthews not being renewed. I'll give WCKG a look later today; and, if I can solve the problem, I'll report back.

Re: problem with replay streams
Dennis Here is what I've discovered: Here are my findings: This problem isn't unique to 8.30 as Replay AV 8.21 shows the same behavior. The url listed in the Replay MediaGuide is http://www.replay-video.com/user/redirect_station.php?id=5459&format=WMP which records, but doesn't play as reported by the questioner. following stream plays, but won't record (obtained from StreamingRadioGuide (http://streamingradioguide.com): http://cbsplayer.streamtheworld.com/index.php?CALLSIGN=WCKGFM practical solution: create 2 entries in Replay AV one for recording purposes, and one for listening.

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
Hi Bob and thanks for the response. The truth is, I know next to nothing about sattelite receivers. I did phone XM, and was told they had no receivers with raised buttons. Probably not true, but I didn't appreciate the brush off. Now then, after reading your post, I have 2 questions. First, what is the name or number of the sirius model that you're using? Second, when you say that I would need to purchase the boombox that this unit would clip in to, are you talking about a standard stereo system or something else related to sattelite technonogy. Please forgive these very basic questions, but my only sattelite listening experience is through XM on Winamp. Thanks in advance.

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
Hi Tim. I agree. Excessible is a term that I use primarily within the confines of this group. After all, how is a sighted person supposed to know what that means to me. And even within this group it's almost a cliche. That being said, excessible to me means raised buttons for changing channels and all. Speech would be nice, but I didn't think it existed. When I asked XM Canada customer care whether or not they had raised buttons on their receivers, the person who responded said that they had no such receivers and thanked me for my interest.. I had hoped and still hope to find out which service offered the most functionality for me as a blind guy and then take it from there, learning which service offered more of what I want to hear.

Which Skype Recorder?
I have to admit, I'm a bit of an ostrich when it comes to certain things--if I don't need 'em, I tend to ignore 'em--until one day, the sun penetrates, my head pops up out of the technological quagmire in which it's been buried of late, and I discover there's actually some new tool out there that will do what I need done at the moment, and it's been around for aeons, and I just never took notice of it! Such is the case with Skype Recorder. However, there appear to be more than one such tool with the same name from different vendors/purveyors/authors. Just Google "skype recorder" and see what you get--a veritable cornucopia of responses, some free, some not, some even going under some kind of daily software giveaway program, probably long expired! So, my question comes down to this: Which one(s) have you used and with what degree of success and pleasure? Or, which one(s) have you used and to what degree of dislike or out-and-out dismay, and, of course, why to all of the above? Thanks for helping clear the fog on this one.

I have to admit, I'm a bit of an ostrich when it comes to certain things--if I don't need 'em, I tend to ignore 'em--until one day, the sun penetrates, my head pops up out of the technological quagmire in which it's been buried of late, and I discover there's actually some new tool out there that will do what I need done at the moment, and it's been around for aeons, and I just never took notice of it! Such is the case with Skype Recorder. However, there appear to be more than one such tool with the same name from different vendors/purveyors/authors. Just Google "skype recorder" and see what you get--a veritable cornucopia of responses, some free, some not, some even going under some kind of daily software giveaway program, probably long expired! So, my question comes down to this: Which one(s) have you used and with what degree of success and pleasure? Or, which one(s) have you used and to what degree of dislike or out-and-out dismay, and, of course, why to all of the above? Thanks for helping clear the fog on this one.

Re: problem with replay streams
Hi. What you can do, at least up until CKG changes formats is this. One go to your replay A/V screen and then go to tools with alt t and then go to the URL finder. 2. Now go to ckg's website and hit enter on the listen link. Let the audio play for about 15 or 20 seconds or so, and thentab back over to the other window for the URL finder. the address of the stream should be in the list that shows up there. you can then schedule it as a new show and schedule a new recording and stuff like that.

Re: problem with replay streams
But what I am wondering, is once you record the stream, can you listen later -- and is there a way to tell that the second stream you mentioned is not recording? Also, does tech support tell you anything useful about this?

Replay AV alternative
A few weeks ago, someone was discussing an alternative to Replay AV for recording streams. What was the name of the program or web site? I think it was something like Radio Time. Thanks.

Re: Replay AV alternative
The program is called RedButton and is available through www.radiotime.com. A 14-day free trial is offered. While I use both RedButton and Replay AV daily, the average blind user is likely to view RedButton as somewhat more difficult to use. The RadioTime online database of stations and programs is truly outstanding and is updated on an ongoing basis. RedButton costs aprox $30; but there is no charge for use of the online station/show database.

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
Larry, The sirius unit that I have is called Staarmate3. It comes complete with both car and home kits. The unit can be used in both the car and in the home. It also comes with two antennas, a small car antenna with a magnetic back, and a much larger antenna that can be fastened to a windowsill with a southern exposure. The catalogue number is: 1219809813 from the Source in Canada. They have two other models that are slightly newer with the same features of the unit that was previously mentioned. By the looks of the photograph it appears that these models also have raised buttons as well. The model numbers ar as follows: 1219812 and 1219807. All units come with a built-in FM transmitter so that you can transmit your favourite station to an FM radio in another room.

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
Garry,, The sirius unit that I have is called Staarmate3. It comes complete with both car and home kits. The unit can be used in both the car and in the home. It also comes with two antennas, a small car antenna with a magnetic back, and a much larger antenna that can be fastened to a windowsill with a southern exposure. The catalogue number is: 1219809813 from the Source in Canada. They have two other models that are slightly newer with the same features of the unit that was previously mentioned. By the looks of the photograph it appears that these models also have raised buttons as well. The model numbers ar as follows: 1219812 and 1219807. All units come with a built-in FM transmitter so that you can transmit your favourite station to an FM radio in another room. Hope this helps. - Original Message - From: "Gary Petraccaro" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 7:55 AM Subject: Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please? > Did I miss the model number? > > - Original Message - > From: Bob Seed > To: PC Audio Discussion List > Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 10:42 PM > Subject: Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please? > > > Larry, > I don't think that you are going to find a satellite receiver with speech > output.

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
You would really be doing yourself a discsrvice to yourself if you don't work with a reseller of the radios. In the first place, most of the receivers for both Sirius and XM have buttons you can feel and they beep for a lot of things. I haven't heard people do much talking about this but most of the receivers for XM have the same basic features that work the same way from receiver to receiver. The same is true for Sirius. You absolutely do not need a boom box for any receiver. On my Sirius receiver I use the home docking unit and hook it up to my Bose. Some of the newer units don't even require a home or car docking kit. What's really important is what service works best in your area and you should also get a hands on look.

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
Larry, The antenna comes with a 21 foot long wire, so it is possible to mount the antenna on a rooftop if necessary. If you have an internal wall facing south that might work, however if there is a overhang that could also pose a problem. The antenna has to be facing south, otherwise you will have dropout of the signal coming from the cluster of transmitting satellites. The antenna is mounted on a hinged type base that can be adjusted to maximize the strength of the incoming signal in much the same way that one adjusts a TV or FM radio antenna. I find that a 45degree angle of the antenna seems to worke best for me. . . - Original Message - From: "Larry N" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 9:34 PM Subject: Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please? > Bob, is a window with a southern exposure necessary for this antenna to > function properly??

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
It is not necessary to have a boombox, although it comes in handy when you want to take your radio out on the deck or paddio. Keep in mind that the signal from the built in FM transmitter doesn't travel very far. It is set upin such a way that you can pick up Sirius satelite radio on your car radio thus eliminating the use of wire. The fM transmitter that Jonathan has would compliment these radios very well getting the FM signal out loud and clear. .

Re: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
I really think a lot of the antenna placement depends on location. I'm in central Iowa, and I have one antenna which sits atop our kitchen cupboard, pointing straight up. The other is on our deck, southwest side of the house, again pointing straight up. Each person needs to experiment and see what is best for them.

Re: a winamp question
Hello. use the direct sound out and then you can adjust onthe fly. I use it in my broadcasting and I'musing it nw as I'm typing this message. the music is way below jaws just the way I like it.. SA&G - Original Message - From: "Ted Phillips" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'PC Audio Discussion List'" Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 8:39 AM Subject: a winamp question Hi listers. I have been seeing this thread about winamp versus WMP for a while, and the only problem I can see with winamp, especially is that if I use the direct sound output the volume is well below the volume of jaws. This sometimes causes problems. If I bring the EQ up to try to compensate for it, it sometimes saturates the player with weird results. If anyone knows a way around this, I would be interested in hearing it.
