Re: the old fm transmitter question again

[Gary Wood]

I hear that if you have Tivo, you can with a home network stream your 
computer throughout the house through your cable TV.  Someone had mentioned 
that he plugged his Voice Sense into his stereo unit using a home network, 
and he was able to stream music from his computer throughout the house.

This sounds like a problem in one of your output devices in your amplifier.
If you are getting no sound from that channel, then your output chip and or

Hi. The two speakers are connected to the subwoofers. And from there is the
wire with volume tuner and there's something written in there, to sub and
from source. It is then connected to the computer.

Hi.
I believe I'm understanding that you have two jacks for 2.1 speakers? truth 
be known, there should only be one jack necessary. I believe that if you 
have to use two jacks like that with that setup, probably your issue is 
getting your sound card to realize that the left channel is plugged into one

jack on the sound card and the right is in another. Let us know if that 
helps any.

Re: the old fm transmitter question again

[Dave McLean]

The British company you're probably thinking of is Veronica.
They still have the old vfo unit and they sell a 100 milliwat unit (among 
other more high powered units).
The 100 mw unit however requires you to open the box and set switches 
internally to change the frequency.
If you don't care about that it's a great unit.

For $99 you can get the Mobileblackbox v6000 which is a small unit, about 
the size of a cigarette pack, has good sound and has buttons to adjust the 
frequency and power.  Only problem is it's mono.  If that isn't a problem it 
is also a good choice.
Ramsey Electronics makes good hobby units but they are only sold as kits.
For about $300 there is a company from Canada called Wavemach which makes a 
decent unit as well and for an extra $35 the manufacturer will add buttons 
to adjust the frequency, and from what I understand, the power as well.
I could go on for quite awhile listing them but here is the point where they 
start getting pricey.

Re: the old fm transmitter question again

[Dave McLean]

Just to add to my other post:

If you can find one on Ebay that is assembled the Ramsey Fm100B does 
everything you'd want in a transmitter that would connect to your computer 
and transmit your music around the house.
The advantage of that transmitter is that it has its own built in mixer with 
2 sets of rca inputs and a microphone jack.  The frequency is also easy to 
set and it locks as well so you can't inadvertently knock it off frequency.
It also has its own built in whip antenna.
If you can find one assembled it's about as plug 'n play as it gets.

Re: Magicjack and Screenreaders

[Curtis Delzer]

Ok, I'll try that -- just did, found what you're talking about, but only can 
hear "slider 2," but cannot determine any changes, and if slider 2 is the 
microphone of the output of the phone, (microphone over the line) that would 
be nice to control in some way. I tried re-classing in Window-Eyes to see if 
the "custom control," could be made into a "up down control," or some other 
scrollable control, no luck, no difference in the amount of change viewable, 
as you say by a screen reader. I made the assumption that these sliders were 
for headset volume and microphone volume of the headset/USB devices, did not 
know they could make a change in the magic jack volume which is quite high 
over the phone, here. :)
Thanks!

Hello Curtis,   tab around too the menu button, hig space bar, arrow down,
says something like  phone or head set volume enter,  I'm just not sure the
screen reader will read these sliders.  It may say slider one and slider 2
slider 2 iss the microphone vvolume.  After you change the volume, be sure
and tab around to the OK button, which all so saves your changes.

the old fm transmitter question again

[Dean Martineau]

I'm in a position to advise somebody about an fm transmitter to send the
computer audio signal throughout the house.  What is the current wisdom?  I
have a card from a British company whose name I can't remember, and it is
great.  I recall that they now produce something more polished, and probably
more expensive.  Please remind me of their name.  I have also gathered that
the CCrane unit doesn't work for most people.  

Thanks.

Dean

About Auto Sizer?

[tickpub]

Hi all and thanks for your help on my sound card woes, and it is amazing
to see how much everyone knows out there.
So, I want to know a little about some of these smaller free programs
like Auto Sizer and a thing called Macro Manager that allows you to use
the Windows keywith set keys to create macros to get here and there and
do scertain things.
Do any of these programs interfere with Jaws or cause slow downs or have
hidden agendas?
I would like the auto sizer but do not want any more woes to effect my
comn or work.
Got any suggestions on what smaller programs might assist but not cause
troubles?
Thank you,
MMM

Curtis, wow, those were the exact instructions I needed. Now got back all
my sounds and I'm a happy man again.
But, I have removed the MJ device and am not sure if I shold allow it any
nmore of my worries?
Does it do this reset each time you plug it in?
Once I plug it in and start useing it, do I have to reset this setting
only once?

I am so busy that I can't spend time trying to fix things I know little
about, so what do you think on going forward useing the MJ?
Does it have any more tricks under its buttons?

Re: Speakers

[Valiant8086 (on laptop)]

Hi.
I believe I'm understanding that you have two jacks for 2.1 speakers? truth 
be known, there should only be one jack necessary. I believe that if you 
have to use two jacks like that with that setup, probably your issue is 
getting your sound card to realize that the left channel is plugged into one 
jack on the sound card and the right is in another. Let us know if that 
helps any.

Re: Speakers

[DJ DOCTOR P]

Hello Jouie,
This sounds like a problem in one of your output devices in your amplifier.
If you are getting no sound from that channel, then your output chip and or 
transistor maybe burned out.
A stereo repair shop could fix it for you.
And or, you could replace the speakers with a new pare and or set of 
speakers.
My best Regards.
  John.

Re: Why does Winamp reset volume on stream drop?

OK, which one?  Surely not DSP, since I have none selected.  Surely
not input, for the same reason.  I looked at the DirectSound output
plug-in, which is the one I normally use, and found a multi-page
dialog which has no setting even remotely close.

[Jouie]

Hi. I'm not sure if I can explain my problem clearly. Here it is.

 

I have 2.1 speakers on my PC. Now, the left side isn't functioning. I've
tried a little investigation/experiment hoping to fix this, but got no
success. I've checked all the settings I know with its driver/software
configuration, and  found it normal I mean, all the settings  I put are
still there such as the left and right volume all set to 50. Now I went to
hardware thing. I observed all  connections are doing fine but not sure if
one of them really is. The left speaker as the suspect, is put on the right
socket I don't know how to call it, it is where the right speaker is
connected, the sound was coming out on the left speaker, so I concluded that
the left speaker is ok. But when I put the right speaker on the left socket,
no sound! Does this mean that the problem is not really on the speaker but
on the settings? Or on the wires? Jacks? I am not a sound expert. Can you
help me on this? Anyway, sighted people also use this computer so I'm
guessing their  games' music, music from the web pages can also be a factor?

 

Thank you,

Jouie
