Determining Codec Level or Version in Easy CDDA Extractor
Up until this morning, I've been using version 10 of Easy CDDA Extractor. I recently used it to convert a batch of files from FLAC to APE format and discovered that, after conversion, the APE files had lost their time information records. This turned out to be a bug in the Monkey's Audio 3.99 version, which has been replaced/updated in the new Easy CDDA Extractor, but I don't know how to find out with what version it was replaced. The newest is supposedly 4.01. How do I find this out before converting another large batch of these files and finding their duration records also gone missing?

Re: Sound forge question
Hi, I have a Power Users Guide in print to Sound Forge 7 and 8 and I'm pretty sure that advanced batching and scripting options are available only in Sound Forge 8 and beyond. This would allow, surely, for complex tasks such as combining many smaller files into one large one. (Isn't there a way in the command line utilities within Windows to actually do this?) I throw these in as pointers, but will willingly defer to a guru on SF and Windows/DOS batch language. On the subject of accessing SF9 propperly, I believe JFW users have some good scripts curtasy of the Snowman. Surely only a mater of time before someone does the same for Window-Eyes 7 when its teathing troubles with scripting are sorted. Same might go for HAL 9 too.

RE: av reciver or stereo reciever
Yes, it can. I have a Xitle HiFi link that plugs into a usb port on the computer and then into the aux in on the Onkyo receiver. This bypasses the sound card so the sound is excellent. The receiver treats the input from the computer just as it would any other input device.

Re: Recording audio from a VCR
Mary, It is likely you have a ground loop between the computer and the VCR. Radio Shack sells a ground loop isolator, number, two seven zero dash zero five four for around fifteen dollars. It is cylinder shaped, maybe four inches long and an inch and a half in diameter. It has a stereo cable coming out of each end with male RCA connectors. An adaptor with female RCA connectors on one end and a mini plug on the other end is included. I've had great success using these.

Re: Problems creating an audio cd with Neero, a puzzler! continued:
Yes I sure did. The problem is either that nero doesn't think an audio cd can support this feature or that the burner doesn't support it or that the cdr blank may really have to be an audio blank for it to work. I have tried it on two different machines with the same version of nero, same blanks, but different burners. On both machines nero complained but with different messages. However the result was the same, letting nero do its recommended fix always resulted in reinserting the pauses. I am going to try trakc at once once again instead of disk at once and see what happens. On machine A, the warnning was some of the features are not supported in this write mode, nero can fix this but some audio properties may be lost.

Re: Problems creating an audio cd with Neero, a puzzler! continued:
How about a newer version of Nero? Maybe this one is just brain dead. Its up to 8 and you are using 6. on Wednesday 09/03/2008 Donald Breda([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote Yes I sure did. The problem is either that nero doesn't think an audio cd can support this feature or that the burner doesn't support it or that the cdr blank may really have to be an audio blank for it to work. I have tried it on two different machines with the same version of nero, same blanks, but different burners. On both machines nero complained but with different messages. However the result was the same, letting nero do its recommended fix always resulted in reinserting the pauses. I am going to try trakc at once once again instead of disk at once and see what happens. On machine A, the warnning was some of the features are not supported in this write mode, nero can fix this but some audio properties may be lost. If I clicked ok it reinserts the pauses no matter how I insert them whether in properties or by checking the no pause between tracks box.

My sincere apologies. My email program is sending out old messages unexpectedly. I never ment to flood the list like this. So much for beta software grin! Please accept my sincere apologies.

Don On Tue, 02 Sep 2008 07:28:16 -0400, Donald Breda wrote: Well this sounds like a real novice question and thats ok but believe me its not, or at least I don't think so. I did some audio editing in Goldwave cutting sections from large audio files and breaking them out to several small files. I made sure each cut was trimmed nicely removing any silence at ends of both files. I then fired up Nero 6 to create the audio cd. I encountered the following problems. Here was my goal first of all. You need this to understand the problem. I wanted an audio cd that played every track automaticly with no silence or gaps between tracks. I checked the no gaps between tracks or however Nero says it on the beginning screen. That didn't work. I then created another cd where I checked the same box but then went in to the advanced controls and checked remove silence at end of cda trakcs and even with both boxes checked it didn't work. If I played track 1 I manually had to advance to track 2 it just wouldn't play on its own unattended. What is going wrong? Is it a bug with my particular version of Nero? Am I missing something, thats entirely possible? I need to create an audio cd with tracks but where one track plays rapid fire right after another as if there were no tracks. Yes I could merge the files in to one file and burbn it that way but I really wanted the track marks. what am I doing wrong? I need this for voice over demos and thats the way they want them these days. Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance.

Station Playlist Studio question.
Hi all, I am trying out Station Playlist Studio. One question though, well, actually two: When I faid down music using the M key, and then speak into the microphone, the output I hear in my headphones is a few seconds behind. So, for instance if I say Hello, I hear that Hello about a second later, or it maybe a couple of seconds, I'm not sure. Also, how can I change the faid level on the microphone? So when I press the M key, can I change the settings for the faid that occurs? --Check out my radio! http://www.jls-radio.com -- James Scholes E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSN/Windows Live Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] AIM: JamesScholes000 Skype: james.scholes Website: http://www.jamesscholes.com Blog: http://www.jamesscholes.com/blog Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/jamesscholes Find me on Facebook!

Re: Recording audio from a VCR
If you're just doing audio, why not just have an audio lead connected from the Video recorder to the sound card, are we talking about recording audio from video cassettes here or are we using the recorder to record audio from TV broadcasts, depending on the situation there are other avenues and pieces of software you can use but the one I strongly suggest you look at here is Total Recorder (preferably the professional version).

RE: av reciver or stereo reciever
I got the Xitle from http://www.jr.com. I believe it was just under $50. It is strictly an output device, but at JR and other places, there is a Xitle device for around the same price that can be used to go the other way. I just plugged the Xitle HiFi link in and it did the splitting itself. It is important to have your speech synthesizer on )not necessarily talking) then plug the Xitle in and wait for the USB recognition tone and only then start your media player. I think that Jaws doesn't relinquish the internal sound card when the computer recognises the HiFi Link for some reason and it works well. Good luck!

Although this does loosely have to do with audio on the PC, your question would get much better and qualified answers on the Station Playlist support list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Re: Recording audio from a VCR
Right, well you'll need a lead say (by the sounds of things) a 3.5MM stereo minijack to RCA lead, most VCR'S have a RCA audio output (at least 1), the next thing you need to know is the recorder stereo or Mono? If stereo you need a 3.5MM stereo jack to 2 RCA female plugs, if mono then just 1 RCA female plug. This lead then goes from the audio input of the sound device of your laptop to the audio output of the VCR. Your laptop may have 1 or 2 (or none) audio inputs, if none then you'll need another sound device but perhaps for the sake of clarity, that can wait (if need be) for another post so let's assume your laptop has at least 1 input. you may need to adjust the gain of this input if its a Mic input, you'll need to turn the gain right down, if its a Line input then everything should be fine, run a few tests and see what happens, hope this helps.

Leadtek Winfast HDTV2000 TV Tuner card revisited
Hi everyone! I promised the list I'd write more on this device as I found out more about the many features available through the software as I continued to learn how to use the system so here's something else which I've discovered. With digital TV in Australia, viewers have access to an EPG (Electronic Programme guide), the Winfast system takes advantage of this EPG, you're supposed to be able to click on a programme of interest and the software automatically schedules this programme to be recorded at the appropriate time. Well I haven't worked out how to do that yet but what I have found out is that if you start a recording manually or schedule a recording to be made without specifying a file name for the recording, the Winfast software uses the EPG to formulate an appropriate filename. For example, let's look at Saturday's EPG in Melbourne Victoria, specifically Saturday afternoon and we see that ABC1 is broadcasting VFL football from 1 in the afternoon so if I manually started recording from that point or set the scheduler to start recording from that time or from any time during the duration of the VFL Football programme, without a specified filename, the Winfast software would automatically save the recorded content to a file with a given date and time plus the name of the programme as gathered from the EPg, the file name would look something like this, Video 2008-06-09 ABC VFL Football.mpg. Lots more to discover yet smile but unfortunately my playtime is severely restricted as I'm looking after a sick Mother and I'm spending a lot of time away from home, commuting to Merimbula and back etc but I'll get there eventually smile. -- Dane Trethowan From Melton Victoria Australia mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] phone (+61 3) 9005 8589 Fax (+61 3) 9743 7954 Mobile/SMS (+61 418) 773 532 MSN [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype callto:grtdane12 ** Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
