RE: Another sound card question
No cause when you go into the Jaws cursor it only reads out volume volume volume, Balance, Balance balance; it doesn't even see any other controls out there. And the other speech programs say that the advanced is unavailable so no, not Jaws issue.

Fwd: New Window-Eyes Scripts for TeamTalk
From: J.J. Meddaugh j...@bestmidi.com I'm pleased to announce the release of scripts for the popular TeamTalk voice chat client. Written in colaberation with Stephen Clower, this script provides enhanced functionality for the TeamTalk application. Version 4.0 of TeamTalk is highly recommended, and the classic interface must be used for the scripts to function. We have not tested these with TeamTalk 3, though parts may work. Script features include: Obtain the name of the current channel, current topic, or the contents of the chat window using hotkeys. Additional key labels are added to make navigation simpler. The status of voice activation (on or off) is spoken when Control-Shift-V is pressed, or press a hotkey to hear the current status without toggling it. When pressing arrow keys in the position users window, the new position will be read automatically. If the Progressindicator script is loaded, the TeamTalk progress bar is automatically disabled, as it is generally not relevant. It's available on Script Central through the usual methods. If you're looking for a public TeamTalk server, sign up for a free account at http://www.zonebbs.com Please write me with any comments or suggestions. J.J.

Re: Another sound card question
Hello, Appologies if this has already been covered in this thread. Open the Windows Volume Control and press the alt keyto get to the options menu. Arrow down past the properties dialog and you'll hit the advanced controls checkbox. Make sure this is checked. Depending on the card you'll either get tone controls or the ability to boost your mic gain by 10db. It varies with the card and I have come across both. HTH.

It doesn't automatically try and charge any batteries, you either need to initiate this, or select the mode. 3. I had some reliability problems - but really didn't dig deeply to resolved it, with the supplied batteries, which it said were fully charged, but which were behaving oddly, so I mainly use regular AAA's in the device. 4. As with the DS-71, the batter level is announced when ever you power the machine off and on, so it is easy to be sure your batteries have sufficient juice for a recording session ahead.

How is this accomplished if you can't see the indicator? If I choose not to use the rechargable batteries and just plop some regular batteries in the recorder, will the recorder try to charge the nonrechargable batteries when I attach it to the PC to transfer files? Any light shed on this point would be much appreciated. Thanks.

RE: What is a good stereo mic for the DM-520
I decided to get the sound professionals binaural mics used on so many Blind Cool Tech podcasts. They are model SP-TFB-2. Together with a bag to keep the mics in the total was $81. With my $25 Pay Pal reward voucher it came down to around $56. Not a bad price.

In reading, I saw that when using the supplied rechargable batteries, one must connect the unit to a PC and hold the stop button until the indicator lets one know that the unit is charging. How is this accomplished if you can't see the indicator? If I choose not to use the rechargable batteries and just plop some regular batteries in the recorder, will the recorder try to charge the nonrechargable batteries when I attach it to the PC to transfer files? Any light shed on this point would be much appreciated. Thanks.

In reading, I saw that when using the supplied rechargable batteries, one must connect the unit to a PC and hold the stop button until the indicator lets one know that the unit is charging. How is this accomplished if you can't see the indicator? If I choose not to use the rechargable batteries and just plop some regular batteries in the recorder, will the recorder try to charge the nonrechargable batteries when I attach it to the PC to transfer files? Any light shed on this point would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Open the Windows Volume Control and press the alt keyto get to the options menu. Arrow down past the properties dialog and you'll hit the advanced controls checkbox. Make sure this is checked. Depending on the card you'll either get tone controls or the ability to boost your mic gain by 10db. It varies with the card and I have come across both. HTH.

Re: jaws announcing tracks in winamp
Hello, sorry for the late reply, but if play list window is open, it speaks the new track, but if it is not, then JAWS key+V (adjust JAWS options), script lets you switch this and many more things, but this applies to the latest scripts available on the site: Http://www.ultrauniverse.co.cc Thank you, Jitendra.

That's how I always got it to work for me. If there is a setting for this, I don't know where it is or what it is. My best regards.
