I see Hope has a volume control. Does this alter the volume 
independently from the overall system volume control? Can I control the 
volume of my station in Hope without changing my JAWS or system volume?

Re: lost my windows sounds

[Christopher Chaltain]

So when you go into Sounds, you're double checking that you've got 
sounds set up for Windows startup and shutdown, right? If you make any 
changes, you're saving them and making sure the updated or new sound 
scheme is the one that's active, right? I assume so, so this is pretty 
strange.

Re: Accessable Hard Drive for Hi Fi

[Christopher Chaltain]

You will free up space by deleting programs you aren't using, but 
depending on the programs, it probably won't be very much. How much data 
are you talking about transferring? Are any other partitions besides C 
listed? there may be a recovery partition that you could steal, if you 
don't care about ever recovering the machine or if you already have 
recovery CD's burned. BTW, what OS is running on this machine?


When you ask about additional memory, are you talking about RAM or hard 
drive space? How much RAM is there now? Prices on memory and hard drives 
only come down, so finding hardware for older systems can end up costing 
you enough to make it worth buying a real cheap low end system. Since 
it's a laptop, you'd have to replace the drive that's there, which would 
mean a lot of work reinstalling Windows onto the new hard drive, 
assuming you have a license and the install media for Windows. Depending 
on how much RAM you have and how much the laptop will support, you may 
be able to add more, but this probably won't buy you anything when it 
comes to storing media files on the hard drive. Something like 
Crucial.com at http://www.crucial.com/ can take you through the RAM 
upgrade process.


You could use an external drive, but I think you'd find the speed 
frustrating.

I can think of a few options. One would be to use an FM transmitter. You
could attach an FM transmitter to your PC and then broadcast the music
from your PC and pick it up on your stereo, assuming you have a FM
receiver as part of your stereo. I don't have one myself, but I'm sure
others can chime in with more details, opinions and information.

You can also use a few different technologies to broadcast music from
your PC over wifi or bluetooth to a receiver that you could then attach
to your stereo. Apple TV and Airport Express would be two such examples,
and others can speak to them with much greater detail than I can.

A third option is to go with an accessible portable media player with
enough storage and then attaching it to your stereo system. Even if your
stereo system doesn't have a lot of connectors, you should be able to
find connectors that run from your MP3 player into the auxiliary  input
of your stereo receiver. Note that you'd still have to have this level
of connection if you were using a wifi or bluetooth receiver. You could
avoid this with the FM transmitter though. This is the route I went. Not
because it was superior to any of the other methods, but rather it just
fit my needs.

With this method, I have a portable MP3 player with most of my music. I
can use this when traveling, exercising, sitting in the waiting room or
whatever. I can also attach it to the stereo in my living room, the
powered external speakers in my bedroom or the audio input jack of my
wife's car. For MP3 players, you have a few different options. You can
go with an off the shelf MP3 player that will run Rockbox. This would be
the cheapest route. You could go with an iPod. Finally, you could go
with an MP3 player tailored specifically for the blind, such as the
Booksense. Each have their relative strenghts.

That's my $0.02.

Well here's another, I don't have it working yet but I'm learning how.  
Apparently the Apple TV is supposed to be able to access music through your 
network from a hard drive so that's the line I'll be following.

You can also use a few different technologies to broadcast music from 
your PC over wifi or bluetooth to a receiver that you could then attach 
to your stereo. Apple TV and Airport Express would be two such examples, 
and others can speak to them with much greater detail than I can.

A third option is to go with an accessible portable media player with 
enough storage and then attaching it to your stereo system. Even if your 
stereo system doesn't have a lot of connectors, you should be able to 
find connectors that run from your MP3 player into the auxiliary  input 
of your stereo receiver. Note that you'd still have to have this level 
of connection if you were using a wifi or bluetooth receiver. You could 
avoid this with the FM transmitter though. This is the route I went. Not 
because it was superior to any of the other methods, but rather it just 
fit my needs.

With this method, I have a portable MP3 player with most of my music. I 
can use this when traveling, exercising, sitting in the waiting room or 
whatever. I can also attach it to the stereo in my living room, the 
powered external speakers in my bedroom or the audio input jack of my 
wife's car. For MP3 players, you have a few different options. You can 
go with an off the shelf MP3 player that will run Rockbox. This would be 
the cheapest route. You could go with an iPod. Finally, you could go 
with an MP3 player tailored specifically for the blind, such as the 
Booksense. Each have their relative strenghts.

That's my $0.02.

Re: Hope for Pandora

[Ann]

I am using hope right now, and it works wonderfully with JFW. You can
create your own stations, pause/play, rate songs, skip, etc.

I was shocked that there was no trial period, but the $10 was well worth it.

Metadata Tagger?

[Dana S. Leslie]

I have several thousand audio files, most in AACPlus, M4A, or MP3 format, 
but also many in FLAC and other formats. I am looking for a single program 
that will scan my entire directory of audio files (and all its subfiles), 
and fill in, or correct, all the metadata, regardless of the file format. 
Recommendations, please.

Re: suggestion for cd copying program needed.

[Donald L. Roberts]

Vinny, There is a wonderful program, actually two that I can think of, 
which will do what you want, especially if you are using XP rather than 
Windows 7.  Each of these programs is free.  One is called burnaware, 
and the other is called express burn.  I remember that you use 
Window-Eyes as do I.  I prefer the Burnaware program, but you need to 
use the mouse in order to use all of the program's features.  So if you 
do not want to use the mouse, then by all means, get the Express Burn 
program.


If you cannot locate whichever you want, just let me know, and I will 
email either or both to you.


Hope your piano tuning is going well.

Cordially,

Don Roberts

Hi,
I am looking for a simple cd copying program which will copy any kind 
of audio or data disk from one drive to  another.  I had an old 
version of nero, and eraced it when someone told me the newer version 
was better.  Now the only programs I have will not copy a disk of mp3 
files to another disk directly.
I don't mind paying for a program as long as it isaccessible, easy, 
and does what I need.

Thanks.

Re: Hope for Pandora

[James Scholes]

The author of Hope, i.e. Christopher Toth, writes Qwitter Client, a 
hugely successful and widely used Twitter client that interfaces with 
your screen reader.  Not sure if you're a Twitter user yourself, but if 
you are, you have undoubtedly heard of Qwitter.  If not, visit:

http://www.qwitter-client.net
to check out the Qwitter Client website.  I can say with 100% certainty 
that this software works as claimed.  HTH.
