loading books into voice dream
Hi all Will be using voice dream for mainly reading audio books which as you will all know are large sometimes. Im finding it difficult to find information on how to actually import books into the program. It seems that you can do it via dropbox but then you must first upload the books to dropbox which is not the problem. But then you must download the books on your phone using the very expensive phone data. This will not work for me. I believe that you can actually import books from your computer onto the iphone but I cannot get this to work. Under apps you can find voice dream as an app into which you can import files. But under that there is something called library. I have tried adding files in there but they do not show up on the iphone. Perhaps someone can help. This will really be the ideal programme for me if it will only work!! Andre
Re: loading books into voice dream
You must connect your phone to the pc, then navigate to the apps section in ITunes on your phone. In other words you must make sure the apps radio button is selected, then tab til you get to the file shairing section where you can find voicedream on the list of apps wich allow for content to be dragged in via iTunes. Then you must press on the add button and brouze for a file on your pc and add it that way. After you done and you select add via ITunes from the app, you will then see the files and you can select them all or specific files and press done, and they should be imported. I'm not sure what is the idea behind the library file, I guess it keep track of content as you import them. But I'm not sure if that is exportable and importable. If you add an audio book or a daisy book you must zip them first.

Re: better equalizer for iphone
Hi! In my opinion the equalizer is quite good so i've never bothered to check some out. But you may try out vlc for iphone.

Re: Tapin radio scheduler.
Sometimes restarting your screen reader would solve the problem, otherwise, a way to work around this is to Try to use your read current line command after each movement of the up and down arrows. Sometimes both screen readers act weird not reading whatever item that gains focus but if you read the current line, you might get what you want. Also, if that doesn't work, after you change selection with your up and down arrows, tab away from that comboBox and shift tab back to it. It might solve your problem as well. Hope that helps!

How accessible is spotify?
Friends, i'm seriously thinking of taking a stab at Spotify. However, i'm curious as to the accessibility. Do I need scripts? what helpful hints could i use?
RE: How accessible is spotify?
Hello Randy, the short answer is that it isn't accessible. I have been trying to get the company to make it accessible, but even though the support department is very sympathetic, it is the developers who need a wake-up call. I do not see why an app for Window-Eyes could not be written to support it. I believe there are scripts for Jaws, but I don't know how up to date they are.

Ripping With CDEX: Is It No Longer Possible To Have Cdex Title Tracks?
Hello list: I decided to rerip a CD collection; my goal was to have it put the titles in for me, using Cdex. I have that Remote CDDB (or whatever that is) checked; still.it's giving me audio track 1 and so forth! I know that there has been an issue with Grassinite (sorry about wrong spelling) has this affected Cdex? Is it no longer possible to have Cdex put the titles of tracks in? If so, then I'll have to go back to using Windows Media.something I'm not real thrilled about as the current version isn't as cut and dried as Windows Media 11 was! Thanks for any info you can provide in advance! Tom Kaufman
Re: Ripping With CDEX: Is It No Longer Possible To Have Cdex Title Tracks?
I ripped a cd just a few weeks ago using CDEX so yes, it is quite definitely possible to have it grab the track titles from gracenote. speaking of which the proper spelling of that for future reference is g r a c e n o t e. I'm guessing the cd collection being ripped wasn't available, some older titles and some audio books aren't referenced in there. so amazon or google may be your best bet for track titles, and you can always use something like mp3 tag to tag your files if that's important to you.

CDEx doesn't use Gracenote by default, you have to install a different program called player which you can find on the gracenote site and this will allow you to export information from Gracenote to CDEx and, yes, this still works fine.

RE: How accessible is spotify?
Sunshine -- The JAWS scripts work with the Spotify software application. I tried them a year ago and for me they were not that useable on my machine. They seem to work for some Ok and others not so ok. The guy that developed the scripts was updating them as late as a month ago. He seems very willing to work with folks to get his scripts to work with JAWS and Spotify.At least that was the impression that I got from the list he has for those scripts. I have an IPod and the Spotify app works well on that device, so I never pursued the JAWS scripts any further.

I do not see why an app for Window-Eyes could not be written to support it. I believe there are scripts for Jaws, but I don't know how up to date they are. Hope this helps. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of randy tijerina Sent: 23 June 2014 21:33 To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Subject: How accessible is spotify?

Re: What program can I use to tag mp3 files?
You can use ITunes to tag files. - Original Message - From: Kevin Minor kmino...@outlook.com To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, June 23, 2014 5:55 PM Subject: What program can I use to tag mp3 files? Hi. I have some mp3 files that do not have any information for tagging. They're Track 1, and the like. I'm looking for something like the Winamp Auto tagger, which would tag these files. I've heard that Mp3 Tag will do this, but I think the files need to have some basic information in them to be tagged, and the files I have don't have anything in them. Thanks in advance for any info.

Re: What program can I use to tag mp3 files?
The best program for this is MP3 Tag Studio, made by Magnus Brading. It's very powerful, and there is a bit of a learning curve. Matthew

how accessible is this program and how much does it cost? On 6/23/2014 6:45 PM, Matthew Bullis wrote: The best program for this is MP3 Tag Studio, made by Magnus Brading. It's very powerful, and there is a bit of a learning curve. Matthew
I Must Be Doing Something Wrong Here!
Hello Again: More about ripping CDs: someone said that perhaps the CD I was trying to rip didn't have enough information (or something to that affect) to bear this out or disprove it, I decided to try another CD with CDEX (I'm getting the same results! In fact, I even got an error message; I also got no match so I obviously have done something wrong, but don't know what! Any ideas anyone? I keep hearing that CDEX _will_ give me the track titles; oh but you can't prove it by me! Tom Kaufman

Re: I Must Be Doing Something Wrong Here!
The first box under Remote CDDB, I have is for Freed not Gracenote In my case, it's been pulling down the track information without a problem. There are generally several options in that first entry under Remote CDDB. Try arrowing up and down to find something other than Gracenote. - Original Message - From: Tom Kaufman tomca...@comcast.net To: Pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, June 23, 2014 8:18 PM Subject: I Must Be Doing Something Wrong Here!

Levellator
Please could someone point me in the direction of an url from which I can download the Levellator program. I am not sure of the correct spelling. But this is the program which tends to level out dips and rises in the volume of a speech recording. Thanks. Don Roberts
RE: I Must Be Doing Something Wrong Here!
Okay...as I see it, Gracenote isn't having anything to do with CDEX's Remote CBBB (if I'm saying that right) now I'm not sure of what should be checked and unchecked! But it does sound like mine is set similar to how yours is! But will maybe tackle it again tomorrow; would like to continue using CDEX as Windows Media is just frustrating (and maybe it's simple) but it just isn't as simple like it used to be!

Maybe you're not connected to the internet? You could also try uninstalling and reinstalling CDEx.

RE: Ripping With CDEX: Is It No Longer Possible To Have Cdex Title Tracks?
...get a programme there that's called Player, download it, install it. This very blindfriendly program will let you grab the information from Gracenote, then you could either rip to wav or ogg or export the information in the player.ini from which cdex is able to read it so you can also rip into whatever formats cdex supports, i.e. mp3.

CDEx doesn't use Gracenote by default, you have to install a different program called player which you can find on the gracenote site and this will allow you to export information from Gracenote to CDEx and, yes, this still works fine. GraceNote is far better than FreeCDDB, but both still exist and Gracenote complements the former.

I ripped a cd just a few weeks ago using CDEX so yes, it is quite definitely possible to have it grab the track titles from gracenote. speaking of which the proper spelling of that for future reference is g r a c e n o t e. I'm guessing the cd collection being ripped wasn't available, some older titles and some audio books aren't referenced in there. so amazon or google may be your best bet for track titles, and you can always use something like mp3 tag to tag your files if that's important to you.

If so, then I'll have to go back to using Windows Media.something I'm not real thrilled about as the current version isn't as cut and dried as Windows Media 11 was!

RE: a cd problem
Could either be the discs (so you could try discs of another brand) or the burner which would mean that you'd have to replace it in order to burn CDs that will play on your sony device.
