RE: Victor Reader Stream 2nd Generation

[Humberto Rodriguez]

I read quite a lot and while at home, in my opinion, nothing beats the NLS 
player, with its good sound, long-lasting battery, although the battery life, 
that begins at 40 hours, slowly degrades to about 16 with prolonged use.  The 
Iphone of course, is also excellent for listening to BARD books, but with so 
many other apps on the Iphone and now with unlimited data, plus texting and the 
telephone itself, I prefer to also take the Milestone 312 for the books.

The problem is that we are slowly  becoming pack horses, when you take into 
consideration that when travelling, I normally take my Iphone, Milestone, 
Olympus, ORCAM, laptop and CPap machine.

Everything could be improved of course.  The NLS players could solve the 
battery-life issue plus add Bluetooth capability;  the Milestone could add 
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and an antenna for the FM radio, for now it uses the wire of 
the headphones as antenna; the ORCAM should be able to save the text it scans, 
etc.

Regards,

Humberto

Cool. Yes I've red that the new 1 has a radio. I'm glad it's so much 
better then my 311. So you'd say it's worth it then? Cause I've never 
seen 1 and wasn't sure how much of an upgrade it is. As for the NLS 
player. I too have 1. It's cool looking. Don't use it as often though. 
What with the app being on my phone.

Look on Amazon for the Lonve players. Best buy sells some MP3 players with 
radios and recorders to in this price range, but unless you have some vision 
to read the menus they won't do you much good. They have a small speaker and 
a headphone jack that also serves as an external mic and auxiliary input.

The players have repeat and shuffle and one can create folders too, not as 
good as the Olympus machines but it can be done if you have sight. If you 
don't have sight you pay handsomely for the ability to have accessibility to 
outmoded technology for a small niche market.

If it wasn't for playing talking books I doubt most of us would be buying 
the Victor Streams or Bookports at all.

RE: Backing Up Audio Content

[Humberto Rodriguez]

I use Karen's Replicator, have done so for years and am very happy with it.  I 
am now on Windows 10 and Jaws 18, but the program has been around for a long 
time.

I have it set up to run everynight and do just what you say, replicate an

Subject: Backing Up Audio Content

Hi everyone.  I hope you're doing well.

I believe this topic is covered by the list but, if it's not, please
forgive me for the off-topic post.

I've got two external hard drives ... one is my main one, the other is
for backing everything up in case of loss/damage to the first one.
I've previously used SyncToy to do this and it's worked very well but
it's recently started failing to make deletions, regardless of which
folder I label as the left and which I label as the right and no
matter whether I run a synchronization (copying both ways) or echo
(left-to-right only).

So, does anyone please have any idea as to what the problem might be
and how it might be fixed?  In fact, does anyone even know if SyncToy
is still being used/maintained?  Alternatively, can anyone please
recommend a suitable alternative for a Windows 7 laptop running Jaws
14.0?

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Take care, Danny

RE: Does This Exist?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

You could try Dragon Natural Speaking, a program designed primarily to give the 
computer oral instructions or to dictate text, but you could play an audio file 
into it, probably with fair results.

Windows also now has a native Voice Recognition capability which could also 
possibly be of some service for that purpose.

Just a couple of hints.

Hi again all.

I would have sent this request to the Goldwave list, of which I am a member,
but have lost their email address.

But this enquiry is also very much a PC Audio question and I'm sure there
are members who could put me straight.

I recorded my local quire using my Zoom and ended up with a large WAV file.

I know how to chop it up into tracks using GW, but, and I need to be honest
here, I was rather drunk when I was recording the concert and sitting too
closely to my tripod, so this lovely recording is runed by the loud shouting
and clapping from a drunk and I want to cut, me, out!

I've got a copy of John Wilsons book concerning goldwave editing commands
and what it says is place a left bracket at the start of the offending piece
of recording and then a right bracket, at the end of it and then simply
press the delete key and the offensive material should be deleted.

Problem is when I do this I delete all of the file completely.


I cannot find the left or right bracket keys on my keyboard, but I have
found the left and right perin keys.  Are they not the same thing guys or am
I missing something?

Any advice with this one would be fantastic as I really did mess up much of
the recording with my enthusiasm and apart from my audio presence, the
recording turned out rather very nice.

Very best wishes.

Andy.

I don't think there is a way for the provider of the stream to tell whether or

Have no idea why Total Recorder would stop recording unless it is the

Listers,

Please search your memories and tell me if you have encountered this 
problem. But before I get to the problem, which might be obvious by this 
question. Is it possible for an administrator to be able to tell if you 
are recording a stream as apposed to simply listening to the stream on a 
program like Winamp, or any other player for that matter?

The problem I am having is even after setting a scheduled session for 
recording a particular program, TR will record for a few minutes, maybe 
20 or 30, and though the recording is continuing, at least it appears 
that way, the audio simply stops being input to the potential recorded 
product.

I have set the program up to reconnect to the stream in an unlimited 
fashion, but this simply does no good, I still rarely get a complete 
recording, at least not for the past few weeks.

This is a recent Phenomena. I have been making weekly recordings of this 
program for many years, and have never experienced anything quite like this.

If anybody could please give me any insight into just what might be 
taking place here, it would really be greatly appreciated. It really has 
me pulling what is left of my hair completely out!

Sure hope to hear from someone soon, this is maddening!

RE: a helping hand in starting up..or working on an internet radio station?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Randy:

To start up a radio station is not that difficult, most people use either
Shoutcast or Icecast as the software generating the stream.  You would
choose whether to contract a streaming service or do it yourself in your own
dedicated or PVS server.

To be a DJ with pre-recorded talk programs is the easiest and most flexible
way.  To make them live is much more demanding, has to be done at exact
times and the quality depends then not only of your server, but also of your
internet connection and transmission to the server.  Being an actual DJ,
that is presenting music programs, has the difficulty of having to pay
royalties, something that on Jan 1, 2016 became much more expensive,
prohibitive for amateur enthusiasts.

I have run an internet radio station for years that has become very
successful with presenters from 24 countries and listeners from 108
countries, but is all in Spanish, it is called http://radiogeneral.com and
soon, I will be starting another one totally in English and consisting
entirely of pre-recorded talk shows or Old Time Radio programs, that will be
called "Radio Broadcast Training Service of the US" whose domain will be
www.rbts.us and if you are interested  in doing a weekly pre-recorded talk
show, get in touch with me.  You would have to record it, edit the audio and
upload it to the server using FTP.

If anyone on the list is interested in doing a weekly pre-recorded talk show
in Spanish for Radio General, please contact me also.  It does not matter if
your Spanish isn't perfect, is accented or grammatically flawed, as long as
it is understandable and pleasing to the ear, it is fine.

Humberto

RE: imbed shoutcast audio on to a website?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

What I sent you before was a simplification of my code, without attributes to 
the audio tag.  If you want it to play automatically, you must include 
autostart, if you want a menu to play and stop, put controls also as an 
attribute to the audio label, if you want more controls you can use Java Script.

Here is my actual audio tag:



The important thing was in the src because Shoutcast does not recognize it as a 
stream unless it has a semicolon at the end of the URL.

Regards,

Humberto

RE: alternitave radio automation packages?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

As I said before, it has a learning curve, it takes a lot of reading, trial
and error; once you know it, as most everything, it isn't difficult.  You
have to be motivated to learn it, to avoid the use of Centova Cast.  It is
not for everyone, but it works fine for me.

I am leaving tomorrow to go to Madrid, Spain, where we are celebrating the
first worldwide convention of http://radiogeneral.com the station that  I
direct and am talking about, that runs on our PVS with Shoutcast 2.

RE: alternitave radio automation packages?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Shoutcast and Icecast are free, the VPS server would depend on what you
want, there are many choices.  You would get the server first, must be a VPS
or Dedicated server, so you can have root access and install either
Shoutcast or Icecast. Prices depend on whether it is Unix or Windows, speed,
size disk, etc.

RE: Audio podcasting

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Walter:

A podcast (a contraction of Ipod and broadcast) is an audio file that by
definition is provided as an RSS feed, so it may be accessed  by
podcatchers; there is one of those available free from the UK by Alistair
King, in the webbie.org.uk website.

To play a podcast online, from the server, you must either use Flash Player
or the new  label provided by HTML5; controls for the former abound,
some with fast-key controls,  controls for the latter can similarly be
provided, I think the AFB provides such a player free.

I would think it best that an organization such as you describe would use
its own domain and host its own podcast; it is something that although has a
learning curve, is not that hard.

I would also suggest that you make it available for download as well a to
listen online, in addition, of course, to the RSS feed that does just that.

Regards,

Humberto

Hi all.  I'll try and make this request as simple as possible but it is
about a subject I know nothing about so if I display some ignorance then I
ask your tolerance.

 

I'm involved with a government funded project that is based around helping
disabled people to understand the services that are on offer to help them
decide for themselves the level of independence they can handle and the
level of help they need and how to get the funding to accomplish this.  For
those in the UK this deals with the SDss service (Self Directed Support
Scotland).

 

The guy in charge would like to provide audio recordings of varying aspects
of this service but the problem is where to host them so they are accessible
to all.

 

He sent me a link to www.soundcloud.com to check it out for accessibility
and when I played the music tracks that were there I as a blind person could
not access the other play controls as the music drowned out the screen
reader.  These controls did not have any keyboard shortcuts so were
impossible to hear until the music ended.  This would be fine for those who
can see a screen but not for those who can't.

 

Does anybody know of a service, some host where these files can be posted
and can be accessed by all and that the play controls can be accessed by
keyboard commands?  Free services would be preferred but at this point
anything is of interest.  If anyone can help with a place to place these
audio podcasts then I'd be grateful for your help.  Walter.

RE: alternitave radio automation packages?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Hank:

No, I don't use Centova Cast either, I create my playlists directly in
Shoutcast 2.  I installed Shoutcast 2, but you could use Icecast 2 instead
if you prefer, actually there is a version of that called Icecast KH  that
allows you to stream in AACP and be reproduced by Flash Player.

What I did was to set up a VPS and installed Shoutcast, then wrote some PHP
scripts, but you do not actually need scripts, what you need is to read up
on the structer of the streamer software, be it Shoutcast or Icecast, upload
the audio files to the appropiate folder for each playlist and create the
calendar file that the server needs to run each playlist at a certain time,
with the backup of the list called "rotatio" to play when another playlist
is not playing, before the next scheduled one begins.

There is a learning curve, you have to read a lot about either Shoutcast or
Icecast, but once you master it, you can run your station from pre-recorded
files as I do.  You would still need Station Playlist Studio  if you or one
of your presenters wants to do a live program.

Bert

RE: ducking the bed in goldwave

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Ray:

If I understand you correctly, you want to paste voice over a background,
probably of music, and you want the volume of the underlying music to  be
lowered while the voice sounds over it, is that correct?

If so, please remember that both sounds have to be at the same bitrate and
sample rate.  Then open a file with the background music and another with
the voice; copy the voice to memory, move the starting marker on the music
to the point where you want the voice to start, then press Alt-C to go to
the Effects  menu and open Voice Over.  There you can try it if you like
the way it is set up by default, if not, you can lower or raise the volume
of the underlying music.

RE: Goldwave and its Equivalent to MP3Gain?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Auto Gain will equalize the volume throughout the file.  In the volume
control you may increase or decrease the volume in the entire file, Shift
Tab, adjust with PageUp or PageDown and press Enter on Preview until you
have the desired volume.

Subject: Goldwave and its Equivalent to MP3Gain?

  HI guys
I use MP3Gain to regulate volume, especially since I record and edit 
podcasts for an Internet online radio station, 
EIberoamérica/RadioGeneral; what's the Goldwave equivalent of using Mp3 
Gain, but only to make the volume higher? In Goldwave's Effects/Volume 
menu, I see two options: AutoGain and Maximize volume. What's the 
difference between these two, and which would be the equivalent to 
MP3Gain only to make the volume higher, leaving everything else the same 
in the original audio?
Thanks for any info.

RE: Recording Skype with Total Recorder

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello,

If your sound card has Stereo Mixor  What you hear it is very easy, just
record what goes through your sound card.

If not, I believe you need the Pro version of Total Recorder, then go to
Options and Recording source and parameters; there to Advanced and select
Mixing source and soundboard.

Alternatively, you need software such as Virtual Cable so as to be able to
record incoming and outgoing Skype sound. 

HIH,

Humberto

GoldWave works well for people without or with poor sight, I'm totally blind
and have been using it for must now be about eight years.

If you are using Jaws, there are some good scripts available, at present I
am still using V5.70, the last version to work with windowsXP the next
version is 64-bit and cannot work with XP.

Some people say scripts or setfiles are not required, well, the program can
be used, if carefully set up, out of the box but the scripts (for Jaws) make
it easier.

I installed the non-Commercial version of this software for Windows, I

I have to say that I'm impressed at just how accessible Express Talk is, 
there have been a few occasions where I've had to use to mouse pointer 
to get into the menu system but that's what the mouse pointer of 
Window-Eyes is for I guess smile.

The only problem I'm having thus far is getting sound from the party I'm 
calling or the party who has called me, I can actually dial out and I 
can hear all the tones, the other party can hear me which is interesting 
but I can't hear them, need to experiment further I guess.

It is a VOIP service that gives you a telephone number and free USA and Canada

RE: station program accessibility

[Humberto Rodriguez]

I don't know or have never used that software; I have used
http://stationplaylist.com that is mostly accessible and there exist Jaws
scripts for it that make it even more so.

It is automation software that can transmit live to a server, if that is
what you want to do.

As far as streaming servers themselves, Shoutcast and Icecast are the most
popular.  The most popular interface for both is Centova Cast, but it is not
very accessible at all.

Most of our programs are recorded, although not exclusively so, we have a
few live.  Since Centova Cast is not accessible and I am a totally blind
user of Jaws, I had to write my own interface to Shoutcast V2 in PHP, so I
am able to handle automation myself without problems.

It depends on what you want to do; if most of your programs are live,
probably Station Playlist Studio is your best choice.  Since I don't like to
have to depend on my DSL connection to the server and then the server to the
world, I prefer to keep my programs in the server and use AutoDj for almost
all of it.  My station is in Spanish, but you can listen by going to
http://radiogeneral.com to see how it sounds.  In a little over a
year-and-a-half, we have  achieved much, have been listened or visited from
113 different countries.  We have long passed the 12-hour-a-day programation
and are close to fill 24 hours a day with unique programation.

Hello everyone,

I'm in the process of getting a dj position on ACB Radio Interactive. During
the first half of the audition prep, I found out that my computer only has
one soundcard, and as a result, when I broadcast, my computer sounds and
screen reader sounds would end up being broadcasted too. The person training
me suggested that an external usb soundcard would solve this issue. Can any
of you recommend a good plug n play usb soundcard that would work with the
blue yeti usb mic, winamp 5.666, and windows 8.1? For anyone who has ever
used multiple soundcards in an audio project involving talking to someone on
skype, while broadcasting music over the web, do you know if external usb
soundcards have a setting, something like an audition channel of sorts, that
would allow you to take skype calls without broadcasting them online?  If
technology permits, I'm hoping to be able to play music over the air, and
take requests via skype off the air. I hope that makes at least a little
sense. I'm new to broadcasting online, so my question may sound a little
confusing to some people. Thanks in advance for any help.

RE: using tapin to record from other sites

The URL or web address of the website is not the URL of the stream.  For
example, our internet radio station (in Spanish) is located at
http://radiogeneral.com while the address of the stream is
http://radiogeneral.com:8000 and, more frequently than not, people who don't
have a streaming server of their own, but contract a streaming service, will
show an IP address, such as http://72.123.45.67:8122 and notice also that
the port number, which normally defaults to 8000,  could be any number other
than those already asigned to other tasks, normally any number over 1000 and
that the number may be followed by a slash and a mount point.

I don't use Firefox, but why don't you try using the contextual menu and
Save target as or words to that effect in Firefox?

this reminds me of a question I wanted to ask.
How can I get firefox to save an mp3 file. It keeps wanting to play it as a 
video file and puts a player on the screen.
so did crome.
I am stuck in xp on this machine and had to use a later brouzer than IE8 but

I want to be able to download and save a podcast to listen to later

 You need a Flash add-on installed in your browser, be it Internet Explorer
 or Firefox, to listen to a stream transmitted from an online Flash Player.
 I use it in order to start streaming automatically as soon as the page
 loads.  I can get away with it because I use low volume and provide a 
 button
 to stop, others to pause or lower or increase volume.

RE: Audio players for listening to internet streams

Well, the Adobe Flash, MaPlEr and ShoutOff are all in English, while
http://radiogeneral.com transmits 24/7 in Spanish, so I imagine it is to the
radio station you are referring to when you proclaim your lack of knowledge
of the Spanish language.

No, RadioGeneral.com is an international  project of Spanish-speaking mostly
blind people of some 25 countries, who present over 100 programs weekly to
thousands of listeners of so far, 104 different countries.  It is something
I started about a year ago and has grown rapidly.

I have, actually have had for a while, plans for a similar online radio
station in English, but have not yet started it due to lack of volunteers
willing to dedicate long hours of altruistic labor for the pure pleasure of
doing radio.  I do not pay royalty fees, nor emit music programs unless we
have the permission of the composer and performer or just the performer, if
public domain. Almost all our programs are unique, programs where people
want to share their passion or expertise, or come from OTR.

Hello Brian:

I mostly listen to my station http://radiogeneral.com from Internet Explorer
using the Flsh add-on, but there are many programs from which you may open a
radio stream, including Windows Media.

I have used MaPlEr for years, because it is truly accessible, but most of
all because you may load a playlist, for instance all the files in a folder,
then navigate in them extremely easy, going from file to file with
down-arrow and up-arrow and advancing and retrocedeing within a file with
just right or left arrow, or in larger increments using Control or Shift
simultaneously.

Finally, you can go to http://stesoft.com and try ShoutOff.

Best,

Humberto

RE: Balabolka

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Sunshine:

Try doing this:

When it asks you the file name to save, give it a full path, for example: 

C:\filename.mp3

Or better yet, create a folder inside c:\ for the files, for example:

C:\tts 

And then when saving a file, type:

C:\tts\filename.mp3 

That is what I do and it works fine.  Of course, you must have previously
selected to save in MP3, the bit rate and sampling.

Regards,

Humberto

text and it worked again, but then for some reason something else did not
work when you tried to convert text to MP3.

There are always many possibilities for something to throw a wrench into the
works when you are dealing with computers.  You must be patient and
eliminate possibilities one by one.  If you are able to convert small files
to MP3 but not larger ones, try using a lower bit rate. Keep in mind that
bit and sampler rates go together, for example, you cannot save something at
56K bit and 44100 sampler rates.

Above all, if we are to try to help you, you must take care of being very
explicit when asking questions, about the detailed steps you have taken, as
well as the result and error messages.

Best,

Humberto

RE: re text to mp3

[Humberto Rodriguez]

There is nothing strange about that, Lame is free to the private user, but
it cannot be distributed with free audio software, only the ones you pay for
include it.

I keep a copy of Lame always available for these cases, if you do not have
it, just look for it in Google, it is free to download and use.  When you
convert text to MP3 with this or any other free software, it will ask you
for the location of Lame unless, as Sunshine pointed out, you previously
copy the files to its folder.

Sunshine is also right about its speed, it is slower than for instance,
Balabolka, but I don't think that is a major concern, accuracy is much more
important and time will tell how accurate it is.

Hmmm, the difference in size is considerable and puzzling.  It would be nice

will be able to download it free, then either copy the .exe and .dll to the
program's folder or simply try to convert some text to MP3 and it will ask
you for the location of Lame.

Hi umberto, and all who tried to help. when i tried this programme

coppied a file in to mp3, if i do another one, will it automatically 
go to the folder i used before for the input file, and will it 
automatically use the output folder. or, will i have to specify the 
input and output folders each time. brian.

RE: re text to mp3

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Yes, you can indeed use all the SAPI voices installed in your computer, I
tried it with a Loquendo voice and an ATT voice.

The Lame folder you download from the internet, uncompress  and save to your
hard drive; the first time you try to convert text to MP3, the program will
ask you for its location; you enter the full path to lame.exe and that's
all, the program will do the rest.  Alternatively, you may copy the lame.exe
and lamenc.dll to the folder where the program resides.

can use the installed voices you have on your computer that are SAPI. 
Usually you will have to install and then point the two files lame and

 Yes, you can indeed use all the SAPI voices installed in your computer, I
 tried it with a Loquendo voice and an ATT voice.

 The Lame folder you download from the internet, uncompress  and save to
your
 hard drive; the first time you try to convert text to MP3, the program
will
 ask you for its location; you enter the full path to lame.exe and that's
 all, the program will do the rest.  Alternatively, you may copy the
lame.exe
 and lamenc.dll to the folder where the program resides.

 Hi
 I would wait. Will tell you more in the next few days unless Humberto
helps
 you. I do not know which voices they have but they use standard SAPI. When
I

 went to their website a pleasant Brithis female vocie spoke. Most likely
you

 can use the installed voices you have on your computer that are SAPI.
 Usually you will have to install and then point the two files lame and
 lameenc.dll to your C:\program files\Specsoft\ folder

Hello all.
I'm sorry if this has been discussed loads of times before, I'm new to
the list and unsure how to search passed messages.

I am totaly blind and am looking for an mp3 player. here are a few points.
i am using a sony nwz model at the moment, this is fine but it's only
16 gb. I have about 3 tb of music and collect records, so this is
getting to be not nearly enough even for day to day use, especially if
i go on holidays.
I don't care if it talks or not, in a lot of ways i'd rather it didn't.
I know that you can get big takling ipods, but I don't think I like
those too much.
The most important thing for me is that on my sony I can use the up
and down to go back and forth by album and left and right by track. I
love this feature about it, but I would like something with simple
menues so that if I so wish I can put it on shuffle for a while.

Do you folks have any suggestions to check out?
sorry for the long post!
Rob.

RE: first post: best mp3 player for a totaly blind user

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Yes, I do have a Milestone 312, what I like best is its size, very small,
but yet with good sound and also that it plays US Library of Congress NLS
BARD books.  It has a 15-hour battery, 1 GB internal memory and it takes an
SD card of up to 32 GB. Pretty good recording and text-to-speech
capabilities.  It has no wi-fi and thus no internet radio, but it has AM-FM
radio.

Hey Listers,

I just wanted to take time to say thanks to a kind person on this
list by the name of Humberto who told me about SONGR. If you want a
good and reliable converter of files from Youtube, then this is
definitely the ticket. I might have been a little disappointed with a
small few of the downloads from Youtube over the past week, but not in 
SONGR.

I became genuinely interested in Youtube conversions around the 50th
year of the Kennedy assassination because some of the programs
available were quite long, and I could find no way to mark them up
for later listening, making it necessary to relisten to ground I had
already covered. I put out an appeal for some help with the problem,
and Humberto suggested SONGR. It took me a month or so to finally get
around to putting it to the test, but I'm really glad I did. For me
at least, this program has lots of potential.

So, thank God for the list, Humberto, and SONGR.

OK, this may sound a bit over the top, but it isn't often I find an
application as useful as this one.

Thanks for graciously putting up with my gushing g,

RE: Thank God for SONGR

Hi Larry:

Way too much praise for just telling you about SONGR, though the program is
truly excellent.  It is my pleasure to help other blind people and as a
matter of fact, though I am a blind veteran myself, the VA in Northern
Florida contracts me to teach other blind beterans to use adaptive
technology,  a very rewarding activity.

SONGR is not only a great tool for downloading from Youtube, but you can use
the search field to locate audio files in many other sights too. You could
for instance, search for John Kennedy or JFK and I am sure you will find
many audio files by and about him as well.

Hi List,

I hope someone can help me. In school my students have to use windows media
player. I read in the menu that the short cut to rewinding or moving
backward in a track is supposed tob e control shift b. But in the menu it
keeps telling me that it is not available and the key stroke ctrl+shift+b
doesn't work either. What do I have to do to make it work? The fast forward
ctrl+shift+f works fine.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello Tim:

To my knowledge, in the absence of Stereo Mix or similar in your sound card,
you cannot record Skype conversations with Gold Wave; you can however, do it
using the Pro version of Total Recorder.

I use Total Recorder too Larry, mainly to record from Skype, and although I
have the Pro version and know it can edit too, I was already using Gold Wave
to edit before I bought Total Recorder and as you know, we always tend to
stick to the familiar, especially since, doing programming, running my

RE: Station Playlist, was, Looking for Info on meeting Accessible Internet Broadcasting Needs

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Larry:

SPL works on hourly playlists which you may create by hand or whose
automation you may achieve using another software they offer called Creator.
You can include spots, time whether, etc and you can use quick keys to
insert short messages, such as station or program identification, etc.

You could talk over whatever is playing by merely pressing a key.  If you do
your program live to a few stations, you can encode the signal and stream it
to the servers  simultaneously, while at the same time, you record what you
are transmitting.

If you merely want to record your program and edit the audio, adding to it
everything else you need, it is an overkill.  In that case you could record
with any number of programs, like Total Recorder, Soundforge, Gold Wave,
Audacity, or digital recorders, later edit it with another large number of
programs, such as Total Recorder, Soundforge, Gold Wave or Audacity, and
finally, upload it to as many stations you want, using FTP or SFTP.

Hi there. As was kindly suggested earlier in this thread, I have taken  a
look at Station Playlist and it looks like an amazing automation package, at
least according to the testimonials posted on their website. I didn't see a
lot of software description by the developers themselves, but maybe I was
looking in the wrong place. 

The information that I could find on Station Playlist lead to the following
concern. Since I will be recording a show and delivering it to subscribing
Internet stations in a yet to be determined format, how would station
playlist benefit me. I'm sure it would, as I've seen it mentioned here
before. But thus far I've been unable to discover how it can play a role in
my project, as I will be marketing a show rather than launching  an Internet
station.. 

Undoubtedly  I'm  missing something. So feel free to set me straight. Any
thoughts are welcomed and appreciated.

 Do you want to do your syndicated program live, or record it

 e-mail list for broadcast engineers and I can ask which file
 format is preferred if you want to record your program and
 send the file to them.
 
 I think most stations have an FTP site that programs can be
 sent to, then the station just programs the file into their
 automation system.
 
 Many blind people use StationPlaylist to broadcast over the
 Internet. Years ago there was a Main Menu program on ACBRadio
 explaining how to use Winamp for the same purpose.
 
 Stations don't usually like live programming sent to them
 over the public Internet. The other methods, ISDN or

If you are going to do it live to a few radio stations, I suggest using
Station Playlist Studio; if you are going to prerecord programs, I suggest
using Gold Wave; both are very accessible with JAWS.  After recording and
editing them, you would normally use an FTP, or mos likely an SFTP program
to upload it to each station; for that I suggest Win SCP.

If you want them to add a station to their database, so that anyone
searching for it can find it easily, first go to the File menu  Open URL
and enter the URL of the stream; you'll note that if you have it in the
clipboard, it will be filled-in automatically; once it is playing, go to the
Help menu and press Enter on the choice to add a station; it'll ask you for
certain information, such as country and state, URL of webpage, etc., but
it'll already have the stream info, you just need to select what is

RE: PHP and Shoutcast

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello John:

Just as another John already answered you, a DSL connection is not enough to
broadcast from home to many listeners.  I have 768 kb upload speed and is
not enough.  Similarly, many services that offer streaming overload their
systems with the result of periodic fading of the signal at peak hours, so
you must either contract a reputable streaming service or set up your own in
a VPS or dedicated server.

As far as software, the two major ones are Shoutcast and Icecast, they are
both free; to manage the streaming server, unless you write your own
software, there are likewise two major options: Centova Cast and WHMSonic,
neither one is free.

As far as tutorials, you may find some at www.centova.com and
www.shoutcast.com but the best I found is at www.mushroomfm.com.  However,
there is a lot to learn, you will need to go to Google and do some research
as problems present themselves.

I am using Shoutcast 2 in my VPS and trying to script my way to handle it
without Centova or WHMSonic, a complex task for which I have found little
help.  My previous message to this list went unanswered and although I have
looked extensively in forums, still have some difficulties.

iseluated. So I don't have any sighted people to help me out with cable 
connections and stuff like that.

Many thanks, any responses really appreciated.

RE: Winamp?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

It is not free, but nearly so, costs only about $10 when buying through
Paypal; it is called MaPlEr and you can find it at www.mar-dy.com where
Marco and Andy, two German blind developers have it, as well as a game
called Mississippi.

It is great not only to play files of many formats, but also to create and
manage playlists, rip tracks and convert audio, listen to radio streams and
record them, many, many more features, all accesible, at least with Jaws.

Subject: Winamp?

I have two Windows 7 sixty four bit computers and I'm thinking about putting

Winamp on them because for playing CD's etc. it is a bit easier to manage 
than iTunes 11 and Windows Media Player with Jaws 14 and Magic 12. However, 
I thought before I loaded it I would ask if anyone knows of a free yet 
accessible Winamp type program that is better than Winamp for Windows 7 64 
bit machines. Let me make myself clear, I am asking for a free and 
accessible music player for the computer similar to Winamp not a CRACK or a 
hardware  MP3 player such as I have on my iPhone.
TIA

It is very easy to use.

DVD's and save video from many video sites to whatever format you wish.

 Subject: Looking For New Youtube to MP3 Converter

 Greetings,



 Until very recently I was using youtube-mp3.org with very good success 
 until
 the owners of the web page stoppd the Youtube to MP3 video conversion
 process under a threat of a lawsuit from Google. I have tried other online
 converters, but they seem to crash IE9. The Youtube video to audio
 converters I have tried without success include listentoyoutube.com, and
 videotomp3.com. I am wondering if anyone has discovered a Youtube to audio
 converter that is equal or near equal to Youtube-mp3.org.



 I discovered while researching what was behind this sudden and strange
 development I was curious as to why Google is playing waterboy for ASCAP.
 However, I have subsequently concluded that Google has its own turf to
 protect, and it is the ring tone revenues they are likely receiving from 
 the
 Android apps markets. IN any event, I would appreciate any suggestions.

 TIA

 Rob Jayhawk Tabor

RE: Keystroke to jump back to the first song in a song list being played in Windows Media Player12

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Prateek:

I cannot tell you the answer you want, because I do not use WMP for that,
but I can tell you that it is very easy to do, as well as to use the arrow
keys to go forward or backward fast and easily in a playlist of any length ,
as the one created when you play a folder from Windows Explorer, when you
use MaPlEr instead of WMP.

I use Win 7 Pro 64 bit and JFW 14.

Regards,

Humberto

Hello.
Using JFW 14, Win7, WMP12
I right click on a folder full of many mp3 songs and select 'play with WMP'
in for WMP to start all the songs in that folder one after the next. CTRL b
moves back one song at a time.
Is there any keystroke to jump back to the first song in the list after WMP
is say half way down playing my list? I want WMP12 to resume play again from
the beginning of the said song list without having to close WMP and restart
from scratch.

Thanks

RE: Can't stream

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Londa:

It is hard to figure out what the problem could be without playing with it
and I have never used the SPL encoder, I use Odcast or Edcast stand-alone.
The first thing that comes to mind is to verify that the encoder connects
and the second, that the bitrate at which you are transmitting does not
exceed that allowed by the server. I presume of course, that the encoder is
set up for Shoutcast, as you say that is the type of server you use, but you
need to also make sure you have activated the Lame encoder, if transmitting
MP3 files.

Regards,

Humberto

Subject: Can't stream

Hi All,

 

I am helping out with a Radio Reading service which has been plagued with
mahny problems. We are now trying to replace the main computer. For now,
this computer handles the automation and the streaming although we may
change that in the future. We're using Station Playlist Creator, Studio and
Streamer. We are also using the SPL encoder. It looks like the stream is
going through everything until it hits the Shoutcast server. When we bring
up the stream, we see that it's running, but we don't hear any sound. Can
anyone help? I know more details are probably needed, and I'll be happy to
provide them. also, we wanted to use barix boxes, but one of our partners
refuses to participate, so we can't go that route.  Thanks for any help you
can give.

Sorry about that, I went to check and it plays .m3u and .pls but no .asx.
How about Tapin Radio?  Is that the only stream offered?
