Re: Ripping Settings
Personally, I prefer the constant bit rate. Certainly vbr is preferable to joint stereo in most cases but again, I have done many tests with a variety of music passages and several instruments and have not been happy with the results. So, while vbr does save a little space on your drive, disk space is so cheap these days that for the money it is not worth the sacrifice in quality. I am speaking of the CDEX ripper here and if there is a vbr option with other rippers, I have no comment there. For many, I suppose ripping options boils down to what you hear. I generally rip at 192 kbps but for some classical music if I know I'm going to be listening to the piece frequently have begun ripping at 224 kbps. - Original Message - From: Kevin Lloyd [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, January 04, 2008 12:47 PM Subject: Re: Ripping Settings Yes, I'd recommend using VBR to get the best results in the smallest file size.

Re: High Quality streams.
well now, on my machine, windows reports the bit rate as 320 and the sound was crisp and full--a much better sound than a 128 bit rate could provide. I have a very fast modem here--it is a modem designed to receive tv signals so do you have a high-speed modem--I think possibly you do. You did select the high speed setting did you? Could it have been that the station was streaming only at 128 kbps at that point. Apparently they were experiencing some streaming issues. I actually left the stream and came back later and insert-shift T reported 320 kbps on both occasions so it would be interesting to hear what others are hearing in terms of a bit rate. - Original Message - From: Jim Noseworthy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Sunday, September 23, 2007 4:08 AM Subject: Re: High Quality streams.

Re: windows media
Glad to hear that windows media is now fully accessible as I have been trying to sinc music tracks to a portable media device for which the windows explorer interface does not work so I am forced to use windows media. The only message I here is to drag items here and as a totally blind person, the here means nothing to me. Others have raised the same question on this list and as far as any posts I have read, noone has an answer for this dilemma for a blind person. Maybe though you have found a way around this issue and if so, I and no doubt many others on this list would like to know how to perform this action using strictly speech prompts.

Windows media player has error correction so be sure to set it if you're using this program to rip audio CD's. It will rip much more slowly when this is enabled but you will get excellent results. To set the error correction flag, go to tools, options and locate the audio tab. Press enter on the properties button for your CD/DVD drives and then check the checkboxes to set error correction on. The CD transport in your computer is key to getting good results. As mentioned, EAC will scan until it finds 2 close matches in extracted WAV forms but that doesn't mean that it's perfect as if your CD transport isn't great then you'll get some very close imperfect WAV files and it'll have just taken you longer to get there. I've found laptops have the best CD transports as they tend to have a raised middle onto which you can press the CD and have it held firmly. CD transports I've seen on desktops have been quite flimsy at times and the disc can slide about when spinning. This is a great way to generate lots of jitter, particularly on the latter tracks which are on the outside of the disc and so are therefore being rocked around a lot more than the inner tracks on a flimsy transport.

Re: CDex help please
It looks like your output path may be missing. While in CDEX, hit f-4 to open the configuration section. You will then need to control tab once to get to the CDDB tab. I believe the first item here is the path and file name where you want your ripped tracks to be stored. For instance, in my case, it is: f:\my music. The my music folder is where all my music is stored and f is the name of the drive where the folder is located. You likely know most of this but just trying to be thorough. There will likely need to be other configuration settings to be made and the keystroke f-1 provides quite a comprehensive help section--I know, it helped me a lot in setting up CDEX. - Original Message - From: Sarah [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 8:26 PM Subject: Re: CDex help please Well i just looked in my CDEX.ini file and my CD drive is indeed missing.

Re: CDex help please
By doing a control tab, you also get to your CD drives page. On this page do you have the drive selected from which you are ripping? If windows is not seeing the drive from which you are ripping, it could be because you have not selected that drive on the drives page or tab. If this does not work, maybe we can get together on Skype (if you have it) and go through your settings. - Original Message - From: Sarah [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, October 27, 2006 11:10 AM Subject: Re: CDex help please Ok.

Re: mp3 player that plays wma's
Smaller files would certainly be the appropriate solution and I have suggested this to the Vancouver Public Library and my local Fraser Valley Library but they say they only purchase distribution rights from Net Library and have no input as to the format and file structure they use. I find this difficult to believe and possibly if someone like the Canadian Institute for the Blind and similar agencies in the U.S. took up the challenge, well, then maybe we could get this issue resolved. Net Library is making it easy for themselves without proper regard for its patrons--well, that is my opinion anyway. Or, it might cost borrowing libraries more for the services if more effort went into compiling the books in the smaller file format. Technology is changing rapidly hence the engineering wizards might find a solution long before the bureaucratic barons of the various library systems are able to reach consensus. - Original Message - From: Rick Alfaro [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'PC audio discussion list.

- Original Message - From: Robert Hebert [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 17, 2006 5:01 PM Subject: Fw: Windows Media Player 11 and Accessing The Library. - Original Message - From: Robert Hebert [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, July 16, 2006 8:23 PM Subject: Windows Media Player 11 and Accessing The Library. I recently upgraded to Windows Media Player 11 and am finding the library tab very difficult to get to. I upgraded after purchasing a flash MP3 player which interfaces with WMP11. I mainly use Winamp for my music needs but transferring files to my flash player might be easier with WMP11. At any rate, in earlier versions of Windows Media Player, it was easy to find the library somewhere in the menu structure but not so with WMP11. I am eventually able to get to the library but it seems to be a hit and miss path so I must be doing something wrong. I do have Classic menus checked and Full mode, I believe it is--control 1. Now, this is another problem when I do control 1, the box seems to remain checked. I am aware that this is required for speech--just wondering why it won't come unchecked--even while in the menu structure where it says full mode checked I am not able to uncheck this box. Perhaps if I could chat with someone who uses this program, I could resolve these 2 issues--if in fact they are resolvable. I am using Jaws 7.0 and depend entirely on speech. Thanks in advance for any assistance. -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.

Re: Iriver T30 text or html manual please
Thanks, I realize the product is limited in many ways. Basically, I purchased it to listen to music and some books while travelling. I also download music to the T30 and play it through a stereo in another part of the house. The unit was not expensive--about half the original price so hopefully it will serve as a stopgap until an accessible unit with FM radio is produced. Thanks for taking time to reply.

Reduce Distortion
On Thu, 30 Mar 2006, Anders Holmberg wrote: HellO! I have a recording which i did yesterday which was a bit destorted. I know this doesn't sounds realistic to some of you but are there any way to reduce the distortion from such a recording? Anders, you may already are aware of a very simple solution and that is if playing back your track using Winamp, control tab to the equalizer window and reduce the output of your pre-amp with the tab key. Generally I keep this setting in the mid range--between -1.4 and + 1.4 or thereabouts. However, I have found that if there is distortion on a recording that often decreasing the pre-amp setting to a - 7 setting or even less will help lower the distortion. Of course, reducing distortion with a sound editor program is always the best solution if possible. ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.

Re: Media Player: Ripping/Burning
I have done a few burns using Windows Media--so far, all successfully thankfully. 1. I rip the songs I want from a CD using CDEX. IMPORTANT: F-8 rips in .wav format which is what you likely want for a CD. Once I have burned the CD, I delete the .wav file as it takes up mega space on the hard drive. 2. I move these songs to a designated folder (may not be necessary but I want to be sure of what I am burning). 3. I find my designated folder and open it with the enter key. I then select the songs in the folder with Control-A and these will be the songs for my burn list. 4. Press your applications key and arrow down to add to burn list. 6. Tab until you hear a burn command. Press enter here.(this is usually several tabs along). 7. Tab again and there is another tab that says something about burning or it might refer to the letter of the drive you are burning with. Press enter here. I have found that sometimes the burn starts immediately and other times the burn may not begin for 2 minutes or more. Just today it appeared that nothing was happening so I tried to eject the CD and got a message saying that a CD could not be ejected while Windows was burning. I pressed enter on the burn command that said something about my E drive and eventually, the burn began. I am not sure if there is something visually showing on screen or whether the program is just quirky. 8. There is another box a tab or 2 along after the burn commands where you can review your burning speed. Sorry, don't remember what it is called but it is quite obvious it is the settings tab--in fact, that may be what it is called. Press alt-enter on this tab to open its properties and the second tab brings you to the combo box for burning speeds. When my last burn today failed to work I lowered the burn speed to 32 X and waited about 3 minutes and was just about to give up when the drive began moving and once the process finished--about another 3 minutes, I had a perfect cd copy with all the songs, no skips and yes, it even played on a regular CD player. I apologize if I have left out any specifics--I usually just do this stuff till it works and I must say that I often forget what it was that worked and what it was that didn't! I'm sure that with sight this stuff is a breeze but with speech it is usually hit and guess--at least for the first few times.- Original Message - From: Bobcat [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: sirius radio
Not trying to be too picky or maybe I have missed earlier comments but as you know but maybe haven't thought about is that the direction your antenna is positioned depends on the location of the satellite from which the Serious transmission is received. So, on the West Coast of North America where I am, I would likely have to have my antenna in a window facing south and possibly south east as I Live in Vancouver Canada. If I lived in Southern California or Northern Mexico, I would likely have to have the antenna in an east or north-east facing window. And of course, all this is assuming that their satellite is parked somewhere over the south central United States as I understand is where the TV satellites are parked.

They must have several satellites then as the arc of any one antenna's reception ability would be limited to the point where the satellite fell below the viewing horizon.

Re: volume and hiss issues
There are many applications that will lower your volume from time to time for no obvious reason.

Re: Winamp equaliser
Alt G opens the graphical equalizer window. and this window must be open before you can perform the following functions. A). The letter n toggles the equalizer on and off. B). Your equalizer consists of ten bands, generally, five per each left and right channel. C). The numbers 1 through 0 on the number row keys increase the output of that particular band while the letters q through p decrease the level of that particular band. D) there is also a pre-amp function and the grave key (I believe increases) the output of the pre-amp while the tab key lowers the output of the pre-amp. Too much output will create distortion and too little output will have the same effect as lowering your volume to zero. A setting of about plus or minus 4 generally works best for the pre-amp. A setting other than this range would likely have specialized or more professional functionality but mid range setting is what I use. - Original Message - From: Marty Rimpau [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: Ipod shuffle and winamp plug-in
Control tab to the windows library. Tab once here and you will hear library button press spacebar. (I'm assuming you're using Jaws here since you have not said differently). Now, arrow down until you hear add media and press enter. From here you need to brows to the place where you store your music files and highlight that folder. Press enter and the process of adding your song titles to your Winamp library should begin. Note, the music directory itself is not transferred, simply a listing of the titles in your music folder is added to the library so adding media to library is not really a space issue. A few people have thought this was the case but it is definitely not. This process can take from a few seconds up to a half hour or more depending on how many files you have in your music folder and the operating speed of your system.

Re: Annoying CDex problems
I believe the changes in CDEX 1.6 were quite minor but I can't recall exactly what they were. Yes it works with Jaws 5.0. As per scripts, again I can't say for sure that there are or not but basically CDEX works fine with Jaws 5.0 so I would have to check the Jaws help file and look under the programs with Jaws section. Actually, I just now opened CDEX and brought up the Jaws configuration manager and there were no CDEX scripts there. I am using Jaws version 7.035. CDEX 1.6 is a betga version.

In the end, the easiest thing was to remove CDEX--add/remove--control panel and I also removed the CDEX directory--if there was still one remaining, I can't remember but at any rate I removed all traces of CDEX from my system and installed the version I am currently using--1.6.

Re: Annoying CDex problems
About 6 months ago I experienced a problem with CDEX 1.51. The problem seemed to be related to the data base and listing selections to be recorded etc. I was fortunate to get a few knowledgeable folks racking their brains re a solution--none was found. In the end, the easiest thing was to remove CDEX--add/remove--control panel and I also removed the CDEX directory--if there was still one remaining, I can't remember but at any rate I removed all traces of CDEX from my system and installed the version I am currently using--1.6. A complete reinstall took about 15 minutes and in my case fortunately completely resolved the problem I had been having. I wish I had simply done this in the first place. NOTE: Do those MP3 files play using any other format such as WMA or Real Audio--just to name 2 possibilities? If a reinstall doesn't work then obviously, it is time to call in the techie. - Original Message - From: Ann [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

I restarted my Windows XP Home computer. Now, each time I try and start the program, I get the message telling me that it has found a problem, and needs to close. I could post the entire error report here, but it seems to have an encyclopedia of information, with exception codes and other numbers. LOL! And, the saga continues. I thought it might be some kind of oddity with this version of CDex, so I installed the last stable version, which was I think 1.51. It seemed to be working fine until I checked my MP3 files, and found that they were completely silent. In both versions of CDex. I was using something called the native NT SCSI Library, and this worked with v1.60 until it somehow broke. Does anyone have any ideas as to what the heck is going on here?

Re: The Good Old Days (Was Mp3 players)
David, the time marker feature has been a very useful one for me. When I first began using net library their WMA files would not play in Winamp and placing a time marker using Real Audio or Windows Media Player was a rather more complicated and much less accurate task for a totally blind user. Therefore, I was very pleased when Winamp gave us the ability to play WMA files and thereby, co-incidentally, the ability to use your time marker facility in Winamp. I thank you for providing myself and others with these scripts. - Original Message - From: David Truong [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'PC audio discussion list. ' Pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, November 14, 2005 7:25 PM Subject: RE: The Good Old Days (Was Mp3 players) Hi There, The folllowing is from our Winamp scripts manual and describes the time marker features. The Winamp scripts include a feature that allows you to set, jump to and remove multiple audio bookmarks on your currently playing track from any of the Winamp Windows. You can also find out the elapsed, remaining and time length of the currently playing track. You can even export your time markers to Time Marker Set files (.tms files)and import time markers from .tms files into your Winamp time marker file file (winamp.tmf). Note: Winamp already has a bookmark feature which allows you to store favourite streams so you can go back to them later. To save confusion, the audio bookmarks are called time Markers. The idea of time markers is to allow you to set a time marker in a currently playing track and then be able to come back later and have the track play from the point where the time marker was set. This way you can close Winamp, play another track or even if you get caught up on the phone etc., you will know that you won't have to start the track from the beginning again. You can also set more than one time marker in a track. The keystrokes are as follows and they can genrally be used from anywhere in Winamp. List of 7 items (contains 1 nested list) . m: Set a Time Marker. Sets a time marker on the currently playing track. There must be a track playing for it to work, but it will warn you that no track is playing if you try to invoke it when no track is playing. If a track is playing and you activate the set time marker command, you will be presented with a dialogue box and focused on an edit field where you can label the time marker to be set. Simply type the desired label and press enter. If you leave this field blank and press Enter, the time marker will still be set but without a label. After the time marker is set, Jaws announces the number assigned to the time marker and the time stamp of the position in the currently loaded track as well as announcing the optional label you gave it. For example, if you gave the time marker the label chapter 3, and the positionin your file was 2 minutes and 30 seconds, you would hear Jaws announce Time Marker3 set at 2 minutes and 30 seconds, Chapter 3. Due to technical considerations, the ability to label time markers is not available when using JAWS versions prior to Version 3.7. Note: You cannot use m to set time markers from within dialogs such as the open file or jump to file dialogs. There, the m key merely types the letter m. To set a time marker, it is necessary to be in one of the Winamp windows such as the Playlist or Equaliser, etc. . Alt+Shift+m: Jump to Time Marker. This script does not require a file to be playing, but it must be able to determine which file you are wanting to play. If the file name is listed in the Winamp title bar, the script will grab it from there. Otherwise it will announce that there is no track ready to be played. If you have just opened a file in Winamp for the first time, but haven't played it, it's name won't appear in the Winamp title bar. To fix this, simply play and stop the file. Stopping the file is optional; playing it will cause its name to appear in the title bar and then the script will proceed. When you press Alt+Shift+m, the script will display a list box containing a list of all the time markers it has recorded for that track. Simply cursor through the list and press enter on the time marker you want to jump to. The script will say nothing after this, but playing will immediately skip to the selected time marker. If the file is not playing, it will start playing from the specified time marker. . control+Shift+m: remove time marker. This script must also be able to identify which track you are playing. It does this in the same way as the Alt+Shift+m script. A list box will be displayed containing a list of all the time markers recorded for the current file. To remove one, simply move to it with the arrow keys and press enter. The remaining time markers will be renumbered, etc. If you want to erase all the time markers, move to the last item in the list Remove all time markers, and press enter. This will only delete all time markers for the current file, not all the time markers you

Now tab thru the dialogue and make your settings changes as desired. Now tab to the apply button, and press enter, and then the okay button and do same. Now here's what should happen. All audio should come thru the soundcard you selected as the preferred playback device. This includes Jaws. Now to move Jaws to the other card, you will need to edit the jfw.ini file.

Re: Configuring Real Player 10.5
My feeling is that you have to be at least a good intermediate Jaws user to use Real Player with any level of competence. There are no actual scripts so it means using the mouse (Jaws) cursor a lot.

But, in any case, if all one ultimately wishes to do with the library is to scroll through a list of the media files already on one's computer and select what to play from there, it is far simpler, I find, to ignore the library, all together. Instead, from the winamp main window, press shift-l. One is then presented with a tree view of one's hard drive. browse the treeview till you come to the folder in which you store your media. You can click on the folder to load the entire contents of the folder into a playlist, or you can continue to browse your music folder till you find the particular subfolder containing just what you want to play. If all you want to play is a single track, not a folder full of tracks, start the whole process with the l (rather than shift-l) command, and browse the slightly different interface till you find the track you want to play, and click on it. In either of these ways, you can ignore the continually losing focus and difficult to negotiate library, all together. Blessed Be, Dana D. S. Leslie, née C. R.

In this section a list of songs will likely appear and it may be the last song you have played or a folder list of recently played songs. Just ignore these. You want to be in the folder where your music is stored. In my case, that folder is called mp3. This section is like a tree view so use your arrow keys until you have highlighted your music folder then when you have found it, do a right arrow to open the folder. At this point, press enter. If you have done everything correctly and if I haven't forgotten any steps--all the selections in your music folder should be added to your library. This does not mean that all the songs are duplicated again and that you are using up gigabytes of disk space. Adding your music files to library simply creats a list of your music files that you can access from your Winamp library. If you have your songs recorded in such a way that they are listed by artist, album, song title and track, you will have a very nice view of all your music from within your library. You will be able to see a list of all the artists, albums or song titles you have and each in a separate list. There is a bunch more info too but you will see that for yourself.

Re: Can't get Skype to Worok
They say the sound quality is a bit better. Skype out especially was a bit like talking on a 2-way radio and I believe this has improved. I had purchased Skype out previously but these credits are now used up. Personally, I found no real problems using Skype but my wife who makes most of the long distance phone calls in this household hated it. Once the new beta 4 becomes a non-beta I will likely buy more credits and give Skype out another try. Skype out just in case you don't know gives one the ability to initiate a call fron ones computer to someone's actual landline. Using Skype you talk using your headset and microphone to someone on the other end using a regular telephone. The cost is about 2 cents per minute Canadian anywhere in the world at any time. As Skype changes versions, the Jaws scripts are beginning to lose functionality but the program is still quite doable. - Original Message - From: chris ramsay [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: surround sound in winamp 5.1
Looks like Winamp is putting surround in 2 speakers--i.e. it appears to automatically change speaker settings. Yesterday, I noticed my speaker settings had been set to quadraphonic. I put them back to stereo after experimenting with the latest Winamp 5.1. Well, today, these settings had been changed again and this time they were on 5.1 surround sound.

Re: having trouble getting title streaming to work in winamp
I also had to totally remove Winamp from my system about 6 months ago. However, before doing that, try looking at the title option in general preferences (Control P). I believe titles is the third from the top--just under Play Lists. Once you find it, tab through and there are a number of items to check and uncheck. There is also a help section at the end--the fourth fifth or sixth tab along and that may give you some hints re your titles not being displayed while streaming. Also, another possibility--but less likely is in the library (alt l) when in the section called my new view there is a checkbox there that says display information or something similar. This box should be checked. I know, in my case, this checkbox somehow became unchecked--I noticed a couple of weeks ago and I have no idea how this happened--certainly, I never unchecked it. - Original Message - From: Bobcat [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Thanks to any and all who have a solution for me! ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Portable cd/mp3 player plus am/fm tuner recommendation
I have been searching audio stors for the following item and have been told so far that it is not available. I am looking for a portable A.M./F.M. tuner with memory presets. These can be on the unit itself or on a remote keypad. I would also like the unit to be able to play CD's and MP3's. I am looking for a small portable unit. I have been able to find the CD/MP3 unit and I have found the portable AM/FM tuner with between 20 and 40 presets but these have been separate units but I can't imagine that someone does not make a unit that combines all features. I have found a Sony DNS 320 or 420 that does just about everything but it is a diskman type unit which means it does not have its own speakers--just head phones. If this unit had speakers it would be perfect. Can anyone recommend the type of unit I am looking for or or has it not been built yet?
