I'm pretty sure there has to be a way to do it though. it uses an html 5 player, which most screenreaders can recognize, so listening to the audio is no problem. It offers podcast feeds, but it only offers the last 10 or so items posted, and I'd like to get a lot more of it. At one time it did allow downloads but has since stopped for whatever reason.

The battery life of the BW T7 is around 19 hours.

Re: Looking for An Accessible CD Ripper
ez audio converter which works like a charm. On 2/10/2015 1:41 PM, Evan Reese wrote: Hey Guys, I tried to install and use two CD rippers today without success. First, I tried to install the latest CDEX. After three tries, I finally found a site that actually let me download it. The first one said the page could not be displayed, the second and third had download links, but nothing happened when I hit them. One even said my program was downloading, but my IE11 didn’t download anything. Finally, I downloaded the file and tried to install it. It wanted to install three third party programs, AdAware, Tune Up Utilities, and (I think) Pluto TV. My Window Eyes 8.4 could find no check boxes to select whether to not install these, so I just clicked Next and figured I’d uninstall them after I got CDEX successfully installed. However, when I hit Next after Pluto TV came up, it asked me to select an option and an Okay button came up. I reached an impasse at that point, since I couldn’t see how to select the option. So that was the end of trying to install CDEX. Then I tried VLC Media Player. Installing that was easy. Then I brought up the instructions on how to rip CDs with it that Dane so thoughtfully provided a while back. However, not all those controls in setting up the ripping process are accessible for me with Window Eyes 8.4. For example, I cannot check the CD check box. It just won’t change from Unchecked no matter how many times I hit the space bar. I can’t even get it to play a CD that’s in the tray. I know it plays because I can bring up Winamp and play it. The problem with Winamp of course is that it doesn’t know what it’s playing anymore, so I’m trying to find a ripper that knows the tracks. I looked up Exact Audio Copy, but it looks intimidatingly complicated to me frankly. So, anybody got any suggestions for an ACCESSIBLE ripper that I can try that’s not overly complex, but that will produce reasonably good results. I’d really appreciate some advice. Oh, how I miss being able to do the job with Winamp! Evan

I've been looking at this off and on for a while now but have held back because I've never been sure whether the controls are accessible to someone who is totally blind. This especially as it has a lot of features which could potentially make it quite complicated to operate. Anyway, two things coincided. I just read Pete's post about the Roar and Creative have just (possibly temporarily) dropped the price to £99. I'm just wondering if Pete has had any issues with the controls as I know it has a lot of selectable options? I've got the Boes Soundlink Mini which is good but sometimes a little too bassy. And I had hoped too sometimes use the Mini via Bluetooth with Jaws from my PC but found that the Mini kind of cuts off the beginning of Jaws audio unless it is getting continuous sound. Anyway, I'm really interested in the versatility of the Ror and it's currently a great price. Thanks for any info.

how much do they want for this speaker system On 11/29/2014 11:33 AM, Mary Otten wrote: I read a couple of reviews, one on CNet and the other I think on iLounge, but might be wrong on that one.

Also, one review I saw said that they had problems maintaining the bluetooth connection, just as they have had with airplay offerings from BW such as the Zeppelin. I never owned that one, so I can't comment one way or the other. My only recent experience with BW has been with the MM1s, which I love and with in wall speakers in the home we lived in a few years ago; those were also fantastic for what they were.

Just be sure you re-read this screen as I cannot remember if this checkbox is to be checked or unchecked as you do not need this welcome screen.

Locate the Library module/tab by pressing your TAB keyboard key multiple times on main UI and when you find the Library module/tab press shift+tab and you will land on the list view. Settings and Conversions Settings Choose the Library module/tab on main interface. Press alt+l. The library menu has the Settings Conversions Settings The settings and conversion settings tab sheets do not work with ctrl+tab but do not make any modifications with it. Keep it as is. It works great. The blind JAWS user will know to use his route JAWS to PC cursor command. Then do a left mouse click with JAWS to press/activate the tab sheet tabs that he wants to configure. Then he should go back to PC cursor mode with numpad +. The route JAWS to PC Cursor keystroke is Insert+Num Pad minus Use your arrow keys to navigate the tab sheet text that you wants to configure or take a glance at. For example, locate the Monitor, plug-ins, rtmp, http and the other tabs you have on one of the tab sheets in the Internet settings. Route JAWS to PC cursor with insert+numpad minus then use arrow keys to find the text 'plugins' and place focus on the letter 'p' on the text called plugins and do a JAWS left mouse click with keystroke Numpad / using the numeric keypad. this will activate/choose the plugins tab sheet properties.

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.

Re: Balabolka
No, what i said was this. 1 i converted a small file to mp3, that worked. using the method you specified. 2 then i tried to set up a larger file to convert to mp3. did the same steps as you outlined for the first one. when done there was no mp3 in the folder i had placed in the path. so while the smaller file converted just fine, the larger one did not convert at all. would you like the file so you can try it? On 6/29/2014 5:18 PM, Humberto Rodriguez wrote: Well Sunshine, I am not sure I understand what you wrote, but it seems to me that you did what I said and it worked, then you did it again with larger 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.
