Re: [Blind-Computing] Audio Software Issue

Hi All, I received a suggestion to convert the file to Wave format, using Winamp, since it plays with that software, then use GoldWave to convert it to MP3 which is what I wanted to convert it to in the first place. Does anyone know how to do this with Winamp 5.35, Jaws 7, GoldWave 5.20 and Wi

Hi Al, If you aren't sure about something in the startup group, then leave it be. If you look at the path given, and find that the item in question resides in the program files folder, then uncheck it. If you find anything relating to windows audio, leave it checked as this could affect the audio

Re: [Blind-Computing] Audio Software Issue

Hi Bob, I wouldn't even know how to begin something like that. Could you give me step-by-step instructions outlining how to do this sort of thing? I would also ask, if I'm recording the thing as it is playing, why would I need to convert it after I've recorded it? Why not record it as an MP3
