Re: Podcast Receivers

2007-03-10 Thread Mike Pietruk
Brandon

I wouldn't attempt downloading podcasts via a dial-up.
And partially downloaded podcasts or failed downloads are worthless and 
more often than not an indication of a problem not of Juice but the sender 
itself.
For instance, Juice has been unable to successfully download podcasts of 2 
shows I routinely capture --- Bruce Williams of the LifeStyle Radio 
Network and Investors Edge of the Business Talk Radio Network.
Out of curiosity last night, I checked the sites manually and noted that 
both podcasts, for whatever reasons, had faulty archives.
So, in a situation such as this, Juice, which is a robot of sorts, just 
keeps trying and trying (like a dutiful agent should) to get something 
which is impossible for it to grab as what it's after simply fails to 
exist.
Perhaps the error msgs might be better, but the positive point is knowing 
that you have a podcatcher which doesn't give up until it gets what's it 
is after.
This is preferable to something that tries once and then simply doesn't 
try again.

What I'm going to do is this:

(1) copy the subscription file for future use.

(2)  Remove the subscriptions which aren't currently working so the failed 
downloads don't dominate the downloads list.

(3)  In a couple of days, add in the failed subscriptions to see if things 
have changed.

Re: Itunes for Windows accessability issues

2007-03-10 Thread Mike Pietruk
Dane

This is basically good news.

Now for the question that someone can address:

I have iTunes 7.1 and WE6.0 on my xp system.  So how do I manually force 
iTunes to search for latest shows it is subscribed to.
Right now, this seems hit or miss.

I should point out that I only use iTunes for podcast subscriptions that 
require it and otherwise use Juice for automated downloads.

Re: FTP and DST Off Topic

2007-03-10 Thread Chuck Adkins
I agree. Trees stand because when a strong wind blows, their branches have 
the ability to bend a little. Because I use an FTP client in my audio work, 
many moons ago my first thought would have been to write or post to a list 
to ask about which FTP client should I use or try to get help with a 
particular FTP Client. --that would have been my first thought. Now that I 
am smarter and realize how email lists are ran, I just pick up the phone.

RE: FTP Programs Off Topic

2007-03-10 Thread Tom
Tate,

The FTP discussion was straying into how to use various FTP 
programs and not discussing uploading and downloading audio.  
Otherwise I wouldn't have said it was off topic.

The way to use a particular program would be more appropriate 
to discuss on a general Windows list.

Chuck,

It has nothing to do with bending.  It has to do with 
breaking.  When a discussion gets away from the intent of a 
list it continues to go further and further off topic and 
people unsubscribe.

Re: Itunes for Windows accessability issues

Ok, well I cannot answer your question as I've played with Itunes for  
the PC all be it too briefly but I will have a look in a few minutes  
just to satisfy my curiosity. If you want to attempt to get an answer  
quicker than I can provide than may I suggest that you try the Gw- 
Info mailing list? Last time I was subscribed, it seemed that several  
list members were using Itunes so they may be able to help you. Of  
course, someone on this list may know in the meanwhile.

 Ok!  For what likely is the stupid question for the month of March on
 this
 list:

 I would like to run the signal of our tv cable into a desktop pc.
 I am guessing that I need a tv tuner usb card into which I plug the
 cable.
 That is probably the simple part.
 I am also guessing that I also need a piece of software to select the
 channels that are playing at any given moment, and this could have some
 accessability issues as the wrong software might make channel hopping
 difficult.

 I am using Window-Eyes 6.0 on a machine operating with XP home with 512
 mb
 of ram.
 There is plentyof free disk space.

 Can you folks give me some direction as to what I need to look for.
 While
 I rather spend more than less, my ultimate goal is simplicity of us
 preferably with the simplicity I can get now of tapping a few keys or
 numbers and getting to the desired channel.

Hi Sky,

Yeah.  Probably so.  The performance of the Plustek Book Reader is 
unfortunate, given the absolutely relevolutionary OpticBook 3600 scanner, 
which I continue to recommend especially for those who need to scan a lot of

 Hi Darrell,
 I'm not sure about digital cable, I just have basic hooked directly 
 into
 the
 card which is 125 channel. My guess is that a converter box going into
 the

Ipods, what's being used these days.

2007-03-10 Thread Dane Trethowan
Hi@
The subject of Ipods seems to have been discussed allot here lately  
and silly me, I've ignore the topic but now that Itunes is more  
accessible than it was I'm seriously looking at getting one and I  
know that a whole heap of you out there are happily riding your  
trusty steeds through your music collection. So I'm specifically  
thinking of something like the Ipod video with the 80 gig drive, has  
anyone used this at all? Rockbox doesn't particularly worry me at  
this stage as I know that a version is being developped for the new  
Ipod video anyway.

RE: Ipods, what's being used these days.

2007-03-10 Thread David Reynolds


I don't think you need to worry too much about accessibility at the computer
end, since mosrt players such as winamp and windows media player now seem to
cater for ipods and other players. It is more to do with the accessibility
of the player itself. I have a creative zen, and it has a 30gb drive. Wow!
The only problem is I don't remember what I've got on it. It looks unlikely
that rockbox will be adapted for this player. Having said all that, I'm
quite happy with it, and whenever I forget what's on there, I can just link
it up to the pc and get the computer to tell me. Ipods are a bit of a
problem, since most use touch sensative controls, no buttons, just a smooth
surface. My wife has one, and I find it impossible to use.

2007-03-10 Thread Dane Trethowan
Thanks for this and as you say, its just a matter of remembering  
what's on the player and you can hook the player up to your PC or Mac  
to find out, now I'm sure I read somewhere that Ipods could immit a  
click when a menu option was changed or when you ran your finger  
round the wheel, anyone know about this? If this is the case then  
this would also be helpful.

RE: Ipods, what's being used these days.

2007-03-10 Thread David Reynolds


This is true. They do emit a small click, but you'd probably have to take
your earphones out to hear it.

Thanks for this and as you say, its just a matter of remembering  
what's on the player and you can hook the player up to your PC or Mac  
to find out, now I'm sure I read somewhere that Ipods could immit a  
click when a menu option was changed or when you ran your finger  
round the wheel, anyone know about this? If this is the case then  
this would also be helpful.

Hi@
The subject of Ipods seems to have been discussed allot here lately and
silly me, I've ignore the topic but now that Itunes is more accessible than
it was I'm seriously looking at getting one and I know that a whole heap of
you out there are happily riding your trusty steeds through your music
collection. So I'm specifically thinking of something like the Ipod video
with the 80 gig drive, has anyone used this at all? Rockbox doesn't
particularly worry me at this stage as I know that a version is being
developped for the new Ipod video anyway.

 Hi Darrell,
 I'm not sure about digital cable, I just have basic hooked directly 
 into
 the
 card which is 125 channel. My guess is that a converter box going into
 the
 card set to the appropriate channel like in the old Vcr days would act
 similarly.

Re: FTP Programs Off Topic

2007-03-10 Thread Jana Jackson
Tom, since I was the one who posed the question, I have to tell you that you 
apparently did not read my question very carefully.  I was NOT asking about 
how to use an FTP client.  I simply wanted info on FTP clients that were 
accessible.  I've been on many e-mail lists, and I've never seen a moderator 
make such a huge deal over a question that wasn't even completely off-topic! 
Now, maybe someone else asked about how to use an FTP client once upon a 
time, but since mine seems to have caused the problem, I encourage you to 
take another look at the original post.
