I have the Zen Stone.  No radio.  Everything is 100 percent accessible. 
Listen to my demo of it at the website listed below for more details.

Hi Rick witch model of the Zen stone do you have?
Also how is the radio on that unit?
Does it also have any internal speakers or do you have to use only headphone
for listening to it?
Also how long does the battery last in that unit?

I'm not Rick, but I think we have the same Zen Stone. The model is just
the Zen Stone. It has a capacity of 1GB. It doesn't have a radio. It
doesn't have a display or speakers. You have to use head phones or
powered speakers with it. The battery is advertised to last for about 12
hours. I haven't measure it, but I get more like 8 hours. It also
doesn't require any software to copy music to it. It just shows up as a
USB drive on your PC, and you can use Windows Explorer to copy files to it.

Applian Press Release on Replay AV 8.4+

2007-12-18 Thread petrakigianos-giasou
  
 

Applian Technologies Announces New Technology to Record XM™ and
Sirius™ Internet Broadcasts

Applian Technologies releases a breakthrough technology to
record XM™ and Sirius™ Internet Broadcasts via stream capture.

San Anselmo, CA (PRWEB) December 18, 2007 -- Applian
Technologies has just released an update to their flagship
online media recording product, Replay AV, that offers the first
ever stream capture recording of Sirius™ and XM™ satellite
online radio broadcasts. This breakthrough release offers all
XM™ and Sirius™ subscribers the ability to automatically
schedule and record their favorite streaming satellite programs
with perfect bit-for-bit reproduction of the original feeds.
Additionally, Replay AV allows simultaneous recording of
multiple XM™ and Sirius™ streaming shows. 


"We are very excited to be the first software company to offer
this exciting new recording breakthrough," said Bill Dettering,
CEO of Applian Technologies. "This latest release of Replay AV
further demonstrates our leadership in recording radio shows
broadcast over the web, as well as other types of media. Our
satellite radio enthusiast beta testers have been thrilled."


In addition to downloading streaming audio, Replay AV also
captures streaming video, includes an integrated media guide for
recording and scheduling radio shows, converts all the popular
audio and video formats, imports recordings automatically into
iTunes and offers the ability to send recorded files via the
integrated YouSendIt™ application. Replay AV works with any PC
running Windows. You can learn more about it at
www.Replay-AV.com.


About Applian Technologies

Applian Technologies was started by Bill Dettering in 2000 with
the launch of Replay Radio, a program Bill created to combat the
boredom of his long commute down to Silicon Valley. Replay Radio
allowed Bill to record his favorite radio shows and listen
whenever he wanted. Helping people get more enjoyment out of
streaming media is what Applian Products are all about. Now,
seven years after the launch of Replay Radio, Applian is
recognized as the global leader in recording software. Other
popular Applian products include the Audio Video Streaming
Capture Suite, Replay Media Catcher, Replay Music, Replay
Converter, Replay Screencast and At-Large Recorder, their
Slingbox™ recorder. Learn more about Applian Technologies and

Re: Address Changed for BlindReplay blog

2007-12-18 Thread Chris Skarstad
Hey Petro.  I just looked at the blog, and it's a great idea, however 
I noticed there's no way to comment on the posts? I think if you're 
going to do a blog about replay and other media products from Applian 
from a blind user's perspective, it only makes sense that other blind 
users should be able to comment on the usability of the programs, and 
offer tips for the Applian staff so they can watch out for problems 
relating to accessibility.  From just the little I saw there, there's 
not really much that separates the blind replay blog from Applian's 
update blog, you're just getting the exact same info, just at a 
different address. It'll only be really effective if we can share 
ideas and make this awesome program as great as it can be with a 
screenreader, without having to install loads of scripts or sets to 
get it going.
Nice start though, good going!

SV: RadioTime

Hello!
Does it cost anything?
I mean radio time?

Brent

Both Replay AV and RadioTime are great programs; and I have both on my pc.
There are a couple of advantages associated with RadioTime vs Replay. As
Radiotime (the program is actually called Redbutton) is managed via the 
website, rather from within the program, you can modify your recording 
schedule from any pc.
Secondly, while a recording is in progress, you can quickly jump back (and 
then again forward) in 3 minute intervals so you can quickly hear someone 
again.

Which program is better?  Both are great; if I could only have one, 
however, I'd opt for Replay AV.
But since I can have both, I do.

Hi all, I am going to be doing a lot of curning on CD. I have been useing
a variety of disks and found that some work ok, some do not and its got
me upset. I even went as far to buy a new high end burner thinking maybe

Also, are there any disks out there that hold more than the normal 70
minutes
I need a bunch and looking for the best but also a good deal, can anyone
