What you Hear Setting with Sound Blaster XFi Titanium HD

[Samuel Wilkins]

Hello everyone, I am thinking of obtaining a Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD
soundcard, however one of the things I would like to do is record using What
you Hear, and I have read on some of the forums that it is difficult doing
this with this sound card.  Has anyone had any joy recording in What you
Hear with this sound Card?  Thank you.

Re: CD Problem

[roger.south]

Hi John

Been so long since I input all my vinyl and cassettes to the PC I'd 
forgotten all about it. But of course it's the obvious answer. Many thanks 
for pointing out the simple answer to me.

Hi,

It does sound like some kind of protection system. I'm not sure what method
of protection would give this but I'm guessing it may be something called
multi-session disc.

I wouldn't know how to brake this protection but you could use a regular cd
player with a sound card to record the tracks as wave or mp3 to your pc by
connecting the output of your cd player to the input of your sound card and
use an audio recorder program like audasity or sound forge.

hth, John

Subject: CD Problem



Hello

A few years ago I purchased a set of 12 double disc albums called 
ClassicJazz from Time Life. I’ve played them often on a CD player in the 
room I keep my PC. That has now been removed and all music is played on my 
pC with the surround sound it’s hooked into. I decided to load all my 
music onto an external hard drive and get rid of the discs. I found these 
jazz discs will not load into the PC player. Going to My Computer the CD 
drive shows as empty. The same is true of my wife’s laptop and my son’s PC 
and laptop but any player except one connected to a computer will play 
them with no problems. I’ve contacted Time Life and find the UK site no 
longer exists. Therefore I dealt with the US Company. The ClassicJazz 
series is no longer sold. I received a response to my email asking me to 
phone them. I replied saying I’m located in the Uk and have heard no more 
from them.


I seem to remember Sony brought out an anti copying method which sound 
like what I’m experiencing here. I seem to also remember it was said you 
could break this protection by rubbing a felt tip pen round the edge of 
the disc. I’ve tried this to no avail. I could bring back a CD player into 
this room and fit it into the sound system just to play this one set of 
discs but I’d much rather have them all on my hard drive. Has anyone any 
ideas to help me, please?


Many thanks Roger

RSS or podcast feeds, could someone help please

[Larry]

Hey listers,

Just wonder if someone could help me with this issue.

I am trying to figure out how to use IE8 as an aggregator for 
podcasts, but can't figure out how to effectively subscribe to RSS 
feeds. In other words, when I subscribe, I never get any indication 
that I've been in anyway successful. I have never received a Podcast 
from C-SPAN for example, and others I cannot at present recall.


If IE isn't a practical way to subscribe to or receive Podcasts, 
please let me know, and also why this should be.


If anybody could recommend another aggregator besides iTunes, that 
would really be appreciated also.


If this is understood by any who might be willing to respond to this 
question to be barely on topic, please respond off list.


Thanks much,

Larry

[Dean Masters]

I think you are supposed to set IE to download files from rss but when I 
tried it a long time ago it didn't download as expected. If you do save the 
rss then I guess you could go and download each one individually by entering 
on the link.

sound taxi removing tags during conversion

[André van Deventer]

Hi all

 

I must say I am a bit disappointed in sound taxi.

 

It seems as if when I convert protected wma files to 320 mp3 files, the
programme does not seem to convert the audio tags in the wma file.  Is there
any way to change this?

 

Andre
