If you choose to use Sonar, there's also a free set of Jaws scripts called
JSonar. You can go to

www.jsonar.org

to read about it and download it.

Since you'll be learning Sonar for the first time, I recommend the
CakeTalking package from Dancing Dots. That comes with plenty of
documentation.

Hello Kieth.

Haven't time to give links, but there is quite a choice of sound editors
that work with screen readers generally including JFW.

Paid for stereo editors include:
Sony:
Sound Forge, Sound Studio

Goldwave

Studio Recorder from A P H.  - this doesn't need scripts or anything as 
it

is designed from the ground up to be accessible.  Can be used for music,

but

is primarily meant for speech editing.

Audacity, which is freeware or open source software.  Believe there are

JFW

scripts for this one.  It is a multi-track editor but can of course be

used

for stereo editing.

In the multi-track field there is Sonar or Cakewalk which it developped

from

I believe.  tthis is a combined audio and midi editor and very much aimed

at

musicians.  Think the scripts here come from Dancing Dots.

Finally, their is Adobe Audition, but how well this works with JFW I

simply

don't know.  this was known as Cool Edit until Adobe acquired it, since

when

it has gone through a few inaccessible versions, but I hear things are
beginning to be put right re. post version 3.

So, hope all that helps and a bit of Googling will turn up the info you

need.

I have a korg x50 keyboard that I record all my music with in cakewalk 
sonar, not sure if i can use that as a midi keyboard controlor in melone if 
so how do i do this? Also the functions like the pitch monglate and other 
controls i want to use are not easy for me to find on the screen. for 
example if i want to use the pitch monglation tool to flatting the peaks to 
give my voice the robot sound. Thank you for your responce and I'm going to

Hi keeth!
melodyne is a note editor for vocals, you can use the right and left arrows
on your keyboard to listen to the notes of the vocals of the song. then with
a midi keyboard you can edit the actual notes. for example, let's say that
you have a vocal part where a note is a little bit out of pitch, then you
can use tha vocal wave file and go with the left and right arrows, and when
you hear that note which is out of key, you can simply press one of the
notes on the midi keyboard which is coresponding to that note in that key
whoch the song is in.
hope this helps.

Re: two second gap

2007-03-30 Thread keith
Go to your list of tracks that you just put into nero and go to each track
one after another and click on the properties for each file and there is a
option that you can change to cause the cd to continue to the next track
without that 2 second pause. when you click on that property that I spoke of
earlyer you will see a option that says something like pause and the number
2. Change the 2 to 0 wich is saying that you don't want any pauses in
between that track and the next track. Hope that this helps a little maybe
someone else can explain this better than me.

Thanks for that, said all I wanted to say in a nutshell. Yes, there
is no doubt that the Nokia and Lg phoens have TTS in them but that is
mainly for "voice prompting" etc but its at least a start and
positive comment to the manufacturers could result in something bigger.
Of course we all long for the "perfect device" but until we get such
a device then we have to "live and let live", adapt where possible
and use what we have at our disposal, in the meantime positive
comment never did anyone any harm.
The other issue is, who's going to pay for all the extra development
costs needed for accessability products? I don't know whether the
investors in Nokia would be too happy about that just quietly. The
other solution of course is to design a product from the ground up
with accessability in mind, Nokia never have and I doubt ever will do
that, again it comes down to cost. There have been mobile phones
built for accessability, can't remember their names now but I'm sure
other people will put me on the right track and of course, there are
devices round such as the Icon. Now that said, we come back to the
same problem, these devices do cost.

On 20/07/2007, at 4:11 AM, Chris Skarstad wrote:

I'd actually say Dane is correct on this one, cause most of the
phones that have TTS built in weren't done so with accessibility of
the blind in mind.  We are a very small market and unless a large
percentage of our group starts making noise, the phone manufacturers
like Nokia won't even consider putting accessibility related features
into their phones, because the bottom line is selling them, and they
aren't going to put a special feature in for 1 percent of the market
they're selling to.  I'm not sure if I'm as hot on the iPhone as some
folks are.  To me it's far too expensive and right now, I wouldn't
even be able to use some of its features, nore would I want to. I'm
not saying anyone else shouldn't buy it, I'm just saying it's not for
me.

Hello Listers,
I started burning mp3 files to my hard drive with nero 5.5 and the nero mp3
pro plug in in 2003.  I also downloaded and installed the Nero plug_in for
Windows Media Player 9x, and installed the Cyberlink mp3 encoder as well.  I
upgraded to Nero 6, then Nero 6.6 ultra, still no problembs using the
Extras/Save Tracks or the Extras/Encode Files menu options in Nero Burning
Rom 5.5, 6.0, or 6.6 Ultra to burn music CDS in mp3 format to my hard drive.
As a matter of fact, I copied so many music CDs to my 2.2 GHZ, 40 GB,
Windows XP pro, SP2 Gateway Laptop, that I ran out of disk space.  I
replaced the 40 Gb hard drive with a 120 GB harddrive last weekend.  I
reinstalled Nero Burning Rom 6.6 ultra along with the nero mp3 pro plug in,
reinstalled the Nero plug_in for Windows Media Player 9x, and the Cyberlink
mp3 encoder.  Now when I go to Extras/Save Tracks, the settings button is
disabled, and Nero saves all files in .AC3 format, and I can't change the
format.  I uninstalled Nero 6.6 Ultra and reinstalled it, but it did no
good.  I even went to the Nero site, bought Nero 7 ultra and installed it,
but the settings button in Extras/Save Tracks is still disabled, and its
stuck on .AC3 format, and I can't change it.

In Nero7 Ultra, I even went to the Options/Audio dialog and tried to change
the format, but it won't take there either.

If anyone can help me with this problem I would be most grateful.  I'm sure
it's something I'm doing wrong.

Thanks for any help with this problem.

Hi Dennis,

I'm replying to you off list.  Is your copy broken into 4 parts?  If so, you 
could upload each part to www.sendspace.com

Put my email address into the email field then I could download it.

You would need to do this for all 4 parts so it would take a while to upload 
it.

Do you have access to an FTP site where you could place the file for 
download?

I also have a ton of audio books and I would be happy to trade with you. 
Just name some author's or titles and I might have them.

Let me know what you think...Keith

Hi Dennis,

I'm replying to you off list.  Is your copy broken into 4 parts?  If so, you
could upload each part to www.sendspace.com

Put my email address into the email field then I could download it.

You would need to do this for all 4 parts so it would take a while to upload
it.

Do you have access to an FTP site where you could place the file for
download?

I also have a ton of audio books and I would be happy to trade with you.
Just name some author's or titles and I might have them.

Let me know what you think...Keith

A couple of months ago, there was a great thread on this list about FM
transmitters. A user recommended the transmitter found at
http://www.wavemach.com.

I purchased one of these and am thrilled. The range is huge, the
construction solid, no nasty power hum, very good stereo separation, in
short, no complaints whatsoever. I got him to add a level control that
allows me to set the line in for the two RCA sockets, and he also added
small buttons for setting the frequency. It has a standard antenna socket at
the back and comes with a very solid little antenna, not just a wire.

So if you're looking for an FM transmitter, this one is definitely worth a
look, but it is on the high end of the price range. You definitely get what
you pay for though.

Keith, 'scuse the strong opinion, but yes I do have a cCrane here and it is
complete crap compared with this new one. Absolutely no comparison. When you
crank the volume up on a radio tuned to the CCrane, you can hear the nasty
sound of the electronics. The CCrane would, I would estimate, have about a
quarter of the range of the new one, even after the mod. Just no contest!

Is total recorder still a good option for doing this please or are people

Hello Bryan

You absolutely can not go wrong with Replay A/V from

http://www.replayav.com

The wonderful thing about it is that it can record a program, and it
captures the stream without taking over your sound card.  So it
records in the background, and you can continue to surf the net or
use your screenreader, without having to worry that your screenreader
will interrupt the recording.  The other wonderful thing about Replay
A/V is a tool it has called the URL finder.  If you want to record
something, but don't know the address, all  you need to do is to
start the URL finder, play the audio you want to record for a minute
or so, and if things go right, the URL finder will get the address,
and you can then schedule it as a new show and record it right then
if it's an archive, or if it's a live show at a scheduled time,
Replay A/V will record it for you.  The program requires no scripts
or set files for its use, however if you use Window-eyes, you may
experience a bit of difficulty with the guide you can use to find and
schedule shows.
It will record mp3, real audio and Windows media streams, and the
included replay converter will allow you to convert any recording to
any other format you choose.  So if your stream is a windows Media
one and you want to save it as an mp3, Replay A/V will capture the
stream for you, and then afterwords, convert it to mp3 so you can
listen to it whenever it's convenient for you.  To me this is a much
better sollution because no extra sound card drivers can get in the
way, and that's the case, it's much easier and less intrusive. I hope
this helps.

Re: [blindreplay] Freecorder 2 & Freecorder Toolbar Scripts Wanted

Petro,

You seem to be highly comfortable with the response that Applian uses
third-party contractors for various components of its software business and
therefore has no responsibility to its customers for the performance of
these components, which in our case is the accessibility of Applian
software.  In the past decade and a half, the blind community and
disability community as a whole have totally and completely rejected this
buck passing.  First the major software companies, including Microsoft,
Real Networks, and Adobe have been expected from the get go to provide full
access to their software, regardless of how it was developed.

next, folks engaged the country's largest financial institutions to create
access to banking services.  The banks worked with vendors, contractors and
service providers to deliver talking ATM's for the blind and accessible
websites.  These efforts led to the first legally binding settlement
agreements that committed to web accessibility for people with
disabilities.


The bank projects were followed by initiatives on cell phone accessibility.
the issue was that the wireless service providers passed the buck to the
handset manufacturers.  yet, the manufacturing companies said that they
designed phones with significant input from the providers who would largely
market and sell the phones.  The arrangement was hardly that of an
impartial, arms-length party just purchasing goods in the marketplace,
passing the hot potato of access back to the wireless providers.

The efforts led to a 2004 agreement by Audio and Verizon Communications to
design, manufacture, market and sell a cell phone accessible to the blind
with audio-enabled controls.

similarly, people with disabilities expected accessibility of voting
machines in the United States during the last election cycle during the
2006 elections.  Software and control devices for some machines were
developed or designed at some of the voting machine companies by foreign
subsidiaries or third party vendors.  Local election officials facilitated
relationships with the various parties to obtain and significantly improve
access, allowing voters with certain kinds of disabilities to vote
independently for the first time.

I realize that the large companies often have complex and many-layered
relationships with their vendors and contractors.  A vendor may develop or
provide access to a product or service to prevent the institution from
developing a relationship with another vendor who can provide access and
possibly a whole lot more.  The large companies can leverage these
relationships to obtain consideration from vendors that smaller companies
can't.

all of this being said, it is highly disappointing that we seem to accept
wholesale Applian's response regarding access issues with their products.
They don't explain why access issues could not have been written into the
contracts or agreements they have with their vendors.  It is not clear if
the company raised these issues in a meaningful manner early on in the
relationship with the third party vendor or if it was an afterthought once
the work was completed.

In various areas of technology access for more than a decade, people with
disabilities have worked with companies to achieve greater independence in
their lives through technology.  the third-party contractor argument has
not been accepted by disability leaders who have worked on access in
various sectors in the technology industry.  In a similar way it has also
been rejected by the mainstream as well.  Wednesday's Wall Street Journal
ran a lengthy page one investigation of how the largest retailers and
apparel makers in the United States are responsible for incredible
pollution in China for demanding ever lower prices, leading contractors to
pollute the environment to save money.  there was no suggestion that gap,
Target, Nike, and the like had no responsibility because they used a third
party vendor.

Applian's shoulder shrugging and subsequent finger pointing to a
third-party vender isn't a constructive response to developing accessible
solutions.  it is unclear why the company cannot incorporate accessible
design into their relationships with these vendors or if they have even
asked about it at the start of their relationship.  I don't believe at this
time why our expectations for access should be relaxed at this time when
other organizations have been able to develop systems and approaches around
these same issues.  the end result has been access that we all now use and

Re: Recommendation Portable P A System

2007-09-02 Thread Keith Gillard
Hi,

I checked out EBay using the search term Fender passport.

Found lots of hits.

The 250 version new is available for around $500 US
Note that there is also 500 and 150 watt systems under this model.

They come with two microphones and the latest versions come with a CD player 
built in.

You will need to purchase speaker stands separately which are also available 
on EBay.

Cheers...Keith

SoundTaxi Professional detects how many files could be converted at the same

Hello.  I have listened to many of the podcasts about digital recorders.  I
would like a small one for recording conferences and lectures.  I would love
the ease of use of the Olympus Ds-50, and don't need more space than it is
limited to, but want to get the best quality I can.  My frames of reference
are cassette-recorder built-in mics and the build-in mic on the PtR2, which
is terrible.

If I were to spend under US $300,

1.  Does the Ds-50 do a good job in conference situations, better than the
two benchmarks I've mentioned?

2.  How does your recorder, whichever you use, do in lecture or conference
situations?

I appreciate nay input.

Hi Darryl,

Good point.  One can drag the file on to the pc and edit it that way of

Does the DS50 connect to the PC and show up as an external drive or, is

It does not have a Microphone input incase that might be 
something you need.

Re: problem with sound taxi

2007-09-15 Thread Keith Gillard
Hi Brian,

I have not noted this error in particular however,

I have had problems converting DRM files into .wav format.

The process will take the usual several hours or so but in the end the wav 
file will not play or allow for conversion into MP3 format.  I don't seem to 
have this issue if I go straight to MP3.

Have you opened your book in windows Media player prior to conversion? 
Sometimes the imbedded marks in audible files can cause havoc with the 
conversion process.  I like to open them in WMP, start the book, then stop 
the book to reset the file.

There are updated versions of sound taxi which claim to batch process more 
then two files at once, and claim to convert up to 40x.

I contacted the vender in the Ukraine but was advised that there is no 
update policy.  In other words, you would need to pay full price for the 
latest version.

Good luck and let us know if you actually find a fix.

hth...Keith

Subject: problem with sound taxi


Hi

I have a problem with sound taxi and I wonder if anyone has experienced
this.

When converting an Audible book, the conversion progresses relatively quick
as I would expect.  However, when the progress indicator reaches 100 per
cent, it takes at least an hour to show that the file is converted, it could
be much more than that time.  Sound taxi leaves at least an hour of blank
space at the end of the converted book as well and I suspect this is what it
is doing when the progress indicator reaches 100 per cent and stays visible.

If anyone has any suggestions I would like to hear about them please.   I
wonder how often the software is updated, or how you can tell if you have
the latest release?

Thanks.

Brian Hartgen

Re: Where can I find drivers for my soundcard? I don't have them.

2007-10-01 Thread Keith Gillard
Sure.  I've seen these services before.  $29 for a subscription.  Your 
better off searching individually for specific drivers.

I would like to hear any jfw user testimonials on this service.  I think 
using this service would create more problems then fixes.

Just my opinion and thanks for the link...KG

The Marantz PMD620 might be kind of an Edirol R-09 with a built-in

CDRWIN seems to be accessible with Window-Eyes and it will also copy

Are any of you other nhl hockey fans out there having trouble accessing the

site:

http://www.nhl.com/radio/index.html

However, over the past two days, whenever I access the above link, the page
indicates that there are no games available for listening. On both Friday
and Saturday, there have been a number of games. On Friday, I was able to
access one team website, that of the Anaheim Ducks, to hear there match, but
today I am unable to hear any games either through the nhl radio page or any
of the team sites.

If anyone's got some insight into this problem, I'd love to hear it, since I
can't hear anything else right now.

Hi,

It is the combination of Mode plus any one of the five buttons on the front

Note that the unit appears to be more reliable if you hold down the mode

You could try Googleing each artist/title to help determine the value.

Hi Gordon.

You should find no difference whatsoever when ripping to wma lossless as the
nero ripper, and any other ripper for that matter,will be using a microsoft
provided codec.

There is much debate on which program will give a better rip but the truth
is that it really depends more on your CD-ROM drive.  If you have a good
drive you'll get consistent rips from any of the programs.

Personally I use media player and get excellent rips.  Good enough to play
through an expensive high end hifi system.

Sure.  The quality of the TTS is OK but not near Elequents in my opinion.

The unit is about the width of a deck of cards.

The unit is slightly longer then a deck of cards.

The volume of the speaker is not grate but certainly would do in a quiet

Plans are in place to support Plays for sure DRM but the unit does not right

Price point is pretty good for this unit.

VICTOR READER STREAM DAISY, MP3 AND NISO PLAYER IS NOW AUDIBLE READY

Portable MP3 Player Specifically Designed for the Blind and Visually
Impaired now Compatible with Audible.com

Longueuil(Canada), November 15, 2007

Victor Reader Stream, the pocket-sized portable MP3 player designed for
blind and low-vision people now has the capability to play the popular
Audible.com books. In addition to the variety of audio formats (MP3, DAISY,
and NISO books and music) supported by Victor Reader Stream, the Audible
format will provide a huge additional choice of content to the users.
Audible is the leading provider of spoken audio on the internet, providing
over 140,000 hours of digital audio editions of books, newspapers and
magazines.

The Stream has extensive navigation features for moving through audio books
and text files, including functions that allow you to move to the next
chapter, section or page, or to set bookmarks.  For Audible books, the user
will be able to navigate from one Audible heading to the next, move by
increments of one-, five-, or ten-minute time jumps, and move with an
accelerated fast forward feature that announces the amount of time lapsed.
Blind and low-vision people who listen to talking books on a regular basis
often prefer to speed up the playback. For all audio book formats that
Stream plays, including Audible, variable speed control with digital pitch
correction allows the reader to accurately listen at higher than normal
playback speed.

The player is completely accessible by blind and low-vision users. All keys
and messages are provided through audio feedback. The player has a built-in
User Guide and a Key Describer mode to remind the user of keypad functions.
It comes with integrated text-to-speech voice, allowing it to play text-only
files and announce the track names of music files. It uses an SD memory card
to store books and music transferred from a computer.

"We are very happy to bring the advanced navigation features of Stream to
the Audible listener experience", says Gerry Chevalier, HumanWare Victor
Reader Product Manager. "I know of no other Audible-ready player that offers
accessibility, variable speed playback, and advanced navigation, all in one
package."

"We are very much aware of the value and popularity of Audible books for the
blind and visually impaired", says Will Lopes, Vice President for Business
Development at Audible. "We are pleased to work with HumanWare to bring the
benefits of the accessible Victor Reader Stream player to Audible
listeners".

Victor Reader Stream can be purchased online at www.humanware.com (in USA).
Current Victor Reader Stream users will need to upgrade their player to
software version 1.1 in order to play Audible books. The latest version 1.1
software upgrade is also available online at www.humanware.com.

About HumanWare
HumanWare (www.humanware.com) is the global leader in assistive technologies
for the print disabled. HumanWare provides products to people who are blind

Subject: Winamp, my thoughts and VLC


Ok folks, I tried out the latest (and greatest?) version of Winamp and I had
a few problems running it on the trashbox (otherwise known as the Windows
PC)  For some reason (I don't know why) Winamp it seems, was
responsible for the Trashbox crashing every few minutes.

Naturally this behavior to anyone (particularly to a Mac user where crashes
are few and far between)  is totally unacceptable so back onto the
machine went VLC media Player, it was listening to both that I make the
following observations.

Firstly, VLC does a far better job ad decoding media such as MP3 etc, you
can hear the differences quite distinctly.

Controls are similar to those presented in Winamp and in a lot of ways, VLC
is easier to use with a screen reader, not as cluttered as Winamp seems to
be.

I've been using VLC on the Mac for ages but haven't had too much experience
with it on the PC, the command set is slightly different but that's probably
due mainly to differences in the keyboard layout between Mac and Trashbox
Windows PC. For example, you go to previous and next tracks in VLC under the
Mac using command-left and command-right arrow respectively, on the PC
version you use P and N on the keyboard

If anyone would like to give this excellent little media player a try then
use your friend Google and look for "vlc", you'll have no trouble finding
it. Takes up a lot less space than Winamp does plus it will play just about
everything you can throw at it, including Cue and Wave/FLAC pairs.

The website, although it's not easy to find the download link, does give
plenty of detail as to what types of audio and video formats it supports.
I'm pretty sure switch doesn't do flv files that's why I use this over
switch, but I haven't  really compared them more then that.

Re: Apple IPOD Shuffle and Setting it up

Or,

Head to the blind IPOD user page and download rebuild.exe for free.

Once you have formatted your shuffle you can blow away Itunes if you want 
and just use rebuild to verify your music folder.

Hi Jardata,
to get the shuffle to work, you must format it for windows, and buy Anapod
to put audio file on it to play.
The Anapod for the shuffle will cost $19.00, and the universal will cost
$29.00.

Hello Lists!

One of the guys on this list mentioned a program called Rebuild.exe which 
can be used to make an I-Pod Shuffle accessible and this person said you 
could get this program from the Blind I-Pod Users Page.  Could someone tell 
me where this site is located (URL) and/or how I could get this rebuild.exe 
program, along with the Anapod and similar programs.

I want to be able to manipulate and put songs on and off the I-Pod Shuffle.

Also, if someone knows of one, a program to use on a Sandisk MP3 player 
would be nice too.  Similar stuff as the I-Pod.

It's very loud with clean power.  The voltage switch is on the bottom I'd

I will soon be the owner of one of these units.
The Panasonic rx-ed50
I purchased it threw sams store in Illinois and now what I would like to
know is.
What will have to change with the radio once I get it if anything?
I mean will I have to change the voltage so that I can use it hear in the
united states or is that already done for the ones that they sell hear in
the united states?
If I will have to adjust that do I do this before plugging it in or is it
okay to plug the unit in first and then change the voltage setting on it?
Now if I do have to change it where do I find the place to change it?
For those that have this boom box do you like the way it sounds and does it
give you the power that you wouldn't find in a regular boom box?
Also how is the distortion on this unit?
I mean can you get it pretty loud before it start to distort on you or does
it handle very nicely at loud volumes?
I understand that this isn't a stereo but from what I have heard about the
unit.
I got the impression that it will go nicely loud and have nice sound and
make good recordings off of cd's to tapes quite nicely and have a good tape
off of that cd as well.
So all assistance with this unit will be a big help and thank you all ahead
of time for any assistance that I may get hear on the list.

Sometime ago I heard of a hardware product that I think plugs into the USB

Re: recomandations for a good speaker system

2006-10-16 Thread Keith Gillard
Hi,

I have only researched the Gigaworks line from Creative.  Just about all the 
opinions and reviews I have read indicate that the 5.1 and especially the 
7.1 systems are excellent.
Note that with the 7.1 configuration you will need an eight channel sound 
card to utilize it effectively.  With 700 watts of combined power you will 
definitely rock your world.  especially great for gaming but maybe 8 
channels is a bit of overkill for MP3 usage.  Also, the unit is cost 
prohibitive at #$400 US and up plus shipping.  The complete package ways in 
at a hefty 70 pounds there abouts.

Re: Is there such a thing as a blind friendly player that playsbothRAXand Wma/drm files?

2006-10-20 Thread Keith Gillard
Take a look at the Creative Muvo TXFM.  Great little flash player that is 
simple and supports WMA DRM and MP3.  Possible it supports OGG but won't say 
for sure cause I don't know.  I doubt you will find a player that will 
support WMA & RA because they are competing formats.

Well, I'd just like to find a reasonably priced, and reasonably blind
friendly portable mp3 player that uses direct plug n play for hooking up to
a pc, rather than proprietory software.  I don't care if it plays RA, or wma
really, since I do everything in mp3, although, if it does ogg, I guess I
won't complain, but, not something I'd expect for a reasonably priced
player.  What I mean by reasonably blind friendly, is that one can do more
than just use the play, rewind and fast forward with some ease.  It doesn't
have to be a talking product to be user friendly.

so annoyed I have to spend anything at all to have separate players for
separate formats.  I don't care much about the FM.  Thanks!

Re: "I tune, how friendly is it with Jaws now days?"

2006-10-21 Thread Keith Gillard
Also,

Rebuild is a very sweet little tool that will allow you to add and play 
music without Itunes.  Note that you will still need to have Itunes 
installed on your computer to initially prepare your new IPOD and to select 
the show disk in my computer.  After that you won't even need to load it to 
use rebuild.x

Hi Az

I'm afraid the news isn't good regarding Itunes.  There are scripts 
available, but they do not make all of Itunes available.  Personally, after 
hours of trying to get the scripts to work, I decided I had better things to 
do with my time.  I am using Napster and Anapod Explorer.  Anapod allows you 
to view the music on your ipod and move songs around.  You can look at 
Anapod Explorer at Redchairsoftware.com.

Good Luck,

Does putting the DRM-capable firmware back get the capability back? Or does
the Rockbox site really mean permanent when they say that flashing their
software to a 3x series Iriver destroys DRM capability in the sense that
reverting back won't restore that ability.

I'm wondering if any of you Jaws users have been successful using

very Flash-intensive and I found that it was crashing Jaws when I
tried to close the player window.  I really like many of the
stations, and they actually played just fine, but when I tried to
close my browser after listening, it crashed on a consistent basis
every time.  I am using Jaws version 7.0, not the latest version, but
would gladly upgrade if that would solve my problem.  Any insights
you can provide would be most appreciated.

The R-1 didn't offer fast forward and rewind with sound. The one of the
R-09 is one of the best I've ever heard on a recorder: When fast
forwarding or rewinding, the sounds one hears are very close together,
no big gaps as with some other recorders. The recorder first moves
relatively fast, faster than a Minidisc recorder, but one can hear a lot
of the music through which one moves. After one has held the button for
a couple of songs, the R-09 gets faster! faster! faster! until one only
hears one or two bits for each song. I think this is really great! If I
just want to go to the next song or want to hear what the DJ says
between the songs of a recorded radio show or music Podcast, the first
cuing speed is great, but if I want to go forward or backward an hour or
two, I keep holding the button and the accelerated cuing moves me to the
desired position quickly.

Another fine thing is the peak LED. At first I thought, it was a little
scratch on the unit, but when somebody told me, that this is a peak LED,
I tried whether I could hear it light up with my light probe. And indeed,
this works quite well. I can check, whether the recording level is too
high for a source, by listening to the peak LED with my light probe.

 Judy!  I've been watching your question here.  I called Roland today
with this question and they told me that the settings are lost when the R-09
looses power.  That being said I wouldn't be convinced until you hear it
from a real R-09 user.
 I'm not sure how much of a problem that loosing the settings would be
because it's reported to be so user friendly.
 If you want an R-09 I have them in stock and I have the best price I
know of.  I advertise $399 but personal inquiries may result in a better
price.

Hi Keith.  I'm still looking.  We all keep looking for the unit that is just
right.
*Well rockbox rules for the MP3 and OGG koddex.  You won't see WmA anytime 
soon.  The Devs are intelectually opposed to DRM or any other propriatory 
Koddex.

One thing I don't like about my model is that it is something called MTP or
media transfer protocol.  So, it doesn't normally show up as a storage
device in windows without a little trick.  This means I normally would need
to use Windows Media Player or another media player that supports
synchronization to get music on the player.  I have been messing around with
WMP for days trying to move tracks on to the player with lousy results.  I
just don't know what I'm doing wrong.  I do know that Jaws doesn't see the
synchronize dialog very well.

* I can only assume that your trying to sink WMA and or DRM Plays for sure 
right?  I'm really shocked that the unit won't show up as an additional 
drive letter under my computer.  Are you running XP?  If so, you don't need 
to install the accompanying software that came with your player.  I have an 
Iriver IHP-140 running rockbox and it's simpkle copy and paste.

Let us know how it turns out...Keith

Today, Edirol will release version 1.1 of the R-09 firmware. I haven't
updated yet, but according to the readme file, this shouldn't be a
problem for blind people, because one doesn't have to use a menu to do
it.

The most important new feature is SDHC compatibility. The Edirol R-09
now works with the new SDHC cards. SDHC is the name of the new SD card
specification 2.0, which standardizes the new SD card capacities from 4
to 32 gigabytes. There are none SDHC cards of 4 gigs available, but it's
proberbly much safer to use an SDHC card, and I've already seen eight
gigabytes SDHC cards. Somebody already has uploaded the firmware to a
yousendit address and at taperssection.com, a couple of people have used
this firmware to successfully update their Edirol recorder:

Judy, you wrote:
Michael  you wrote:


> Michael, do the menus wrap?

I had the 660 for two weeks and after reading the manual, I made the
following decision:

The 660 uses three profiles, in which every menu item is set. One can
set a recording source, automatic or manual recording level control,
recording quality and lots of other things in these profiles. Switching
between the three profiles is easy, one only has to go to the first menu
item and in it, one can do that. But making all the settings for each
profile is difficult for a blind person. I asked somebody sighted to do
that for me. After it, I only switched from profile to profile and
therefore don't know, whether the menus wrap or not.

*To me that's highly significant.  If I am interpreting what your saying 
here, once you have the settings for each program adjusted to your tates you 
then just need to select the profile you want to record to and your good to 
go.
To me that seems more blind friendly then starteing from scratch every time?

Re: Macromedia Flash

Hi,

If you are using jfw why not just go into configuration options and under 
HTML go to the advanced tab and choose ignore flash on websites.  It won't 
solve your problem with the player but you should be able to read the 
Panasonic site.  That's assuming of course you are using jaws.

BTW:  I don't remember seeing your post of one week ago.

Hi all.  I posed this question to the PC Audio list over two weeks ago, but 
got no response.  This concerns Macromedia Flash.  This should be a pc audio 
related issue, because there is some audio related to flash content; but if 
it's not related to pc audio, please let me know:  I had the flash player 
installed with this computer, I believe; and subsequently, I came across a 
program that I'm trying to use, and the instructions said that I may have to 
uninstall the flash player; so I did that, thinking that it might solve that 
problem; but actually, it didn't.  Now, I came across a website which I was 
able to traverse with no problem, the Panasonic.com website; but now, I 
can't do that because they use flash content.  I tried to download and 
reinstall the flash player by going to macromedia.com, but the website won't 
let me do that there.  I read on their site that flash is installed with 
Windows XP, but is there another way I can get that back, without having to 
reinstall Windows.  I
 think that would be a drastic step.  Someone told me that maybe something 
got put into the registry that won't let me do that.  Help!  Please!  Then 
maybe I won't be so cranky.  Anyway, thanks for any help you can give me, 
regardless!

Hi everyone,

I haven't sent an email to this list for ages, but I really feel I have to

Michael Lang, a really friendly guy who helped many of us with many pc-audio
concerned problems, died recently.

Unfortunately I didn't know im personally.

But I had to learn from from reliable sources that  apparently he hanged
himself a couple of days ago.

I am so very sorry, and I sencerely regret not having thanked him more for
all his help and support and I am very, very  sad that he passed away!

May he rest in peace.

Please appologise my clumsy language! I really think that we've lost a very
valluable friend!

Take care,
Alex

Re: need mp3 player suggestion.

2008-03-20 Thread Keith Gillard
Hi,

Rock box is open source thus it's free.

Check out the deal at www.rockbox.org

Another great multi purpose unit is the Victor Steam from Humanware:
www.humanware.ca

It's not cheap but it does it all:

It also has an internal speaker which has been improved with the release of 
the latest firmware.

Many other non speaking units are available.

I hear that the creative Zenstone is a decent player at  a good price.

Good luck.

Subject: Michael Lang


I'm very behind on my list mail due to travel, so have only now just read
the tragic news of Michael's death and would very much like to pay my
respects.



It was my great honour to get to know Michael when he contacted me with a
view to submitting reviews for Main Menu back in 2002. Michael had quite a
pronounced German accent, and he was very conscious of this, wondering if he
really was good enough to submit reviews in English for Main Menu. I assured
him he didn't have to worry. When I heard the first review he sent me, on
the Plextalk PTR1, I was amazed! His command of the English language was
outstanding. When he put a review together, it was unbelievably thorough,
and scrupulously fair.



Michael was, to many of us, the authority when it came to the intricacies
and particulars of many portable music and DAISY players. He would give
generously of his time and his information to help all of us. It was like he
was an encyclopedia on the subject, which he very much made his specialty.



I got to know Michael more personally when he was kind enough to help me
with the German BrailleNote I was working on in 2003. The fact that he was
such a good English speaker as well as a native German speaker, and that he
wasn't afraid to be candid about product deficits, made him invaluable.



Michael would tell me sometimes that he had dreadful trouble keeping a
regular sleep pattern, something which impacts on many of us who are blind
and don't have light perception. It was so bad that he said he felt it
really had an impact on employability for him. He was unassuming, perhaps
even lacking in confidence. But he was a very smart and giving man.



I'm deeply shocked by his passing, and can only say that I'm privileged to
have worked and talked with him.



I hope we will remember Michael by giving freely of our knowledge as he did,
and also by making a fresh commitment to look out for each other. Maybe if
we all take time to listen to one another's stories, to reach out, to be
sensitive to one another's needs and struggles, then just maybe we can offer
hope at a time when someone truly needs it.



I'll miss him very much.



Jonathan

Hi,

Well your right.  You used to be able use it to convert to WMA using the

You can still use DeepProRam to convert Audible files.

But this was more then 3 years ago.
I didn't care to much for Sound Taxi back then because of the accessibility

They have gotten a whole lot better at addressing accessibility problems for

Yes Bobcat!

A fantastic little toy that in my opinion, smokes the shuffle for sure!

Subject: Zen Stone 2GB with speaker


I am really impressed with this little guy.  Got one and fell in love with
the little darling.  Hooked up my nice Sennheiser PX100 headphones and
discovered the sound on all music to be jaw dropping good.  The little
speaker is also amazing for something so darn small.  Noticed it even sounds
better if you place fingers over the headphone and USB sockets.

I Got the Zen Stone 2GB mainly for talking books on the road so the very
good sound quality is a total bonus.

Like the included silicone sleeve and clip.  Found I can easily wind excess
headphone wire around the body and secure under the clip while still being
able to attach to clothing.  Nice!

Going to pick up another one.  Hope future models are as good.

Bob

OK here's the real scoop!
1) ZennStone 
2) ZennStone 2GB with speaker
3) ZennStone Plus!
4) ZennStone Plus with Speaker

The Plus refers to an LCD screen, FM radio and voice recorder.
Note that there is a 4Gb model availble right from the Creative website!

Fw: Stream NewsWire - Version 2.0 Software Released

2008-06-30 Thread Keith Gillard


Dear Victor Reader Stream Customer:

HumanWare has released the latest Stream software version 2.0.3. This is a 
free software upgrade that can be downloaded and installed on your Stream. 
To download the software visit:

http://www.humanware.com/en-canada/support/vr_stream_software

Select the link to download the new software version 2.0. On the same page, 
you will also find a Release Notes document describing in detail what's new 
and the installation instructions. Briefly,to install follow these steps:

- Download the software zip file

- Unzip the single UPG upgrade file from the zip file. You do not need 
special unzip software. Simply press Enter to open the zip file and you can 
then select the UPG file.

- Copy this UPG file to the root of your Stream SD card.

- Disconnect the Stream from the computer, connect it to AC power and turn 
it on.

- The Stream will automatically start the update process which takes about 1 
minute during which time it will announce intermittent "please Wait" 
messages. The Stream will power off when the new software is installed.

- You may then remove the UPG file from the SD card.

After the new software is installed, the Release Notes document will also be 
available in a HumanWare sub-folder of your Text Bookshelf so you may read 
the Release Notes with your Stream. Highlights of the new version 2.0 
include:

- New dedicated bookshelf to save downloaded podcast audio files

- Audible books will now be announced on its own bookshelf instead of Other 
Books bookshelf

- Support of electronic Braille (BRF) files placed on the text bookshelf

- Support for Rich Text Format (RTF) files on the text bookshelf

- Support for unprotected Windows Media Audio (WMA version 9)

- Spell mode for text files

- Ability to disable key beeps and sleep messages

and much more. See the Release Notes document on the Stream page for a 
complete description of all new features and improvements. A copy of the 
version 2.0 User Guide as well as an updated FAQ document (frequently asked 
questions) can also be found on the web page. The FAQ provides answers to 
frequently asked questions about battery, important information on different 
book and media formats, voice recording, and SD cards.

With this announcement, version 2.0 is available in English only. As other 
version 2.0 languages become available they will be posted on the same

described in a second email.

Hi

As I said in my previous message, the media section of the player
includes a number of radio stations, podcast and audio books you can
listen to right from within the player. It also allows you to send
and receive private messages, sort of like IMs, and every user gets
their own Microblog, or at least that's what it's called.  You can
also play a dice poker game on it, and this is only the beginning.
and as I said before this is all self-voicing, no screenreader required.

May I make a short comment within this thread?

Here in the Uk the Talking newspaper for the Blind charity, and now Wireless
for the Blind Fund -Yes, it's really called that! - are distributing the
Orion web radio but many here are less impressed.

Seems the voice tagging of the stations you can get iss handeld centrally
and so the stations you can actually reciev ge restricted to HQ's decisions.

I think we are waiting for a better solution that uses TTS and allows for
far more choice of stations than the very small selection on offer from
provider organisations.

(I'd be interested to hear if this is in fact different in the US
implementations of the web box.)

Ray.
