Problem Contacting Skype (sorry if off topic)

2007-12-08 Thread Samuel Wilkins
Hello, I am sorry if this is off topic, but I am having a problem contacting 
skype to report a problem. I fill in the subject, message, name, email address, 
skype name, skype version and language but when it asks for a topic, the edit 
box can not be seen by Window Eyes. I pressed enter on one of the links, but it 
didn't work. What is happening?

I have downloaded a plugin to achieve this. It also reckons it plays dvds, 
but I haven't tried it yet. It certainly works  with avi files.
If anyone needs it, apply to me off-list, and I'll put it up at sendspace.

 no solutions other then using another player like vlc.
 I guess we can try looking at the winamp forums at winamp.com I assume 
 they

 I first noticed this over a year and a halfago, so it's ongoing through

It's recording capabilities are limited.  It's really meant to record notes 
and has an internal microphone as well as an external mic jack.
Where it excels as far as I'm concerned is it's ability to play audible 
files at variable speed.  It also needs no special software to copy files to 
it unlike similar units.

 Yep, that is a bit surprising, I mean 64 meg cards for example aren't
 exactly what one would call expensive are they.
 Now can someone tell us more about the reader as I'm thinking of
 getting myself one next year, what formats does it record in? Does the
 reader have a line-in jack or facility? At present I have my mind set
 on either the Zoom h2 or h4 recorder but if there's something a little
 more accessible out there then I'd be interested to hear about it, the
 Zoom doesn't have synthesized speech or anything but there are plenty
 of blind people out there using them as evidenced from the reviews on

Re: Os 10.5 Leopard, some people are having problem it seems

2007-12-08 Thread Kevin Lloyd
Dane, this isn't a list for operating systems or screen reader discussions 
but you've mentioned some interesting applications here.  Might be useful to 
expand on how you're using these applications.  That is, are you totally 
blind and completely relying on voice over or have some small amount of 
sight to get you round some difficulties when necessary or partially sighted 
and using screen magnification.

I think the take up of Macs is about 5% compared to windows so there may 
only be yourself using a mac on this list but it may be useful to others to 
know if the operating system and these applications are totally accessible 
to a blind person using voice over in case someone goes for a change from 
windows and ends up with a pup that they can't fully use.

Subject: Os 10.5 Leopard, some people are having problem it seems


 Hi everyone!
 So how are you all going with Leopard, everything running smoothly is
 it? According to the technology columns in my local paper yesterday,
 the transition from Tiger to Leopard for many Mac owners has been less
 than smooth.
 The writers point out that the first problem which seems to occur is a
 Blue Screen when Leopard is installed and the system restarts. Well
 that's an interesting point because when I installed Leopard onto my
 Imac, I wasn't able to reboot the machine but I did have a faulty
 machine at the time so I wouldn't take too much notice of my experience.
 I've installed Leopard on 2 computers here, my Macbook and a friends
 g4 Ibook and both installs went without a hitch but I'd be lying if I
 said that I haven't had a few teething problems with a couple of
 pieces of software, the one which comes to mind is Audio Hijack Pro.
 This software may require you to download extra modules depending on
 how you use the software, for example if you want to instantly hijack
 an application such as Real Player, VLC, Itunes or Quicktime, without
 this plug-in Audio Hijack Pro has to re-launch the application you're
 trying to hijack before you can proceed. So to put this into context,
 suppose you're listening to BBC7 on the Internet through Real Audio
 Player and you decide you like what you're hearing so you launch Audio
 Hijack Pro in order to hijack and record the output of Real audio,
 Select Real Audio from the sessions table and press the Hijack button.
 Audio Hijack Pro then comes up with a warning message telling you that
 Real Audio player has to be re-launched before Hijacking can take
 place, as you can see this sanario  is extremely annoying but that's
 exactly what happens without the Instant Hijack plug-in installed.
 On my systems here and another that a friend and I have tried, Audio
 Hijack Pro (whilst acknowledging that the Instant Hijack plug-in is
 available) will not give you the status, that is whether its installed
 or uninstalled  but its safe to say I think that uninstalled ins the
 likely status smile. I've written to the developers about this so I
 hope we see some action before too long.
 That's the only really big annoyance I've had to put up with since
 installing Leopard, all my other favourite applications such as Nisus
 Writer Pro (the word processing package I use), Transmit (the FTP
 client I use) all have released updates to cope with Leopard.
 so here's another question. We all know that Leopard was in beta mode
 for quite some considerable time (unless I'm very much mistaken at
 least 12 months or more) so why are these software developers so
 behind when it comes to releasing updates for Leopard? Adobe for
 example doesn't have any plans to release updates for Acrobat or Photo
 Shop until the new year.

Yes there is a tutorial on the cd that comes with the unit. The unit is also 
very easy to use so I think you will pick it up quickly.
I will warn you the unit doesn't come with a card so you will have to buy 
one.
I just bought 2 four gig s d cards from J  R for $29 each so they aren't 
expensive.
It was a surprise to me though when the unit came and there was no card in 
it.

A 320kbps mp3 file is good but not as good as a lossless format like wav, 
flac or lossless wma.  You may only notice the short comings of mp3 when you 
play music back through a good hifi system.  Of course, if you've ripped all 
your music to mp3 then it'll be too late to get that quality back unless you 
rip all over again.

I'm a firm believer that in the future everyone will use lossless music with 
very cheap storage and broadband being widespread and so I wouldn't want to 
back myself into that mp3 corner.  It sounds great on portables and on the 
computer but lacks highs and lows, midrange detail and has a general boxed 
in kind of sound in comparison to lossless formats.

High Kevin,
I agree with you 150%.
At the risk of repeating myself, MP3's are ok, but they sound grainy on 
vacuum tube audio equipment.
I don't know about all the other audio file types you spoke of, but I am 
looking for an ipod that will play WMA lossless and WAV audio files.
Because I will be jacking this in to a tube amp that I will build from an S5 
electronic kit.
I will be building my own speakers.
So that I will have something really nice to listen to in my office at work.
MP3's are for some or most people, but I don't thank it's for me.

Re: Os 10.5 Leopard, some people are having problem it seems

2007-12-08 Thread Dane Trethowan
Well actually, I was debating whether or not to post the original  
message here in the first place because it was a little off-topic but  
I decided to post the message because one of the software packages  
affected was Audio Hijack Pro so hereafter I'll talk about Audio  
Hijack Pro rather than specifically discussing Leopard, if anyone  
would like to discuss Leopard further then I'll put some links to  
other mailing lists near the end of the message.
So what is Audio Hijack Pro? Well put simply, its an all purpose  
recording application, that is you can Hijack a source or multiple  
sources, mix them together, record them, process them (by adding other  
affects, removing noise etc), use an external sound editing programme  
to edit your recordings launching that Editor from Audio Hijack Pro,  
schedule recording times and last but not least, burn the finished  
product to CD or DVD so if you like, Audio Hijack Pro can be best  
described as Total Recorder taking performance enhancing drugs.
One of the main things I use this application for is to record Skype  
phone calls if I have to, this can be don very easily, just select  
skype from the table presenting all the Audio Hijack sessions you've  
set up, press the Hijack button and then the Record button.
Audio Hijack Pro can Hijack specific applications or other hardware  
sources, for example you may wish to Hijack Itunes which could be  
playing a preset playlist of musical tracks whilst you hijack a  
hardware mixer and then perhaps Hijack Skype into the mix, you can  
then record your hijacked combination and so forth.
Now in the original message I sent regarding Leopard, I mentioned the  
problems I was having with Audio Hijack Pro under Leopard, since I  
sent that message the developers have returned my email, they've told  
me that an update for Leopard is being worked on right now and should  
be available for public distribution in a few days so I hope that this  
update will sort things out.
Is Audio Hijack Pro available for the PC? Unfortunately not but it  
would be nice if it were.
Is Audio Hijack Accessible under VoiceOver? certainly its very  
accessible and there are some very well-known people using Audio  
Hijack Pro to record regular podcasts and so on, you'll see some very  
familiar names at http://www.blindcooltech.com who use this software  
for their productions. I'm totally blind and I have no problems with  
accessing the software, VoiceOver has facilities to help those who  
have a little sight to navigate the Mac and associated applications.
Ok, for those who wish to find out more about Leopard and VoiceOver's  
many features perhaps you could subscribe to the mac-access list, send  
a blank email message to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Finally regarding the Mac's market share? Well yep, its about 8%  
actually and I don't think Leopard will ever be a dominant force in  
the marketplace but if you are considering another computer then the  
Mac and Leopard offer you a whole heap of advantages over present-day  
PC technology, Audio is just one area in which the Mac excells plus  
you can run your Windows systems concurrently if you want to.

 Hi everyone!
 So how are you all going with Leopard, everything running smoothly is
 it? According to the technology columns in my local paper yesterday,
 the transition from Tiger to Leopard for many Mac owners has been  
 less
 than smooth.
 The writers point out that the first problem which seems to occur  
 is a
 Blue Screen when Leopard is installed and the system restarts. Well
 that's an interesting point because when I installed Leopard onto my
 Imac, I wasn't able to reboot the machine but I did have a faulty
 machine at the time so I wouldn't take too much notice of my  
 experience.
 I've installed Leopard on 2 computers here, my Macbook and a friends

Voice Recorders was The Victor Reader

2007-12-08 Thread Dane Trethowan
I don't think anyone did, I heard that it could record so I was  
wondering what sort of recording capacity the reader had.
Incidentally talking about recorders, I notice that the Olympus range  
of Recorders (Voice Recorders to be more accurate) got a very good  
review in our local newspaper last Thursday as compared to the new  
Sony offering. One of the drawbacks with the Sony was that it used its  
own proprarity audio encoding and you needed extra software to  
transfer and decode the audio to make it compatible for playing on a  
PC. Further to this the Sony model (whilst it could be connected to a  
PC) did not function as an external drive meaning that once again,  
extra software had to be used to make it act this way, no Mac software  
exists for the Sony recorder of course.

RE: Voice Recorders was The Victor Reader

I was told by the vendor that the bit rate was very low and not adjustable.
I listened to it and everyone has there own definition of quality, but all

basic notes.

Subject: Voice Recorders was The Victor Reader


I don't think anyone did, I heard that it could record so I was
wondering what sort of recording capacity the reader had.
Incidentally talking about recorders, I notice that the Olympus range
of Recorders (Voice Recorders to be more accurate) got a very good
review in our local newspaper last Thursday as compared to the new
Sony offering. One of the drawbacks with the Sony was that it used its
own proprarity audio encoding and you needed extra software to
transfer and decode the audio to make it compatible for playing on a
PC. Further to this the Sony model (whilst it could be connected to a
PC) did not function as an external drive meaning that once again,
extra software had to be used to make it act this way, no Mac software
exists for the Sony recorder of course.

Subject: Re: Os 10.5 Leopard, some people are having problem it seems


 Well actually, I was debating whether or not to post the original
 message here in the first place because it was a little off-topic but
 I decided to post the message because one of the software packages
 affected was Audio Hijack Pro so hereafter I'll talk about Audio
 Hijack Pro rather than specifically discussing Leopard, if anyone
 would like to discuss Leopard further then I'll put some links to
 other mailing lists near the end of the message.
 So what is Audio Hijack Pro? Well put simply, its an all purpose
 recording application, that is you can Hijack a source or multiple
 sources, mix them together, record them, process them (by adding other
 affects, removing noise etc), use an external sound editing programme
 to edit your recordings launching that Editor from Audio Hijack Pro,
 schedule recording times and last but not least, burn the finished
 product to CD or DVD so if you like, Audio Hijack Pro can be best
 described as Total Recorder taking performance enhancing drugs.
 One of the main things I use this application for is to record Skype
 phone calls if I have to, this can be don very easily, just select
 skype from the table presenting all the Audio Hijack sessions you've
 set up, press the Hijack button and then the Record button.
 Audio Hijack Pro can Hijack specific applications or other hardware
 sources, for example you may wish to Hijack Itunes which could be
 playing a preset playlist of musical tracks whilst you hijack a
 hardware mixer and then perhaps Hijack Skype into the mix, you can
 then record your hijacked combination and so forth.
 Now in the original message I sent regarding Leopard, I mentioned the
 problems I was having with Audio Hijack Pro under Leopard, since I
 sent that message the developers have returned my email, they've told
 me that an update for Leopard is being worked on right now and should
 be available for public distribution in a few days so I hope that this
 update will sort things out.
 Is Audio Hijack Pro available for the PC? Unfortunately not but it
 would be nice if it were.
 Is Audio Hijack Accessible under VoiceOver? certainly its very
 accessible and there are some very well-known people using Audio
 Hijack Pro to record regular podcasts and so on, you'll see some very
 familiar names at http://www.blindcooltech.com who use this software
 for their productions. I'm totally blind and I have no problems with
 accessing the software, VoiceOver has facilities to help those who
 have a little sight to navigate the Mac and associated applications.
 Ok, for those who wish to find out more about Leopard and VoiceOver's
 many features perhaps you could subscribe to the mac-access list, send
 a blank email message to:
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Finally regarding the Mac's market share? Well yep, its about 8%
 actually and I don't think Leopard will ever be a dominant force in
 the marketplace but if you are considering another computer then the
 Mac and Leopard offer you a whole heap of advantages over present-day
 PC technology, Audio is just one area in which the Mac excells plus
 you can run your Windows systems concurrently if you want to.

It's recording capabilities are limited.  It's really meant to record notes

Where it excels as far as I'm concerned is it's ability to play audible

 It's recording capabilities are limited.  It's really meant to record 
 notes
 and has an internal microphone as well as an external mic jack.
 Where it excels as far as I'm concerned is it's ability to play audible
 files at variable speed.  It also needs no special software to copy files 
 to
 it unlike similar units.

 Yep, that is a bit surprising, I mean 64 meg cards for example aren't
 exactly what one would call expensive are they.
 Now can someone tell us more about the reader as I'm thinking of
 getting myself one next year, what formats does it record in? Does the
 reader have a line-in jack or facility? At present I have my mind set
 on either the Zoom h2 or h4 recorder but if there's something a little
 more accessible out there then I'd be interested to hear about it, the
 Zoom doesn't have synthesized speech or anything but there are plenty
 of blind people out there using them as evidenced from the reviews on
 them at http://www.blindcooltech.com

problem with CDEX

2007-12-08 Thread Terra Syslo
I am having a problem with retrieving the data for disks when I run CDEX. I
am running 1.51, and every time I go to get the track listing so I can copy
the audio tracks I get a message that says a connection could not be made
because the target machine actively refused it. Winamp pulls up the track
listings, but I can't figure how to get those into CDEX without going
through and manually renaming each track. This just started happening a
couple weeks ago, and it happens with every disk I try.

Re: CDEX is great!

2007-12-08 Thread GianniP46
I swear guys,  320 for me as a D.J. who is playing standards and top 40 stuff 
is good enough.  I really can't hear a difference.  Yes, under 192 depending on 
the song things can start to get grainy.  Now that is an interesting discussion 
because one song at 192 can sound great, but another song ripped at 192 sounds 
crappy.

 Haven't been following threads on this because I didn't have one, but 
 I'm
 getting one soon and need to know some things about it.  First, will 
 this
 come with accessible instructions?  Second, is there a tutorial on it
 somewhere so I can learn in detail what to do and how to operate it?  If
 not then I'll have lots of questions for the group (smile), but just
 wondered if there's a good tutorial.  And if someone can tell me this,
 how
 much music or about how many gigs is on the SD card provided?  Thanks.

Re: Voice Recorders was The Victor Reader

2007-12-08 Thread Michael Lang
Dane, All in all, I also prefer the Olympus DS-50, when one compares it with
the Sony ICD-SX67. However, the 67 offers real line-in recording, so
that one can record radio talkshows with it easily. When one connects
it to a PC, it becomes a regular drive and one can use any file
manager to copy MP3 files onto it, which the Sony will play. Most of
the menu items are adjustable with the supplied Sony Voice Editor,
which is screenreader friendly. Yes, the recording format is
proprietary, but one can easily convert recordings to MP3 with Voice
Editor and when one divides a recording on the ICD-SX67, there's no
gap between the parts. If one does that on the Edirol R-09 for
instance, one can clearly hear a gap.

 Incidentally talking about recorders, I notice that the Olympus range  
 of Recorders (Voice Recorders to be more accurate) got a very good  
 review in our local newspaper last Thursday as compared to the new  
 Sony offering. One of the drawbacks with the Sony was that it used its  
 own proprarity audio encoding and you needed extra software to  
 transfer and decode the audio to make it compatible for playing on a  
 PC. Further to this the Sony model (whilst it could be connected to a  
 PC) did not function as an external drive meaning that once again,  
 extra software had to be used to make it act this way, no Mac software  
 exists for the Sony recorder of course.

 Yep, that is a bit surprising, I mean 64 meg cards for example
 aren't
 exactly what one would call expensive are they.
 Now can someone tell us more about the reader as I'm thinking
 of
 getting myself one next year, what formats does it record in?
 Does the
 reader have a line-in jack or facility? At present I have my
 mind set
 on either the Zoom h2 or h4 recorder but if there's something a
 little
 more accessible out there then I'd be interested to hear about
 it, the
 Zoom doesn't have synthesized speech or anything but there are
 plenty
 of blind people out there using them as evidenced from the
 reviews on
 them at http://www.blindcooltech.com
