I have the loan of a Plextalk pocket whilst my V RS is in for repair.

I have followed the instructions for streaming webradio on the device. 
The device has picked up my woreless modem but does not recognise the

Good question.
There are online services which seem to be professional outfits which 
will do professional translation of your MP3 to text.
There is however another service I found where you can upload a file 
and have the service collate a text file for you, a translation of 
your MP3 to download, actually you can upload in multiple formats, Ogg 
and Wave being amongst them.
The service will only work in English and accuracy of the translation 
is not guaranteed.

I didn't find any "stand-alone" tools to do this sort of thing.

Daisy Players? I haven't used one of those things in a damn long time.

Now before everyone gets upset I should point out that my view is only a 
personal one and everyone's circumstances are different.

I get all my books these days from Apple's iBooks or I buy from Google or 
Amazon, I wonder where we'd be without those publishing houses, yep they're not 
perfect as we've discussed here but they do open the doors to a whole heap of 
information we never had before.

Daisy titles usually come from library's? That's fine if you like that sort of 
thing but if I want to read a title that's just come onto the market? Well I 
frown upon the idea of having to wait 6 months just to read it.

Now this is sound forge eight, so I don't know if this process holds good for
the version you are running.

Further, I seem to recall, that holding the shift key, as you use the arrow 
keys to move through a sound, didn't that used to select data?

Re: Flatbed scanner

[Andrea Sherry]

Hi! This is Andrea from Australia
I have an HP Officejet 6000 scanner. This is both flat bed and automatic 
document. It came with a no frills version of Readiris 14. Since then I 
have acqauired Readiris 14 pro which is excellent at 400 DPI Grey scale.
This scanner was relatively chep. I think I paid approx $140 Australian 
for this about 6 months ago.
The other advantage of this is that it van be run via Wifi so is 
available to all computers here bot PC and others (Apple/Android etc).

Cheers
Andrea

I have the Canon Lide 700F but that may be more than you need.

Remember that effective OCR is more dependent on the OCR software than the
scanner.  Just about any scanner can produce a grey scale 400 dots per inch
image, which is about the optimum for effective recognition.

I would suggest either the Canon Lide 110 or the Canon Image Formula 280
portable scanner.

Details of those  scanners are as follows:


Canon LIDE110 Flatbed Scanner - 2400x4800dpi, 48bit, Advanced Z-Lid - USB2.0
  
No fuss, fast scanning at an affordable price


2400 x 4800 dpi optical resolution with 48-bit colour depth for sharp,
accurate scans.
Four one-touch buttons Scan/Copy/PDF/E-mail for easy operation.
Compact and stylish design.
Scan multiple photos as once using Multi-Scan mode.
Single USB lead transfers data and provides power keeping your desk clutter
free.
Advanced Z-Lid accommodates scanning of bulky items such as books with ease.

Use scanner on either PC or Mac for stunning results.

Hey folks,
Just wondering because I need something that will remove silence from ends of 
audio files. The problem is that they’re AAC files. Audacity says it won’t do 
it. WavePad will do it, but in demo mode it won’t save my changes to them. The 
price of the software, “without VST plugins support nor SFX Library”, is $50 
until May 15. Has anyone here used this? The reason I took a look at it is 
because their Switch audio converter is very accessible, and it looks like this 
WavePad is also accessible. But for $50 I’m wondering if there’s a better 
choice. If anyone knows how WavePad stacks up against similarly priced software 
I’d be interested. I know that Sound Forge will also edit AAC files, but I 
think that is a bit beyond my price range at the moment.
Thanks for any guidance.

One thing than can be said about the new Victor Reader Stream is that it
has a far better speaker than the older model but then again, what
doesn't!

I'm looking at Daisy players at the moment, the Plextalk Pocket looks a
very attractive option still even though the processor isn't as good as
that found in the Stream, dealers tell me that still the firmware is far
better.

The Milestone is also something I'm considering, Bluetooth connectivity

just go beynd the bounds of common sense.


In Studio Recorder the exporting and saving of files is disabled, so 
far so good but the problem is that the Save As dialogue box is also 
disabled thus you have no idea what formats are available for you to 
export or save to unless you rummage through the Studio Recorder 
manual, a very bad oversight on behalf of the developers and perhaps 
this can be rectified in future demo editions of the Studio Recorder 
application.

Do you know where the converted files are supposed to go? When I installed
it, they were set by default to go to the Music folder, and I just left it
that way for the present to test it out. But that's in Windows Vista, that
may be different for different operating systems. But you can check on that
by simply tabbing through the buttons without even going into any menus.
Maybe it's converting and you just can't find the converted files. What
happens when you tell it to convert something? For me, it tells me what file

it is working on and the percentages every so often. If it does that for
you, then I would say that it's converting something, but you just may need
to check to see where it's putting the files it converts.

That's how I use Switch (for changing bit rate) but somehow I am just not
getting the hang of converting more than one file at a time!  It seemed to
do it but, well I don't even know how to explain!  Somehow it's not
converting; or maybe it is and I just don't know it!  Guess I just need
clearer instructions!  Even's instructions aren't bad; I guess I'm just

Hi Folks,
Well, on the recommendation of two people here yesterday, I went and

installed Switch. It's completely accessible with my Window Eyes 8.4;
almost
as though it was written that way, although I don't know that for sure.
It's
also simple and fast. There is a five files at a time limit on the free
version, but that is easy to work around. You can select and open many
more
than five files and then convert five at a time until you get them all.
However, for convenience, and because I think they deserve it for writing
such a simple and accessible product, I am probably going to buy it. It
says
that it will also extract audio from DVD's and video files, although I
haven't tried this yet. If that works as simply and accessibly as the
audio
conversions I've done so far, then that will make it even more worth the
price.

Thanks for putting me onto this.

Oh, by the way, Dane, VBR is not on the list of filetypes that Switch
will

convert to, so I guess I will continue with M4A.

I've found such a product it seems with the JBL J55I headphones.

They're a DJ style which means that one of the cans can be turned 180 degrees 
so that both cans cover 1 ear leaving the other to hear what's going on clearly in the

These cans sit on the ears which means I can use them both with or without

The cans have a control panel to control the volume and allow for the answering 
of phone calls, the control panel contains the microphone.

I'll give the list a further run down of the cans when I receive them.

Hi list, Merry Christmas.

Would anyone here know about the accessibility of the software from

software, if it works on Windows 7 64 bit machines.  If anyone's had 
experience using this, would you please give me some pointers for 
getting the best use from it?  Windows Media Player seems a bit tricky 
for setting up a playlist to burn to a CD; I use System Access for a 
screen reader but something's wrong with the Media Library in that it 
won't let me burn something to CD; Support can't help much in this 
case.  I have tried Digital Jukebox from Marvelsoft; in that case yes, 
I can make the playlist and then go to the Project menu and tell the 
program to burn the tracks to CD; a blank CD is in the drive, but when 
I hit the okay button after I'm given the total playing time for the 
tracks to burn the CD, the speech just goes silent and a message pops 
up that the dj.exe has stopped working and should be closed; I haven't 
heard back from their tech support yet, maybe tomorrow after 
Christmas. Meanwhile I'm wanting to find out more about Express Burn 
by NCH Software to find out if it's accessible with screen readers 
before I plunk down money for it.  Thanks in advance for any info you 
can give me on this; also if anyone has experience with Digital 
Jukebox by Marvelsoft I'm interested in learning about experiences 
people had using it.  thanks again and Merry Christmas.

Re: Is the NCH audio software accessible?

Well once you open the program and choose the type of cdrom you wish to 
create and press OK, then you will be presented with a screen with menu 
bar at top. press alt which will get you to file menu. (Alt-f will not 
work.) Arrow down this menu. You will find selections like select

I have put my collection of music on CD’s onto my PC now and given 
the CD’s to a local charity shop for what they can get for them. I 
have a set of Jazz recordings I purchased from Time-Life I cannot do 
this with as they are encrypted. Does anyone know how I can overcome 
this. I don’t want to pass on the copies so it will not infringe the 
copyright law just that it’s easier to have them on my PC to play.


Many thanks Roger

Re: vinyl extracting

[Andrea Sherry]

There are numbers of turntables with USB connection which would be suitable.
Then any sound editor (Audacity for example) could be used to record the 
audio from your lps using the USB as a sound source.
You might then use something like MP3DirectCut to split the extracted 
file to individual tracks.

Both Audacity and MP3DirectCut are freeware programs.

Re: DVD Burning Issue

How old is your burner?
How expensive are burners in your part of the world?
When burners of DVD came on the market here in Australia in the late 90s 
they were $5000. Now a burner can be had for about $40.
so if you can change the thing yourself then a new burner might be a 
proposition.

From: Scott Erichsen piano...@scotterichsen.com
To: vi...@softspeak.com.au

Hello to all,

After a while of working, we now have released Version 1.08 of MaPlEr.
We have added a lot of new features and we hope you'll enjoy them.
For this update please do not use the update feature of MaPlEr. Please
download the setup file from our homepage, and install it. This is
necessary because of integrating the CD-Ripping-Feature.

The direct download link is
http://www.odissa.de/php/CHCounter/getfile.php?id=10

a word about the conversion function:
to convert to MP3 files you have to download the program
lame.exe.
You can get it e.g. on this site
http://audio.ciara.us/rarewares/lame3.98.2.zip
Please unzip the file and copy
lame.exe
to the program folder, where you have installed MaPlEr.
Because of license laws we are not allowed to bundle lame.exe with our
program.
But if you download it your own, it's not illegal.

I'll attach the what's new list at the end of the mail.

Best regards from here and we are waiting for your feedback and hope
you'll have much fun with the new version!
Marco (Mar-dy-Team).

V1.08.0:
- Integrated the English help file.
- We have rapidly decreased the time to recognize the tracks
 of an audio CD.
- Assign shortcuts to all labels of the different
 dialog boxes.
- Extras | convert: with this feature you can convert
 several audio formats to another. With this dialog
 you can convert audio CD's to MP3 too.
 Please refer to our homepage for more information.
- If you insert an audio CD in your CD-ROM-Drive, you can select
 MaPlEr to play this CD right from this popup menu.
- If you have multiple sound cards you can switch between
 the soundcards. This can be done while MaPlEr is playing too.
- view | column settings: with this entry you can tell MaPlEr
 which columns should be shown and the width of each column.
 The order of the columns can be set here too.
- view | Display columns as one long row: this
 displays all the columns as one long row, without
 many spaces between. This setting is useful especially
 for use with a braille display.
- view | refresh: this refreshes the entries of the currently
 loaded play list.
- Player | player follows cursor: if you deactivate this entry
 you can navigate through the play list, without
 stopping the playback of the current track. If you
 want to listen to the track, which has
 the focus, you must explicitly play it by pressing
 the letter x.

 MaPlEr to play this CD right from this popup menu.

 which columns should be shown and the width of each column.
 The order of the columns can be set here too.

 displays all the columns as one long row, without
 many spaces between. This setting is useful especially
 for use with a braille display.

 you can navigate through the play list, without
 stopping the playback of the current track. If you

 the focus, you must explicitly play it by pressing
 the letter x.

I never heard of this file extension before, but my first hit on google.com 
lead me to http://filext.com/file-extension/3GP, where it said:


3GPP and 3GPP2 are the new worldwide standards for the creation, delivery 
and playback of multimedia over 3rd generation, high-speed wireless 
networks.
Defined by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project and 3rd Generation 
Partnership Project 2 respectively, these standards seek to provide 
uniform delivery
of rich multimedia over newly evolved, broadband mobile networks (3rd 
generation networks) to the latest multimedia-enabled wireless devices. 
3GPP and
3GPP2 are based on the MPEG-4 standard which was derived from Apple's 
QuickTime. QuickTime 6.5 includes support for key components of the 3GPP 
and 3GPP2

specifications. The Macintosh type is: 3GPP

So obviously, quicktime will play 3GP files. A little bit of checking 
revealed that quite a few of the audio/video converters will handle 3GP 
files including Switch and Replay Converter, the two that I'm familiar 
with.

.3gp is the standard use by the NLS to record talking books and magazines. 
It is also used by the Victor Stream Reader to record your own personal 
notes.  If you have the Victor Stream it comes with a CD containing 
companion software that will convert .3pg files into .wav and from there 
you can play them or convert them to .mp3 or .ogg etc.
