Re: stereo mix not working on realtech build in soundcard

[Aidan]

 Thank you David. Yes I am aware of that, but in this case it’s not the
issue because jaws  still did not came from as it was supposed to in the
recording. I just get silence. But yes it’s good to note that.

Re: stereo mix not working on realtech build in soundcard

[Aidan]

Well, I'm not sure what the content I record have to do with this, the
point is when stereo mix is active, it should record what it can here.
I am on a laptop with build in audio realtek and a USB headset. At one
point it did pick up jaws at least but now its dead silent.

[Aidan]

I have a laptop and so whenever I select the stereo mix option I just
get silents when recording. All the mute are uncheck and volumes up to
100.

Thank you so much.
Just too things:
Do you find that the build in mics go softer when they get loud
noises? That is not a good thing, and also, when you connect it to pc,
does it bring up options for choosing the audio sound cardt or storage
device? Such as olympus? How do you select them?

Re: zoom h1 recorder

Hamit, good idea there. They must get the message somehow.
So dain what do you do when setting the time and date? And I guess you

slide switch? Is wave the default?

zoom h1 recorder

[Aidan]

Hello.
Does anyone no if Neil did a podcast on this, if so, can you pass it on please?
Probibly the only zoom you can used with comfort?
I did email them before to ask if they can make their recorders
accessible, but they din't even answer me.
I guess no luck there.
I think they not aware of the importance of recording good quality for
us as well.
If they include human speech, they don't have to pay so much extra
costs such as olympus does with the dm7 since it uses tts.
And maybe a staff member will do it for free? who noes?

Re: Question about LS-14 digital recorder

[Aidan]

 Yes, you can change the playback speed as said above. Also, while
recording, you can press the F3 function button, and it will place a
bookmark for use silently.  When power off and on again, the playback speed
stays the same.

Re: Humanwear Victor Reader Stream Trek

[Aidan]

Yes, the button thing is great, but unfortunetly they did not change
enough hardware. The stream hardware is quite bad, and all they done
now is to change the procesor and remove the line in jac to make room
for the gps antenna.
They are lazy these days, come out with just a few updates once every
now and then, and then they brag on the fact that they have different
teams to work on different products wich are suppose to create the
impression that they have enough people to make it possible to work on
these things properly.
They also now will include an fm radio, wich is great,  but then
stream users is missing out, and its now unfairely expected that if
you don't want gps you should buy this thing to get blootooth, and the
fm radio. This probibly means that the treck will get more updates and
the other stream little or nothing and then they will suddenly
discontinue the stream for a new one later. They did the same before
with the older stream. After they discontinued it, they did not
provide updates for it to bring it inline with the new model, such as
to add the consolidate notes and repeat one track only features on the
notes and music bookshelfs respectively. All about money and they
don't care.
Its nice that this unit will have maps onboard, wich means no data
drain, but so little hardware change is unexceptible.

 There is nothing in the world wrong with a 320 k mp3 at 44.1 khz
 stereo.

 Listen on a good set of speakers and you will see.  Not as good as a
 lossless file for sure, but unless you're an audio snob, there's
 nothing wrong with it.

 and now that the license has expired, you'll see products that
 couldn't offer mp3 magicly gain the ability to encode to it.

Re: Victor Reader Stream 2nd Generation

[Aidan]

Kenni, It does not allow for online downloading of those books,
because its not mainly pushed to the US market and podcast need some
work, but what it can do, it can do very well. What is also the use of
having a player wich will alouw you to search data bases and download
bookshare and such but then they not always commited to the player? Or
they use bad hardware and make you pay fru your neck? This player is
3000 rand and not r7000 rand like the stream currently.

Andre, Anthony and his team cell them since last year.
Hamit, you so rite, I would love to try out the ptr2 and I think its
put together very well, but yes the hardware is a big show stopper,
and you will be better off with bookport dt from APH if you want to go
that root. I cannot compare drive of ptn2 with ptn1 as I did not
experience ptn1, but I think it will be better since one of the
firmware updates did address issues with the drive.

Re: Victor Reader Stream 2nd Generation

[Aidan]

Well, I think that humanware really like to give us quite crappy
hardware and then we pay fru our nek for what? I love my stream, but I
agree that PlexTalk do a much better job with hardware. The stream
wifi chip is really not that good. I would love to get a milestone, I
think I would like the 212 as it sfor voice and music mostly, as I
have enough players with more in a package.
I have both ptp1 and ptn2, wich have great speakers as said.
I just think that PlexTalk should make their devices faster and update
it more, then I can support them 100%. But the player I enjoy a lot
now is the evo e 10 from vin-vision. They a china baste company but
they really do great work.
The player have wifi, and its very strong, and the hardware in general
is very good. It don't have a full keypad though, so you do most
things with the up, down, left and write and enter, but it have the
most features of all.
Both fm radio and internet radio, podcast ability, recorder, and soon
will hopefully be able to record internet radio also. Five alarms,
voice memos, voice reminders, (similar to the notepad on ptr2)
The recorder is actually so loud when recording from external sorces
or radio that you need to set recording volume to 1 or 2, and the nice
thing about it is that if something is very soft, then you can make it
louder to record better.
Also have noise gate. Not to high quality bitrates, but the most used
are there. It even have time announcements on hour or hafr hour or 15
minits. It uses evona tts joei and sally. It have calculator and
compus bookmarks, and customizable hotkey set. Also alouw for
copying/moving/deleting files. It have four gig internal memory and
uses also sd hc carts. Extremely stable firmware and take ten seconds
to upgrade firmware. Can also check for updates online. It have a
large speaker on the top frunt, and sound louder than even ptp1. You
can choose if you want it to remember the playback position of
different content. Music, wich also include any playable audio,
e-books and daisy.

Re: Victor Reader Stream 2nd Generation

[Aidan]

Yes but that shouldn't be an excuse. These companies must wake up. I
no of a manufacture who does allot better in hardware and wich players
wifi is much stronger. Soon it will be able to record internet radio
and its much cheaper. Also humanware is very slow to update, fix bugs,
and new features. All new promts are now spoken by heather, though
they claim the stream is one of the players with human speech, well
these days they may just as well remove the human voice altogether,
since they don't seem to want to change these promts to speak with it
any longer.

Hello.

I might sound dum, but I don't seem to understand, I want to be able
to play a station and not skedual it for recording.
Is this possible and if so how? Because the dialog seems to expect to

Re: Best olympus accessible recorder.

Yes, the dm7 also don't have podcasts, wich is a pity, as the dm5 have
it, but now is discontinued. But the nice thing is dm7 have synthetic
speech and skedular and stil have the music player. But they also
removed the random feature and kept repeat though. But you no longer
have to set a sertin setting like on the dm5 to read file names. It
just does it automaticly.

Re: Daisy Player

[Aidan]

Furder more, dain, the thing people don't remember is that with these
deticated players, you have full control over text documents or daisy
text, wich you don't have on smart phones. It make me sick to do
everything on the dam phone.

I'm sorry to say but although the stream is good the new model
hardware is not so good.

Re: Daisy Player

[Aidan]

Well, because of price issues, I think if you don't need advanced
options the milestone seems great and should be a bit cheaper than the
rest. A pity they don't cell it here. But in the US irti do cell them.
They seem smaller and seem very stable. They have a little more
flexibility than the other players as many settings are stored in
files such as .ini files wich you can change. You can choose your
startup sound among other things that way.

Hello, I am not sure, since I've not seen that model yet, but I would guess 
that you might find the card slot on the left or right side of the unit.

Re: Total recorder driver clarefication needed

[Aidan]

Hi, the best thing to do is to instal it with defaults set. If you
choose one of the older drivers wich allow for choosing the
application to be captured, then you stil could have system problems.
Those are mostly for xp and although it could be used, it might not be
reliable in all cases. Therefore, use the defaults in the instal and
it will put the latest good stable driver on your system. Then to
silence jaws dearing recording you should not do things on the
computer or rood it to another soundcard or headset. Or press insert
plus space and then the letter s to mute until recording is done and
turn on again the same way.

Re: folks..may i ask a really dumb question?

[Aidan]

Hello. I got a mackie vlz4 a few weeks ago. Its a 4 channel, and very
impressed with it. It have a very clean sound and the mike pre amps
are great. I use mine for podccasting and such. It was very important
for me to get something that can handle both dynamic and condenser
mikes equally well. That is one of the things I have against behringer
that their components are not so good.

Re: ls100 problem

[Aidan]

Well, if you leave the batteries out of the unit for longer than 15
minits, it should later on when you turn it on it will bring up the
dialog asking if you want to leave voice on or turn it off. Its a good
thing to learn that part of the menu so you can get back there easily.
Normally I can get to it quickly, but I did not see the exact
structure of the ls100 yet so it will be a bit misleading from me to
give you ruff guesses as to where it exactly are.

That will not happen, they focus on recording, and since they don't

Re: Received My Olympus DM7

What do you mean? The stream does have a full keypad, the Olympus does
not, so they would have to implement what they done on the hv-e5 where
you choose the letter with up and down, and press ok to select.

Re: Question and a problem with Total Recorder

[Aidan]

You move forward by pressing control plus t, and backwoards with
control plus L. If you find you cannot make fine enough ajustments,
try adjusting the amount of movement with the control comma and
control period keys. So press either of those once and try move back
and forth again and ajust as needed. If you keep having problems to
close it. Try running as administrator or reinstall the program. Also,
if that don't work pleas take note. Open the program again, and try to
close it, then as soon as you get the problem again, then go to
settings, and then at the bottom you will find debug. Then tab there
til you get "save to file" and press on that, and save it to a
location where you can find it easily. Then send that as an attachment
to support. And any arrir message you get, press on the copy button
before you dismiss the dialog with the ok button, so you can paste
that in the email. Also, when saving the debug to a file, make sure
that the program is not closed before you do that. And don't use the
"save more to file" option until you asked by support.

Re: Olympus Recorders: Differences Between The DM-4 and DM-7

[Aidan]

The dm7 are on the Europe and uk and other sites. Not on the American
site. There are stil differences between 901 and dm7. Such as tts for
dm7 vursus human femail speech on the 901. The 901 have know text file
or daisy support, and not as accessible as dm7. The skedular or diary
is not easy to use there as on dm7.

 What you can find is a dm901.
 It seems to have the same specs and it records in stereo.
 It was pulling hens teeth to find that.

 The wi fi thing runs on a Iphone and allows you to trigger your recorder
 remotly.
 also you can send pictures to the recorder from your Iphone.

 Also there is software called controller  that ltes you edit files.
 I don't know if any of this software is accessable or not.

 Yes, its just ment to transfer files to and from the recorder. Usually
 Olympus don't do drastic updates. So they will probably make
 improvements in another model. I just wunder why they done the dm7 for
 Europe, but for the USA there were know similar model. At least in the
 case of the dm4 you had the dm5 for Europe and UK. I don't know why
 they cut down on internal memory. But I did also note that if you
 choose to turn off the mike monitor when recording, then it perform or
 behave better then other models when that is off.

 Yes, there were a few updates to dm4 to make more things speak. The
 dm7 have daisy functions, but I think that needs fixing as I cannot
 manage
 to read a book. Hopefully a update is coming. It can also import daisy
 from cd, but again I could not manage to perform that successfully. The
 diary is quite similar. I cannot compare to dm4 exactly, as I don't have
 one, but I know that on dm7 you first enter the diary, then you go to
 the
 day you want with cursor keys and press enter on that. Then you record
 the
 memo up to one minit I think. Then in the menu you will be able to set
 an
 alarm for the memo on the day you choose when you started off. And to
 set
 alarm and recording timer is very accessible. Note however that unlike
 the
 older models, there is know longer an alarm playback function under the
 playback menu. So the only alarm you can set are those wich are assigned
 to a voice memo. And then you connect to pc, you will see in the
 internal
 memory a folder containing the memos. I had know problem setting alarm.

 Doesn't the DM-7 have some sort of Wi-Fi facility or am I thinking of
 a different model.

 By the sounds of it the Daisy reader has been dumped in the DM-7, is
 this correct?

 I was able to use the voice of the DM-4 to set the time and date when
 it had been stated in various access publications that this couldn't
 be done so perhaps there have been a few firmware updates between 2011
 and the present day.

 I was able - well sort of - to use the Audio Diary of the DM-4, I
 couldn't schedule a memo to an accurate time of day but I could
 schedule a memo to a day so this meant all I had to do was to browse
 to the day I wanted to see my appointments for and just listen to each
 in tern, the
 DM-4 would tell me how many appointments I had scheduled as I moved
 between days.

Europe, but for the USA there were know similar model. At least in the
case of the dm4 you had the dm5 for Europe and UK. I don't know why
they cut down on internal memory. But I did also note that if you
choose to turn off the mike monitor when recording, then it perform or
behave better then other models when that is off.

 Yes, there were a few updates to dm4 to make more things speak. The
 dm7 have daisy functions, but I think that needs fixing as I cannot manage
 to read a book. Hopefully a update is coming. It can also import daisy
 from cd, but again I could not manage to perform that successfully. The
 diary is quite similar. I cannot compare to dm4 exactly, as I don't have
 one, but I know that on dm7 you first enter the diary, then you go to the
 day you want with cursor keys and press enter on that. Then you record the
 memo up to one minit I think. Then in the menu you will be able to set an
 alarm for the memo on the day you choose when you started off. And to set
 alarm and recording timer is very accessible. Note however that unlike the
 older models, there is know longer an alarm playback function under the
 playback menu. So the only alarm you can set are those wich are assigned
 to a voice memo. And then you connect to pc, you will see in the internal
 memory a folder containing the memos. I had know problem setting alarm.

Re: Voice Guidance Languages On Olympus Recorders

[Aidan]

Hi.
The thing is that the newer models like ls14 and dm901 don't allow
uploading voice files as the older models. When ever are more voice
file updates you will then have to download a seprit voice updater
program wich will bring the files up to date, after wich you can
choose another language if supported. Keep in mind that not all
display languages are supported by speech. The manual and
spesifications are very clear about that.

 Subject: Voice Guidance Languages On Olympus Recorders

 Hi.

 On an Olympus LS-14 bought from Japan there are English  Japanese with
 voice guidance for each language so when display language is changed voice
 guidance language changes as well.  On the other hand on a dm-901 purchased
 in Sweden although there are many languages on the screen voice guidance
 came only in English.  I updated the firmware on dm-901 to the latest and
 when installed Swedish voice guidance file English disappeared and was
 replaced, vice versa happened when I installed the English voice guidance
 file.

 My question is how to to make multiple voice guidance language files active
 on demand like in the situation of LS-14 mentioned above and not replace
 each other?

 My other question is I want to replace Japanese on LS-14 with Swedish both
 on the display as well as voice guidance.  How to accomplish that?

 When I searched the downloads of LS-14 I only found the manual for
 ls-12/14,
 no firmware nor voice guidance files, regards.

 Subject: FetchTV

 Hi!

 Posted the below article on FetchTV a couple of weeks ago to another
 list,
 thought people here may be interested in the read.

 snip
 Just ordered this through Internode so taking the time to read up on the
 FetchTV service, there's plenty to read.

 Firstly, those who may be interested in the FetchTV service will be
 pleased
 to know that the Smart Apps - can't specifically comment on the iPhone
 version smile - seem to be particularly accessible.

 Second, a little sighted assistance seems to be required to go through
 the
 initial setup procedure which is screen based but once that's out of the
 way
 then you should be good to go.

 The User guide - whilst containing many helpful tips - is going to need
 some
 translation as it contains many diagrams so I'll undertake that project
 myself
 unless anyone else has done it smile.

 The FetchTV box can record up to 3 Free-to-Air shows at any one time or
 you
 can watch one whilst recording two others etc.

 You're able to access subscription channels through the FetchTv service
 though this really wasn't a requirement for me, they're there if I want
 them.

 You can watch Netflixh through your FetchTV but as yet I don't know just
 how accessible this would be and in any case, I have other accessible
 ways
 of watching Netflix already so its not a major concern.

 And finally, you can use your FetchTV box as a media server thus you can
 share all that you've recorded with your Windows PC, Mac or other devices
 such as your Blu-Ray player etc.

 I should have the FetchTV unit some time next week and hope to be able to
 tell you more about it then but I guess I should answer the question, why
 did I bother buying a FetchTV box?

 I had word that the Windows Media Center App is to be discontinued from
 Windows 10, no doubt Microsoft have there reasons.

 Its a pity as Windows Media Center is a perfectly accessible way to watch
 your favourite TV shows, look up items in the TV guide, Record your
 favourite shows and so on.

well that is not good practice. They in some ways just steeling from

 Voice Sense to handle the changes in Twitter's API, but they're constantly

 I don't believe the Book Sense is available any more and they replaced it
 with something that's at least twice as expensive.

 Even if I could afford a new HIMS notetaker, I'm not at all sure that I'd

 What do you mean? They brought out the blaze, and I think the

 replacement of the xt. I am not sure what you mean if you say they

 Hi,
 I just read the Main Menu Newsletter for the next Main Menu show and they
 announce great new products from Hims, of which at a cursory glance I
 couldn't find anything on their site. Since I'm going to go to the
 SightCity

 tomorrow, Europes biggest exhibition for products for the blind and
 visually

 impaired, I was wondering, if anyone could enlighten me on what these
 great

 new products are so that I can ask about them.

 Thanks in advance

 Hi!

 Posted the below article on FetchTV a couple of weeks ago to another
 list,
 thought people here may be interested in the read.

 snip
 Just ordered this through Internode so taking the time to read up on the
 FetchTV service, there's plenty to read.

 Firstly, those who may be interested in the FetchTV service will be
 pleased
 to know that the Smart Apps - can't specifically comment on the iPhone
 version smile - seem to be particularly accessible.

 Second, a little sighted assistance seems to be required to go through
 the
 initial setup procedure which is screen based but once that's out of the
 way
 then you should be good to go.

 The User guide - whilst containing many helpful tips - is going to need
 some
 translation as it contains many diagrams so I'll undertake that project
 myself
 unless anyone else has done it smile.

 The FetchTV box can record up to 3 Free-to-Air shows at any one time or
 you
 can watch one whilst recording two others etc.

 You're able to access subscription channels through the FetchTv service
 though this really wasn't a requirement for me, they're there if I want
 them.

 You can watch Netflixh through your FetchTV but as yet I don't know just
 how accessible this would be and in any case, I have other accessible
 ways
 of watching Netflix already so its not a major concern.

 And finally, you can use your FetchTV box as a media server thus you can
 share all that you've recorded with your Windows PC, Mac or other
 devices
 such as your Blu-Ray player etc.

 I should have the FetchTV unit some time next week and hope to be able
 to
 tell you more about it then but I guess I should answer the question,
 why
 did I bother buying a FetchTV box?

 I had word that the Windows Media Center App is to be discontinued from
 Windows 10, no doubt Microsoft have there reasons.

 Its a pity as Windows Media Center is a perfectly accessible way to

 Welcome to the Pc-audio@pc-audio.org mailing list! Welcome to the
 pc-audio group. Please take a moment to review this message. You
 should save it for later reference, as it contains important
 information about this group, such as your password, how to change
 your preferences, and a few basic rules of conduct we expect all
 members to observe.

 Attention!  Do NOT send a test message to the list or you will not be
 subscribed very long!

 Guidelines.

 PC-audio is a list for the discussion of any PC audio related topic
 such as PC audio software like sound editors, audio players and audio
 formats; and hardware like sound cards, CD and DVD devices and so on.

 While the subject matter is wide ranging, this is not a forum for the
 discussion of non-pc-audio matters. There are many other lists for
 political or other discussions.

 There are also some PC audio related topics which are specifically
 excluded from the allowable topics.  The explicitly prohibited topics
 include:

 * requests for songs or other audio files * promotion of audio streams
 except for occasional announcements of special events * advertising
 audio products and service Willfully posting an off-topic message is
 strictly prohibited. While it may be considered that one or two
 messages that are off topic can't hurt, if everyone on a large list
 like this took that approach, we would quickly descend into chaos.
 Asking for replies to be sent privately makes no difference.

 Some examples of off-topic messages include:

 * Virus alerts * Jokes and humor * Advertising items for sale * Test
 messages * Non-audio software and hardware

 Vulgar language, name calling and other types of flames are strictly
 prohibited.

 Sometimes a message thread starts with a clearly defined purpose, but
 as the discussion develops the subject matter can change. If this
 happens, you should take the initiative and change the subject line to
 better reflect the subject matter of the thread.

 Some people pay by time or volume when they use the Internet. For this
 reason, please take care when quoting messages that you're replying
 to.

 Ideally, keep just enough of the previous message to remind
 subscribers about the message to which you're replying, and no more.
 Otherwise, one quickly finds a few lines of new text at the beginning
 of a message followed by screen after screen of old messages.

 If you believe that any of these rules are not being followed, do not
 raise this as an issue on the list. Write to the group owner at
 pc-audio-ow...@pc-audio.org and express your concern. If you raise
 these matters on the group itself, it will generate considerable
 off-topic traffic and bad feeling. There is only one moderator. Please
 do not post messages asking that a thread stop or accusing someone on
 the list of being off topic.

 The moderator of the list has the right to remove or restrict anyone
 from being able to post to the group as a result of not adhering to
 the stated rules.

 If you disagree with any of these rules, please unsubscribe now by
 sending a message to pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org If you do not
 unsubscribe, this is taken as an acceptance by you that you will abide
 by the rules as outlined.

 Yes, it is indeed from POIKOSOFT. And yes, it is almost completely
 accessible so far as I can tell with my Window Eyes 8.4.
 There are a couple of unlabeled buttons, but it's not hard to figure out
 what they do from hitting them. For example, there's a button to let you
 browse to where you want it to put the files it rips, but my Window Eyes
 doesn't say Browse. Also, I can't find any Save button in here anywhere,
 so
 I need to check to make sure it still has my settings whenever I open it.
 You can edit profiles, but I still haven't totally got the hang of how to
 save them exactly. And when you try to delete a profile, it starts at the
 top of the list, and not on the profile your cursor is on when you go
 into
 the Edit Profile dialogue box.
 Still, it is working very well overall.

Re: total recorder

[Aidan]

Hi, you must make sure under the recording settings dialog that
software moad is selected and for best results use the kernel filter
driver. If you don't see the kernel filter driver in the main settings
under the driver section, use the install file to reinstall with the
kernel filter driver selected. Then just test your volumes, I normally
have the recording driver volume set to round about 77%.

 For visually impaired users be patient as QT support is experiencing
 some issues with accessibility but we're preparing new version. Please
 try the beta version which might solve the accessibility issues

 Actually I hadn't noticed any accessibility issues in the previous

 although it is in beta it seems very stable and I haven't had any
 problems with it.

then we can get the voice files back. I'm not sure why the pc don't

any unused drivers from the device manager, providing that you no its

 Hi.  Well, where do I begin.  I think I'm very spoiled because I have a

 the
 Win7 drivers for the player so I can load it with music.  I think it is
 designed for XP users only.  Giving I can't use it I was hoping the DM5
 would have good sound reproduction and although it is reasonable at a
 push,
 it doesn't compare to the Zen Touch.  My disappointment was compounded
 when
 I compared it with my mobile phone player which is superior to the DM5
 in
 sound quality.  The DM5 spoken menus are inadequate.  It tells you the
 track
 name but you get very little info of how many tracks you have on the
 player.
 For example if I decide to play music by selecting artist then it
 doesn't
 give me the number of tracks in any particular artists folder and also
 when
 I arrow up and down the list, the reaction time is very slow and that is
 with speeding up the voice guidance.  I'm inclined to just use my mobile
 for
 music listening unless I can get a better player that will give me very
 high
 quality sound reproduction.  Oh, nearly forgot, I have to increase the
 volume to nearly full to get a good level of volume, it seems the DM5
 output
 signal is a low one.  It would seem to me that the player is truly meant
 as
 a portable recorder and the music player function is an afterthought.
 This
 player has never really been used, I'm just getting to grips with it.  I
 bought it a couple of years ago and it has lay in an equipment box ever
 since and not been touched but maybe I'll consider selling it.  Walter.

 Subject: Update on TapinRadio Crashing

 Hi all,

 Recently there was some discussion about TapinRadio crashing for some
 people on the list.

 I mentioned that I had solved this problem by uninstalling my anti-virus
 program which is ESET Smart Security version 8, updating TapinRadio with
 the latest station presets and then re-installing ESET Smart Security.

 Since then I've found that every time I update the station presets in
 TapinRadio with my anti-virus program installed I get the problem other
 people have reported with an error similar to web downloader not
 responding. So I have actually uninstalled my anti-virus program,
 updated the TapinRadio presets and then reinstalled ESET Smart Security
 for a second time.

 After the second installation of ESET Smart Security I went into the
 options of TapinRadio and turned off the option to check for new station
 listings automatically.

 Since I've turned this option off I haven't had any problems with
 TapinRadio crashing. However while I can now listen to stations on
 TapinRadio I can't update the presets for fear of TapinRadio crashing
 again.

 I'm using Windows 7 32-bit with all important Windows Updates installed.

 I hope a solution to this problem can be found for those of us who are
 getting the crashes in TapinRadio.

 Regards Steve.

Re: Another question about the Olympus DM5

[Aidan]

Well, you can always go to the file properties and see if it will read
them. If not, then I suggest you look at the dm7. Its a new model, and
for the first time ever, its now possible to set the date and time and
it speaks everything, even file properties. I also were able to set
the recording timer, alarm and using the skedular or calendar easily.
Its truly the most accessible ever.

 Hi.  Well, where do I begin.  I think I'm very spoiled because I have a
 20gig Creative Zen touch mp3 player.  This player is magnificent when it
 comes to sound quality but I'm not able to use it because I can't find the
 Win7 drivers for the player so I can load it with music.  I think it is
 designed for XP users only.  Giving I can't use it I was hoping the DM5
 would have good sound reproduction and although it is reasonable at a push,
 it doesn't compare to the Zen Touch.  My disappointment was compounded when
 I compared it with my mobile phone player which is superior to the DM5 in
 sound quality.  The DM5 spoken menus are inadequate.  It tells you the
 track
 name but you get very little info of how many tracks you have on the
 player.
 For example if I decide to play music by selecting artist then it doesn't
 give me the number of tracks in any particular artists folder and also when
 I arrow up and down the list, the reaction time is very slow and that is
 with speeding up the voice guidance.  I'm inclined to just use my mobile
 for
 music listening unless I can get a better player that will give me very
 high
 quality sound reproduction.  Oh, nearly forgot, I have to increase the
 volume to nearly full to get a good level of volume, it seems the DM5
 output
 signal is a low one.  It would seem to me that the player is truly meant as
 a portable recorder and the music player function is an afterthought. This
 player has never really been used, I'm just getting to grips with it.  I
 bought it a couple of years ago and it has lay in an equipment box ever
 since and not been touched but maybe I'll consider selling it.  Walter.

 Hi!

 Yep, you get Garage Band as standard with your Mac, I've never used it but
 you'll find tutorials on Garage Band at http://www.icanworkthisthing.com
 these tutorials have been written by blind users who use a Mac, you'll
 find just about everything you'll probably want to ever know about
 Voiceover and Iphone up there too! so that's a damn good resource.

 As wel as Garage Band you get Quicktime Player, no this application isn't
 an editor but it is a sound recorder so you have that to be going on with
 at least if you want to record something.

 As you know I use a variety of recorders and editors with my Mac, my
 favourite recorder would have to be Audio Hijack Pro, records from any app
 or any sound device.  My favourite recorder/editor would have to be
 Amadeus Pro which handles multi track recording/editing too! funny we
 should be talking about multi track recording/editing on pc-audio right
 now.

 Anyway have fun and I'll answer your questions where and if I can, if I
 can't answer them then I'll put you in touch with people who can.

 For starters, in audio recording and editing, what can the Mack do that

Re: Reinstalled Total Recorder

[Aidan]

I agree, the only thing why its kind of important that it support aac
plus streams and alike, is because then you can add the stations to
your favorites, and schedule something and it can record without
another player have to be open. The way it is now, you have to have
your brouzer or another audio player open in order for the skedular to
record. Wich means if I have to record something everyday at nine in
the morning, I have to set the skedual, and every night make sure
before I go to bed that the audio player is running, and I have to
even make sure the station in of intrest is running if I want to
record from radio. Wich means the radio have to play the hole night
just to enable it to be ready.

 To your eMail first, what formats Total Recorder does or doesn't support
 really isn't an issue these days, so long as the software can record in
 Wave or a lossless format then its no big problem given the many file
 conversion utilities out there such as Switch but yes, I take your point
 about AAC and it is a little surprising I have to admit.

 Now regarding the background feature, I jsut tried it and all I can say
 is wonderful! just schedule what you want to record from the Internet
 and that's all you do, no interruptions from your Screen Reader or
 anything else you may be doing on your computer whilst recording, no
 .need to leave your browser open and the stream playing whilst Total
 Recorder Professional records and so on, thanks to the list memember who
 alerted me to this.

 stations that do play work very well. And I like it the way you can
 sort your favorites and edit them to your liking. You not just stuck
 to adding a long list of them. And one of the best things is that you
 can easily restore to defaults when you mess up settings you not sure
 of. And you can import and export settings wich I don't no if all of
 the major editers can do. I also must try background recording. I use
 the pro adition. The technical help documents about the driver and
 related issues I find very interesting. And unlike the sound tap
 program wich is also ment for recording internal audio, with this
 driver you can at least control verius aspects such as the recording
 volume where necessary. So you don't have to go to windows system
 mixer to ajust or the media player internal volume control for
 example, as once they set to be loud enough for the most part, total
 recorder can take care of the rest and you can make ajustmenst there.
 Yes the automatic speech add on is exilint. It works well and I also
 use the ogg vorbis add on, and the digital mixer add on and the laim
 mp3 encoder. I also like that it can record in 3gp when you need to
 save space. I'm not sure what steps you would need to take to record
 in GoldWave in 3gp, I guess you need to find the correct encoder and
 for some that might be a bit advanced, as GoldWave shines in wave as
 that is what it record and where you perform editing anyway. Yes
 shortcuts in total recorder is easy, and they make a big
 distinguishing between global hotkeys and program spisific shortcuts.

 The Editor in the Professional version does a pretty slick hob though
 I've changed a few of the keyboard shortcuts to reflect my personal

 And finally, You're absolutely spot-on when you talk of the excellent

 but on associated topics such as recording different types of audio

Re: Reinstalled Total Recorder

[Aidan]

Yes, its the best program out there I found. Many people don't believe
it. Why should many struggle to use complex stuff like audacity if
this can do such a good job? I understand for advanced stuff you would
go furder but really this help in so many remarks. I like the fact
that you can split files in realtime manually. I don't even think it
can be done with GoldWave. Split by time many programs supports, but
split manually is something to struggle to find. The skedular is easy
to use and I like the fact that each dialog that might pup up have a
copy and debug button so you can send them all the info they need. It
also have a system as whereby you can save bug info settings to a file
and stuff so you can send to tech support. There staff is really
helpful and with such kind of tools they can easyer help you solve
problems and you can actually get the help you need. I really think
people should try it before they give it up. If you install it with
the default settings and don't change the driver moad, then you will
be fine on most newer systems.

 Anyway to the point, I've been setting up some schedules and other stuff

 the product seem to have been dealt with and I'm sure I'm not the only

 The sluggish menu navigation seems to have been fixed, there was a delay

Re: Radiosure

[Aidan]

I don't like ITunes radio so much. They don't really add all the
stations I want and I'm not aware of constant stream fixes and
updates. At least with Tapp in radio they do that. And ITunes don't
have a skedular and you cannot record the radio wich sucks. ITunes is
just good enough for manageing your Eye devices.

 I've used it a few times and found it performs very well and has a good

Re: tapin radio update

[Aidan]

I suggest you uninstall it again, but then after uninstallation you go
to the registry and look if you can find any key for tap in radio and
delete the key with any subkeys it might contain. Then restart the pc
and reinstall and restart again. Maybe something else is playing up
here. Also, when you uninstalled your anti virus, did you do a
complete uninstall? You should uninstall in safe moad for most
packages to be able to remove all components. To only uninstall from
control panel often leaves components behind.

Re: My TapinRadio Problem Solved

[Aidan]

All that this is teaching me is to rather have no or basic virus
protection. Why must we as consumers suffer just because some
companies don't no the software. Not fair. I rather stick with ms
security or nothing. At the end, virus programs cannot really give you
the at most protection. They can warn you and scan things they can
find but even then you could be already affected. If they could only
make it more accessible so you can go into the virus ches to remove
files that you no are safe, and tell the program. But no, for them,
blind people don't have the rite to use virus software. So once again
we nothing to them.

 Hi Chuck,

 Thanks for your message. I neglected to mention that first of all I
 tried disabling my firewall and anti-virus software to see if TapinRadio
 would let me hear stations and that didn't work. So I tried completely
 uninstalling my anti-virus software and reinstalling it again and that
 solved the problem. Yes it was a bit of work and inconvenient but I'm
 glad it fixed the problem. Of course whether you do this or not is
 completely up to you but this was the only thing that worked for me.

Re: Olympus DM5 question

[Aidan]

Walter, the thing to keep in mind is that, when you plug it in, it
should say something like a c adapter connection or pc connection.
Then depending on your U S B settings, you must either select the a c
adapter setting, or it will be selected by default. Then once you here
that, you must press enter, it should then speak the promt: press ok
to start charging and once you here that you must press the enter key
strait away. You might not here any feedback at that point, but its
very important you press enter at that stage and no other button,
because that dialog will dismiss. What happened to you is that you
plugged it in power, but you did perhaps not confirm the charging
aspect. Then it run on power only. So then you took it out, and when
it turn back on, it gave you free short beeps to confirm that the
battery is stil flat. It did not charge and therefore it only work in
the wall.

 Hi all.  This is a tentative inquiry regarding this voice recorder.  I
 bought it around 2-2.5 years ago but apart from a day or two of
 investigation I have never used the machine.  I took the battery from the
 player and stored  it all away for 2 and a half years or more.  My interest
 has once more been rekindled but after replacing the battery, putting it on
 charge over night for around 8 hours I'm a little confused.  When attached
 to a mains outlet and I then turn on the player I get the start tone and I
 can using the voice guidance navigate through the folders.  Of course as it
 hasn't been used there is nothing in the folders but the voice guidance
 does
 work.  However if I disconnect the player from the mains and again turn it
 on, I once more get the start up tone but around 3 or 4 seconds later I get
 3 quick beeps but the voice guidance doesn't work as when it is attached to
 the mains.  I at first thought the battery isn't charging but if that were
 the case then it wouldn't start and I wouldn't get the start tone so the
 player must be getting power from the battery.  Unfortunately I will have
 no
 sighted help until Friday to see what is on the screen but if anybody can
 tell me what the 3 quick beeps mean and if it is a problem what can I do
 about it.  Hope you can help but if you do need more info, I'll try and get
 that on Friday.  Walter.

 Hi.  When I attach the AC plug I get no notification.  I didn't try
 charging
 via the usb because if a problem occurs then I have another element to
 consider, is the fault with the player, the usb connection or my computer
 etc.  The AC was the most straightforward so I've used that but it must be
 the default setting.  When I'm more experienced I will try the usb and no
 doubt I'll get a notification confirming usb charging, will have to wait
 and
 see.

 Last night I thought; what the hell, and put it on charge again over night.
 I didn't do anything different as far as I know but in the morning I
 disconnected it from the mains and turned it on and this time didn't get
 the
 three beeps and the voice navigation was working.  I won't do anything
 involved with it until Friday when I'll get sighted help and if the
 charging
 indicator shows full then I'll try exploring the player.  In between now
 and
 then I'll try working through some of the manual and try and make sense of
 it.  However though, it is working, so far anyway.  I think though I'll buy
 a replacement battery just to be on the safe side as they aren't too

 because all choices have been made for you so all you really have to do is
 take the iPhone out of its box, put it on charge, turn the iPhone on, fire
 up Voiceover, follow some simple set-up instructions and you're ready to
 go.

 One of the most challenging and yet most enjoyable products for me has been
 my Raspberry Pi which I've written about a few times here, I got the Media
 Centre XBMC going on the box and now use it with my iPhone etc.

 That's the way, do your research and see what you come up with.

 As far as the Mac is concerned - and other platforms as well - there are a
 lot of myths about the place and - as good as the Internet is at providing
 information - the Internet is also very good at providing misinformation,
 I saw a review of Voiceover not long ago and it only took me a few lines
 of reading to fully understand that the author unfortunately had
 absolutely no idea of what he was talking about, yes he had been using
 computers for 20 years but had not! read any documentation on Voiceover or
 the Mac let alone done any homework on the subject or asked any questions
 so has far as he was concerned? The Mac and Voiceover was supposed to be
 exactly the same as his Windows Machine using JAWS, that's like comparing
 bicycles the cars, whilst they both get you from point A to point B they
 do it in slightly different ways.

 Anyway that's another story for another day smile.

 Hi!

 I've changed the subject line smile.

 Voiceover works very well for me and - for the most part - always has
 done over the last 8 years but there's no doubt that Voiceover itself -
 like everything else - has gone ahead in leaps and bounds.

 There are some truly remarkable Apps out there for those who like audio
 including the best value for money audio editing software that money can
 buy for a computer of any platform, I speak of Amadeus Pro of course.
 I think the purchase price has gone up a little since I purchased it
 around 6 years ago but its still good value for money given that you can
 do multi track editing and so on.

 The there's that other tool I wouldn't be without, Audio Hijack Pro which
 does exactly as its name suggests, hijacks the audio from any source and
 allows you to manipulate it, capture it, record it, send it somewhere
 else etc.

 I've only scratched the surface of course.

Re: Simple Voice Recorder Suggestion

[Aidan]

Hi, the dm620 will be a good one, she can ignore any settings she
don't no, as the defaults is quite good for a non technical person.
Just be sure to back up the speech files in case the recorder need to
be formatted in the future. That being said, if she don't no a pc well
enough to transfer files, maybe she still need something even more
simple, such as the older recorders with only a rewind, forward, and
play/stop. But then not all of those got USB? If she don't no windows
well, I suggest dolphin guide from dolphin, wich provide a simplified
interface for many computer tasks, including file transfers. The
Olympus models should be compatible with guide as wel. Download a demo
for testing if you wish, let me no if you need a link.

 Please do, thank you.  My friend is not familiar with different models, and

 Hi Samuel,

 Olympus change their models as often as they change their financial
 advisers.

 The DM  range appear to offer the speech system.

 I can make further enquiries if you would like.

 I have 2 DM units here, cost about 150 when new.  But should be able to
 locate one easily enough if the asking price is a little high at retail,
 then second hand would suffice.

 The RNIB carry the Olympus range, well some of them, the cheaper items
 do not have the speech offering, and you need to run olympus software.
 With the DM range, they connect just as an external drive, with an
 assigned drive letter.

 Hello Samuel,

 I would think that one of the better olympus machines might fit the bill.

 There is enough voice feedback available to make it accessible, to the
 points where your friend may require.

 Hello everyone,

 I have a friend who is blind and wants to be able to make voice recordings.
 Does anyone know of a simple voice recorder she can use that can connect to
 a computer via USB to transfer recordings onto the computer?  Note that she
 is not a very technical person.  Thank you.



 Regards,



 Samuel Wilkins

Good evening fellow listers:

I'm thinking about getting into broadcasting on ACB radio Interactive
sometime in the near future. I plan to record my live shows as they're going
out on air, so that I can then upload them as a podcast somewhere online, so
that people can go and listen to and/or download them. People have said,
that you can use blogger to post podcast/show notes, and use ourmedia.com,
to upload the actual audio files, which in tern would present you with a
link leading to the audio file to which you can paste into the blog. This
link, is what people would use to download the file to their computers. This
much I understand. However, I've heard, that blogger isn't all that user
friendly, and ourmedia.com has a bad habbit of not making uploaded files
available right away and once something is uploaded, there's no garuntee as
to how long the file will remain on the site. So, I was wondering, if there
was an accessible site where I could upload podcasts, and add show notes all
in one place? Of course, being that I don't yet have a show slot, I won't
have to deal with any of this just yet, but I just wanted to get an idea as
to where I could post mp3 copies of my radio show, if I decide to archive
it. Thanks.
