opening media player 10/how to get rid of the list

2004-09-25 Thread Joanne
When opening media player 9 it just says windows media player.  When 
opening media player 10 it says not selected icons, skins, visualizations, 
migrate, etc.  There are 19 items and also you cannot make the alt t and o 
for options list work as long as this annoying list is there.  Should 
something be configured in the player so I don't have to see this list upon 
opening the player?  The alt t and o, as long as this list is around, does 
not bring you to the player page, etc.  It takes you instead to folder 
options and general page as if in a properties menu.

Fwd: Winamp For The Blind list details

2004-09-25 Thread Steve Pattison
*** BEGIN FORWARDED MESSAGE  ***
On 21/09/2004 at 9:15 PM Chris Skarstad [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Hi all
Dave Williams did a fantastic little series on Winamp 5, and he was
nice 
enough to mention the list I run, it's called Winamp for the 
blind.  Doubtless some of you are already on the list I know this for a

fact, but for those of you who aren't I thought I would pass on the
details.
Back in May of this year, the list moved from Smartgroups, over to 
freelists.org, so obviously, the list address has changed.
Unfortunately,
I 
couldn't get a lot of feedback from smartgroups about moving the list,
and 
a lot of people aparently got left in the lirch.
It certainly wasn't my intention to do this, and I guess the list
moving 
didn't get publicized a lot.
In any case, the list has been running strong at Freelists.org since
mid 
may, and things are going great.
We had a website up for a while, but unfortunately, it's down until we
can 
find a new provider for it, and that process is still being worked on,
have 
no fear, we haven't forgotten it I promise.
Ok, onto the details.  To subscribe, send a blank e-mail to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and put the word subscribe in the subject line. note that the word 
subscribe should be in all lower case and without quote marks around 
it.  You should then receive a confirmation e-mail back, so replying to

that*should* subscribe you to the list.  A special note to Outlook and 
outlook express users...
Some folks have reported to the list admins that they've had trouble 
subscribing, and in looking at the headers of the messages, we were
able
to 
determine that they were all using Outlook or Outlook express, and they
all 
had the option to include the original message in the reply turned 
off.  Still others had the option to show signature in the reply, and
in 
both cases, this caused the Freelists mail server software to get
really 
confused, so if you're using Outlook and outlook express, it is
strongly 
advised that you turn off the feature that includes your signature in
the 
reply and turn on the feature that includes the original message in the

reply.  If you do this, the server software will not play up and things

should befine.
We send a frequently asked questions FAQ file to the list once every
month, 
and if you have a freelists account you can view this any time you
like.
We 
update the FAQ when necessary,
so watch for a message when the FAQ gets posted. If you're first
joining 
the list and you don't know thing 1 about Winamp, read this FAQ file
first. 
It answers a whole lot of the newby questions all in one place and
provides 
many resources for you to do more research.  Winamp For The Blind is a
fun 
list, but I'm going to be honest and very up front when I tell you that
it 
isn't designed for the very beginning windows user, or someone who
isn't 
very technically oriented.  Winamp is fantastic and it does a lot of
great 
stuff. it's great if you just want to listen to ACB Radio and other 
stations, but to harnis the full power of the application, you should
most 
definitely be an intermediate to advanced windows user. Most people on
the 
list understand this and a good lot of the people on the list are 
intermediate and advanced windows users, so again, if you're just 
beginning, you might like to learn as much as you can about the windows

operating system as you can before joining. Your experience will
certainly 
help you to understand some of the more complex concepts that Winamp
has. 
If you've heard the review Dave did, you know that it has a lot of
check 
boxes, list boxes and other things, but sometimes the way they are 
displayed can be a bit different and may be confusing if you're just 
learning how windows works.  So some experience in windows is
recommended, 
but most certainly not a requirement.   Hope this information is
helpful
to 
some of you, and again I thought  Dave did a fantastic job in his
review 
about the media library. In almost an hour, he covered a whole lot of
the 
stuff that we talk about on the list in a daily basis such as how to
raise 
and lower Winamp's volume independent of software speech, how to
increase 
the number of streams in the media library, and other stuff.  So
hopefully 
the archives will be brought bang up to date and when we get our
website 
back up, we'll certainly link to both parts of the review.

Thanks.

A Soundforge Question

2004-09-25 Thread Gary Wood
Hi all.  I'm burning some old-time radio to CD.  I had something with Bob Hope.  It 
sounded like it was too high pitched from what I remembered of Bob Hope, even back in 
the early years.  Anyway, I'm wondering:  In soundforge, you're supposed to be able to 
either pitch shift or bend, but what is the keystroke to cause it to have the pitch 
lowered.  I would appreciate any help with this, or with anything else that will do 
this.  Is there a way to do this in Winamp, or with the other media players?

INTERNET RADIO

2004-09-25 Thread pele West
Hi Everyone

Apologies if people have seen this message on another list.  I sent it
to the Access-UK list, with little luck.

I have recently got broadband and am anxious to listen to all kinds of
radio stations without the constant interruptions that used to occur
when I had a phone line.

I am using Windows 98 second edition on a PC with a 2 GHz processor and
256 Mb RAM. I have Realplayer, Winamp and Windows media Player
installed.  I use Window-Eyes 4 and JAWS 5.10.

I appear to be able to listen to BBC stations with few problems,
although recently i tried to listen to the cricket on the net and,
although it tells me I am listening to it, I can hear no sound.  

If I try to listen to most other stations either it plays for a few
seconds and locks up or Realplayer or Windows media Player fails and I
see the message Mainapplication Window.

One strange thing: I use Window-eyes or JAWS 5.10.  If I use
Window-Eyes the station is more likely to run for a few seconds and
lock up the PC, if I use JAWS I get the MainApplicationWindow message.

Can anyone throw any light on this?  

Also, is it possible to use Winamp to play RealPlayer and windows media
streams?

Apologies for such a convoluted message, but any help would be
appreciated.

Pele West

Hello,
This station comes in loud and clear here in the UK without any playlist 
popping up.  I am using Winamp.  Perhaps you will need to change a Winamp 
setting, but I cannot say which one - sorry.

Hope this helps.

Re: A Soundforge Question

2004-09-25 Thread Rick and Pauline
Hi Gary,

To change the pitch of a file in Soundforge, press alt C for effects, and
arrow up for pitch submenu; click on it.  You can now arrow down for pitch
shift, and hit enter.  You are now ready to arrow down again at this point,
where you will find a number of pitch shifted presets which you can choose
from, but I usually skip these presets in favor of the semitone slider
setting.  To locate this semitone slider, just continue to tab several times
until you get to the slider and click on it.  You can arrow up or down for
the pitch you prefer and hit enter.
