Thanks for everyon'es response on this, I'll check you all out shortly and I look forward to hearing from you all. From the recordings I've heard thus far (and I haven't had a chance to check it out myself) Teamtalk is the best quality voice chat client I've heard, only thing that comes close to it is Ichat and of course, Teamtalk is extremely configurable. ** Dane Trethowan From Melton Victoria Australia Phone +613 9747 3975 Voiceover Tech Support +613 8732 9237 Fax +613 9743 7954 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: callto:grtdane12 *** Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Daisy books onto mp3 players
That's definitely an option, but not the best one for wanting to read a chapter at a time or something like that. I noticed most of the mp3 files on the Cd are about 15 minutes long. This is fine for me if I can just get them onto an mp3 player in a logical order, because they aren't named in a logical order.

RE: Daisy books onto mp3 players
I'm aware of the DRm and the victor reader. What I want is a way to convert/move the mp3 files on the CD to my mp3 player so I can listen to them in a logical order without needing the victor reader or the like. If you open the cd and just play one of the mp3 files using winamp or the like, it will play, but you can't tell by the file name which part it belongs to. So I'm looking for a way to get the mp3 files from the cd to an mp3 player in a logical order. A simple copy and paste won't do the trick, I've already tried it. Thanks, Jason -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeffrey Dunn Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 5:58 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Daisy books onto mp3 players Hi Jason: In order to play Daisy books from RFBD, you'll need to have an approved player. Currently they are supporting Humanware's Victor reader Stream, and other Victor Reader players. This is due to publishers ristrictions due to Copywright law. What happens is that through a technology called Digital Rights management, D.R.M. for short, your player gets stamped with a key, this is done currently by purchasing a software package from RFBD for $20. Only players with the D.R.M. key stamped on them will allow the Daisy files to play. D.R.M. is also used in Books from N.L.S. and Audible.com. You can find the controversial explanations of D.R.M. for music and other Copywright texts and matterials on the Ellectronic Frontier Foundation's web site at: www.eff.org. I think one day, RFBD may support other players, but for now Humanware has the dominating market. I also recall that you can ship your Plextalk Players to RFBD to get the key installed as well. Hope this helps. Jeff At 08:29 AM 2/14/2008, you wrote: Hi all, I have a few daisy books from RFB D. Does anyone know how to get these books onto an MP3 player?

Enabling Line-in Playback on my Sound Card in Vista
Hi everyone. I am attempting to get my DVR connected to my computer. I know that I need to enable the audio-in on my sound card. The problem is, Vista has done some really weird stuff with sounds, and I can't figure out what I need to do to make this work. I have a Creative SB X-Fi sound card. I've made sure that all possible devices are showing under the playback tab of sounds in Control Panel. I can see the line-in option under the recording tab, but under playback all I see are two different speaker options, one for my regular speakers and one for my USB headset, and some other device that I'm not sure about. It appears though that I can only have one device selected at a time, so I can't get playback from multiple sources. Is this correct? Finally, if anyone has one of these sound cards, I'm not quite sure which jack is the line-in jack. There are four plugs, and I'm used to the SB cards that have 5, so I'm not totally sure which jacks are there and what they each do. Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

Re: Sound devices for the PC
Dane, A couple of years ago, I wanted to obtain excellent audio at a reasonable price. After sifting through years worth of messages on this list and that of blind tech, the consensus from the enlightened and informed was the Audiophile 2496 sound card from M-Audio. The card includes the Delta audio interface. My aim was to increase the sound quality of the music I listen to using my computer and to also feed voice recordings from the community recorded with a minidisc recorder into it. My research and decision was confirmed by a conversation I had with Tom McCann, proprietor of Dancing dots. tom created a really nice web page, sorting out the sound card issue for blind musicians. It can be found at: http://www.dancingdots.com/prodesc/soundcards.htm When I bought the Audiophile 2496 a couple of years ago, it was the sound card installed in his superduper audio recording workstation. I bought two sound cards from tom and his Dancing Dots business, whose price was competitive with vendors on the Internet. My techie who I originally found on Craigslist came by one weekend and installed the sound cards on two computers as well as the Delta audio interface. He also adjusted JAWS so it used the computer's onboard sound card on one of the machines. The sound quality is excellent with a greater depth and clarity than what I thought possible from a computer sound card. It is especially bright and clear when playing audio in 24 bit mode in Winamp. the card is quiet, producing no background noise at regular sound levels. I decided not to go with the Creative cards, including the Audigy, after reading many end user experiences of mediocre quality and a relatively high noise floor compared to the Audiophile 2496. I had used the SoundBlaster card with my DOS machines in the 1990s and with my first Windows machine this decade. End users spoke about a good, but not truly great sound from Audigy cards and there were a fair number of reports of enough quantization noise that it posed a real irritation for some. I did not find these reports from Audiophile 2496 end users though. While I was comfortable with Creative products, I wanted a device to take me to the next level in audio quality from a computer's on board sound card or a SoundBlaster. I came to realize that an Audigy would not fully take me to this new place of high quality audio that I had never been before. The drawback to this card and most of the M-Audio cards is that they are intended to be used with either a mixer or microphone pre-amplifier. There is no microphone input on this and most M-audio cards. Also, all the complaints on all the online forums about the documentation and learning curve of the Delta audio interface are absolutely true and accurate. the interface is complex and the documentation is skimpy and poorly worded. I read through the manual about five times before fully understanding it. In my day job, I read through lengthy and complicated policy and program documents all the time so a software manual is hardly a challenging undertaking. Yet, I was on my fifth reading when I did a sentence by sentence analysis of the manual when I finally got it, which was about after two or three days of staying focused on this device. I knew I could call tom of Dancing dots with some questions but I first had to know enough to formulate a question! the trickiest part was configuring the card for recording. both the card and the mixing sections in the Delta interface needed to be configured properly for audio input from the card's line in jacks to be recorded properly. In the end, I now easily obtain broadcast quality recordings with many complements. For those like me who work in a corporate environment or large government agency here in the United States, being able to use a Mac with voice Over is a near impossibility. rather than learn two operating systems, I use Microsoft Windows exclusively as do hundreds of millions of others throughout the world. This serves me well with quality audio output and very good audio recording and editing options.

Re: Sound devices for the PC
Thanks, this sounds interesting so I'll take a look at that. On 18/02/2008, at 5:02 PM, Kelly Pierce wrote: Dane, A couple of years ago, I wanted to obtain excellent audio at a reasonable price. After sifting through years worth of messages on this list and that of blind tech, the consensus from the enlightened and informed was the Audiophile 2496 sound card from M-Audio. The card includes the Delta audio interface. My aim was to increase the sound quality of the music I listen to using my computer and to also feed voice recordings from the community recorded with a minidisc recorder into it. My research and decision was confirmed by a conversation I had with Tom McCann, proprietor of Dancing dots. tom created a really nice web page, sorting out the sound card issue for blind musicians. It can be found at: http://www.dancingdots.com/prodesc/soundcards.htm When I bought the Audiophile 2496 a couple of years ago, it was the sound card installed in his superduper audio recording workstation. I bought two sound cards from tom and his Dancing Dots business, whose price was competitive with vendors on the Internet. My techie who I originally found on Craigslist came by one weekend and installed the sound cards on two computers as well as the Delta audio interface. He also adjusted JAWS so it used the computer's onboard sound card on one of the machines. The sound quality is excellent with a greater depth and clarity than what I thought possible from a computer sound card. It is especially bright and clear when playing audio in 24 bit mode in Winamp. the card is quiet, producing no background noise at regular sound levels. I decided not to go with the Creative cards, including the Audigy, after reading many end user experiences of mediocre quality and a relatively high noise floor compared to the Audiophile 2496. I had used the SoundBlaster card with my DOS machines in the 1990s and with my first Windows machine this decade. End users spoke about a good, but not truly great sound from Audigy cards and there were a fair number of reports of enough quantization noise that it posed a real irritation for some. I did not find these reports from Audiophile 2496 end users though. While I was comfortable with Creative products, I wanted a device to take me to the next level in audio quality from a computer's on board sound card or a SoundBlaster. I came to realize that an Audigy would not fully take me to this new place of high quality audio that I had never been before. The drawback to this card and most of the M-Audio cards is that they are intended to be used with either a mixer or microphone pre- amplifier. There is no microphone input on this and most M-audio cards. Also, all the complaints on all the online forums about the documentation and learning curve of the Delta audio interface are absolutely true and accurate. the interface is complex and the documentation is skimpy and poorly worded. I read through the manual about five times before fully understanding it. In my day job, I read through lengthy and complicated policy and program documents all the time so a software manual is hardly a challenging undertaking. Yet, I was on my fifth reading when I did a sentence by sentence analysis of the manual when I finally got it, which was about after two or three days of staying focused on this device. I knew I could call tom of Dancing dots with some questions but I first had to know enough to formulate a question! the trickiest part was configuring the card for recording. both the card and the mixing sections in the Delta interface needed to be configured properly for audio input from the card's line in jacks to be recorded properly. In the end, I now easily obtain broadcast quality recordings with many complements. For those like me who work in a corporate environment or large government agency here in the United States, being able to use a Mac with voice Over is a near impossibility. rather than learn two operating systems, I use Microsoft Windows exclusively as do hundreds of millions of others throughout the world. This serves me well with quality audio output and very good audio recording and editing options.
