RE: converting Audible files to other formats
I was just curious. Is it possible at all to convert the nls files or rfbd files to play on an ipod or like device? Thanks. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Christopher Chaltain Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2009 6:52 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: converting Audible files to other formats Thanks all for the information. I personally didn't interpret do not decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer the Audible Content as prohibiting me from converting the media format. Maybe if it had said electronic content instead of audible content I might have interpreted it differently. After all, you are allowed to download it, stream it and write it to CD for your own personal use. Granted, I might have read this with a pair of rose colored glasses on. I guess my main point was two fold. First, I saw quite a few sites which claimed that their product was a legal way to convert Audible files into other formats and other sites which talked about what was and wasn't legal given Audible's terms and conditions, the DMAC, fair use and court cases, which lead me to believe that it isn't clear what is and isn't legal in this case. Second, as others have stated on this list, I doubt any company or law enforcement agency would prosecute anyone who was making copies for their own personal use and was scrupulous about making sure those copies didn't end up in anyone else's hands. Note that I also feel it's clear that sharing these files, even with a few friends, is illegal, although maybe not unethical.

I don't know about Canada, but in the US, copyright law has a fair use exception. There is really nothing to stop an individual from making copies or otherwise using products they own for their own purposes. I assume the manufacturer's purpose behind the provision you quote is to discourage dissemination of these materials. But if individuals don't have that intention, I doubt the manufacturer would have any reason to care. Correct me if I'm overlooking something.

IE8 and access issue re. streaming audio site
This may be primarily of interest to UK subscribers, but I think the service being discussed here can be accessed outside the UK. Posted originally on Blind Audio, I'm forwarding this to a few lists as, though not effecting me personally, I nonetheless feel Microsoft should be made to listen and act positively in this matter. (Direct email contact at end of message) Ray Forwarded message. Please do pass this around any lists you can, I need as much feedback as possible. Dear all, Many thanks to those of you who have contacted me recently regarding Internet Explorer 8, and the compatibility issues that Microsoft have with embedded real audio. I have two separate and long conversations with Microsoft IE8 technical support over the last couple of days, and they have confirmed that there is a serious compatibility issue. To cut a long story short, I believe that those of you who received the update for Internet Explorer 8 in the last few days (roll out began March 18) will only hear silence when accessing http://www.pressakey.net and any other page on the Audio Network. As yet, there are no plans for a patch to fix this problem. I'm asking for your help in confirming this issue, which I am going to take to Bill Gates if I have to. Please would you let me know if you can hear any audio on the following web page, and what browser you are using. It means a lot to be able to show Microsoft that is is a real issue with more than one person. Please try to listen to http://www.pressakey.net/ Just for yours and everybody else's information, I did a quick count up of the total page views and visitors for the Audio Network over the last 12 months. On average there are over 400 visits per day, and over the last 12 months visitors have opened up almost half a million pages - I know that is small compared to the big guns I am talking with, but I hope that those kind of numbers might just show them that people are finding the site useful, informative, fun, and a part of their lives on a regular basis! Please pass this on to as many people as you possibly can, asking them to do the same, and let me know the results by return of e-mail. Thank you for your help and support, Thanks!

Re: Textaloud wont read pdf document.
After all this time, you may already have answers to your question, but just in case you don't, here are some questions that I hope contain an answer or two. Are you sure that it is a text based .pdf file, or is it an image? If it is an image with little or no text to be read, then Textaloud, like your screen reader cannot read directly from the document. If it is text based, then I don't know what the problem might be. Have you tried reading the file with your screen reader first to make sure that it isn't actually a series of graphic images with text written on them? If it is in deed an image, and not a text based document, you might try running the document through an OCR program like Openbook, or Kurzweil if you are fortunate to have either one of these programs. After doing so, then convert the resulting text document to something that Textaloud might recognize, then try converting to .mp3. I must admit, that as an only occasional Textaloud user, that I've never attempted to have Textaloud render a .pdf file into audio, but if it is designed to do so, then the suggestions I've given above will work. Sure hope I'm not out of line here, and hope you've solved your problem by now. At 02:18 PM 3/24/2009, you wrote: Hello friends!

JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs
Hi all, I was hoping someone here could be of some assistance. For the past several years, I've been using Bear Share Lite 5.2.5. Its been incredibly reliable and user friendly. However, I'm now running into a problem, in that it will no longer connect to the Gnutella Network. I'm thinking this could be a compatibility issue with the firewall settings in certain versions of XP. I've turned off the firewall and checked Bear share as an exception, all to no avail. I'm beginning to think 5.2.5 is no longer supported. Has anyone run into this problem? If this continues, I'm looking at another easy-to-use sharing program. I'm not looking for Torrents, mind you, just a program to download individual tracks. Are there any suggestions? do scripts exists for versions of Bear share later than 5.2.5? I'm currently running JAWS 10.0. Thanks. Donovan To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs
Yeah, bear share works fine even with later versions. Mind you you need to use the jaws cursor, but its ten times easier to use than kaza (which probably has more spyware than you can shake a stick at by now anyway), and win mx which is pretty much obsolete, and finally lime wire, well, we won't even go there - you can get it to work, but its hit and miss, and more hit than miss in most cases. Besides, it uses the same network as bear share, so your getting the same content, anyway. contact details: email: tcwoo...@shaw.ca and others msn: the_conman...@hotmail.com skype: the_conman283 system details: Hp pavillion dv5220CA notebook pc AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-37 2.0 GHZ, 1024 mb DDR ram, Fujitsu 100 gb 4500 RPM Hard Drive, connecsant AC-link audio - Original Message - From: Michael Amaro mikeam...@earthlink.net To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 3:15 PM Subject: Re: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs I am using jaws 7.0 XP pro and I have no problems with bear share - Original Message - From: Donovan Tildesley dtildes...@buntaininsurance.com To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 9:41 AM Subject: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs Hi all, I was hoping someone here could be of some assistance.

Hmmm, could possibly be a network problem with Bear share.

RE: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs
Yes, the same version. What I'm saying is that it doesn't appear to work properly when installed on a new computer. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Michael Amaro Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 5:49 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs I have the same version of bear share.

This connection problem only occurred when another blind friend of mine installed it onto a newly-reformatted Del computer, which had gone from Vista to XP. It works fine for me, but after I installed it on a computer which I primarily use for work, I had the same connection issues. I'm thinking that either Bear Share is having network problems, or 5.2.5 no longer works for new installs. - Original Message - From: Michael Amaro mikeam...@earthlink.net To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 3:15 PM Subject: Re: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs I am using jaws 7.0 XP pro and I have no problems with bear share - Original Message - From: Donovan Tildesley dtildes...@buntaininsurance.com To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 9:41 AM Subject: JAWS Compatible Music Sharing Programs Hi all, I was hoping someone here could be of some assistance. For the past several years, I've been using Bear Share Lite 5.2.5. Its been incredibly reliable and user friendly. However, I'm now running into a problem, in that it will no longer connect to the Gnutella Network. I'm thinking this could be a compatibility issue with the firewall settings in certain versions of XP. I've turned off the firewall and checked Bear share as an exception, all to no avail. I'm beginning to think 5.2.5 is no longer supported. Has anyone run into this problem? If this continues, I'm looking at another easy-to-use sharing program. I'm not looking for Torrents, mind you, just a program to download individual tracks. Are there any suggestions? do scripts exists for versions of Bear share later than 5.2.5?
