Update on Power DVD
Hello, I have fixed the problem with the screen resolution. I had to put it on landscape. However, once I activated the product, it said that Power DVD is not responding. Every time I chose to wait for the program to respond, all it would do is bring up the same dialog. I'm using the Deluxe version of the program. Does anyone have any ideas?

Fwd: SkypeTalking 0.8 released!
From: Hrvoje Katic hrvojeka...@gmail.com To: skypetalk...@googlegroups.com Dear friends, Proud to release exciting new version 0.8 of SkypeTalking. This is the fourth release, and contains lots of new features and some bug fixes and improvements as well. Comparing to first release from February (SkypeTalking 0.5), this is a big step forward! Some highlights of this new release are chat monitoring, easy way for changing a mood text on the fly, improved support for file transfers, better reporting of call duration, contacts manager and SMS support. I would like to thank again to all of the contributors, as well as our second developer Gianluca who has also made a lot of work on V0.8. Now regarding the translations. The following translations still have to be updated. They will unfortunately be outdated in 0.8. These are as follows: czech, spanish, japanese, polish, portuguese and chinese. All others are updated, including the documentation. I am just unsure for russian and ukranian readme but whatsnew is translated. We also simplified the installer, and jfwapi.dll is now automatically registered, so users running 64-bit JAWS should no longer have problems with SkypeTalking not detecting JAWS. SkypeTalking can now also be launched with Alt+Ctrl+Shift+T hot key, which I didn't mentione in whatsnew, so this will be updated for the next version under 0.8 section. Everyone here on SkypeTalking mailing list was able to follow how much work we've made on this new version, and thus every feedback is welcome. We fixed some bugs, and some may be still present. The one problem that we are aware of is slower performance with some commands e.g. slow loading of contacts manager, slow reactions with end call command (alt+ctrl+shift+end) etc. Another bug is where SkypeTalking will say New SMS when that's in fact a new file transfer. I also experienced some interesting problems where some events are not spoken sometimes for some reason, so I ask myself, if they are spoken in general, then why they are sometimes ignored for no reason, even if ignoring is off. I hope that we will be able to address these bugs, but in general the program should work quite well. Here comes the complete list of new features copied from what's new document as well as the download link for both portable and installer versions of SkypeTalking 0.8. New: Added the ability to monitor active chats, in other words, opened chat windows. Use keystrokes Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Function keys F1 through F10 to set monitor on one of the last 10 active chats (press twice to bring focus to that chat window). You can then use Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Numbers for reading last 10 messages in currently monitored chat. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+C will announce currently monitored chat, and pressing it twice will bring focus to that chat window. New: Added the ability to read and/or change your Skype mood text. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+M will speak your current mood text, and pressing it twice will open a dialog box that lets you change your mood text. New: Alt+Ctrl+Shift+O command reports the current user online status, and when pressed twice, will report the user's current balance on a Skype credit. New: Added command for speaking the current call duration, Alt+Ctrl+Shift+D. New: Added contacts Manager, accessed with Alt+Ctrl+Shift+F11, which is the alternative to Skype contact list. It will display your contacts in a multi-select list box allowing you to select them with a spacebar and perform various actions on them such as Call, Chat or View Profile. It will also display the Last Seen information for offline contacts, which is inaccessible with some Skype versions and to some screen readers such as NVDA. The View Profile action will open a profile viewer that will allow you to review the selected contact's details by using the Tab and Shift+Tab and the arrow keys. The Call and Chat actions are self-describing. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+F11 twice will focus the original Skype contact list. If multiple contacts are selected, then you will have options for creating a conference or a multi-chat. New: Added commands for answering and ending a call, Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Home and Alt+Ctrl+Shift+End (not on the NumPad). Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Home during a call will toggle between hold and resume for the current call. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Home twice quickly will answer and join the incoming call to a conference. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+End twice quickly will toggle microphone mute or unmute. New: Added support for sending SMS with SkypeTalking. The command Alt+Ctrl+Shift+S will now open an SMS wizard which will allow you to send SMS to any phone number. There are two dialogs, one for the phone number and the another one for the message text. When entering a number, use semicolons to separate multiple phone numbers and also include your country code. If everything is correct, press Enter to continue. Next, enter your SMS text, then

Re: accessible MP3 players
Hi Casey, Glenna ordered the Fuze. The way to get it to speak right out of the box is to plug the earphones in and turn it on. If it doesn't speak after about 5 or so seconds, it most likely just needs a reset, which is accomplished by holding the power button in the on position for 15 seconds and then letting it go. Simple as that. Of course you also get the free tech support and the 90-day replacement warranty in case something doesn't work right.

The last 24 hours of 3mp?The First 24 hours of MTR 1377
Hi! As Melbourne radio listeners may be aware, Radio 3MP ceases broadcasting on the 1377KHZ frequency and a new Talk station MTR 1377 replaces it on Monday at 6:00 am. 3MP has been part of the Melbourne landscape for nearly 34 years so I've decided to record the last 24 hours of 3mP as we know it and the first 24 hours of MTR as we'll hear it! These recordings will be sourced from DAB+ so quality should be fairly good. Also bare in mind that - all up- there will be about 12GB of material as I'll be saving to FLAC to preserve the best quality I can get. I'm happy to share this material - if you're not interested in recording it yourself or you can't smile - so email me privately so I can make arrangements for it to be uploaded and distributed. No sorry, not prepared to upload both FLAC and MP3 versions. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Nad pre-amp model number
The model number of the Nad pre-amp I mentioned yesterday is pp2. I got it about 6 years ago, so I don't know if its still available.

Skype. Newer isn't always better.
I just updated skype to the latest version with Jaws scripts using Jaws 11. There are two issues that I know of that didn't happen with older versions of skype. First. In text chat, Jaws used to start speaking the message as soon as it was received. This no longer happens. Now I must root my Jaws to PC and use the arrow keys to read the message. Second. The alt shift O key no longer says how many of your contacts are on line. Instead, it says unable to get the contact list.

Audio Hijack Pro something I've just discovered
Hi! Well I don't know who to give credit to for this but it seems that -f you're prepared to fiddle a bit - the Effects in Audio Hijack Pro are accessible. For example, select the Effects tab and navigate to the Scroll area, Interact with this. Move the mouse to the scroll area with vo-command-f5 and click, a menu listing all the effects pops up, choose the one you want and press the return key. Now to clear the effect? Go into the Control menu of Audio Hijack pro and select Clear Effects. Yes, some problems still need to be addressed, you can't as far as I can tell adjust the effect or have more than one effect active at the same time - well at least you can't use Voiceover to accomplish these tasks - but perhaps if we keep gnawing away - as we have ben - at the developers then we'll continue to see improvements to what is an excellent product, Audio Hijack Pro is one of those products on the Mac that I myself couldn't do without as it can be put to so many uses, everything from Recording Skype and Ichat sessions to amplefying sound taken from the line-in of the Mac.

The following translations still have to be updated. They will unfortunately be outdated in 0.8. These are as follows: czech, spanish, japanese, polish, portuguese and chinese. All others are updated, including the documentation. I am just unsure for russian and ukranian readme but whatsnew is translated. We also simplified the installer, and jfwapi.dll is now automatically registered, so users running 64-bit JAWS should no longer have problems with SkypeTalking not detecting JAWS. SkypeTalking can now also be launched with Alt+Ctrl+Shift+T hot key, which I didn't mentione in whatsnew, so this will be updated for the next version under 0.8 section. Everyone here on SkypeTalking mailing list was able to follow how much work we've made on this new version, and thus every feedback is welcome. We fixed some bugs, and some may be still present. The one problem that we are aware of is slower performance with some commands e.g. slow loading of contacts manager, slow reactions with end call command (alt+ctrl+shift+end) etc. Another bug is where SkypeTalking will say New SMS when that's in fact a new file transfer. I also experienced some interesting problems where some events are not spoken sometimes for some reason, so I ask myself, if they are spoken in general, then why they are sometimes ignored for no reason, even if ignoring is off. I hope that we will be able to address these bugs, but in general the program should work quite well. Here comes the complete list of new features copied from what's new document as well as the download link for both portable and installer versions of SkypeTalking 0.8. New: Added the ability to monitor active chats, in other words, opened chat windows. Use keystrokes Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Function keys F1 through F10 to set monitor on one of the last 10 active chats (press twice to bring focus to that chat window). You can then use Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Numbers for reading last 10 messages in currently monitored chat. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+C will announce currently monitored chat, and pressing it twice will bring focus to that chat window. New: Added the ability to read and/or change your Skype mood text. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+M will speak your current mood text, and pressing it twice will open a dialog box that lets you change your mood text. New: Alt+Ctrl+Shift+O command reports the current user online status, and when pressed twice, will report the user's current balance on a Skype credit. New: Added command for speaking the current call duration, Alt+Ctrl+Shift+D. New: Added contacts Manager, accessed with Alt+Ctrl+Shift+F11, which is the alternative to Skype contact list. It will display your contacts in a multi-select list box allowing you to select them with a spacebar and perform various actions on them such as Call, Chat or View Profile. It will also display the Last Seen information for offline contacts, which is inaccessible with some Skype versions and to some screen readers such as NVDA. The View Profile action will open a profile viewer that will allow you to review the selected contact's details by using the Tab and Shift+Tab and the arrow keys. The Call and Chat actions are self-describing. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+F11 twice will focus the original Skype contact list. If multiple contacts are selected, then you will have options for creating a conference or a multi-chat. New: Added commands for answering and ending a call, Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Home and Alt+Ctrl+Shift+End (not on the NumPad). Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Home during a call will toggle between hold and resume for the current call. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Home twice quickly will answer and join the incoming call to a conference. Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+End twice quickly will toggle microphone mute or unmute. New: Added support for sending SMS

Your response is closer to what things are really like in this regard. However, if a person really wants to use a Classic or iPod Video they can get the Rockbox software from www.rockbox .org to use on most of these models.

Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?
Hello all list members, Apple is going out of their way for their blind customers. The first few iPods didn't have Voiceover on them. But if you order them directly from them, by special request, they will install Voice Over on them before they ship it to you. I still have my Apple Nano that I ordered 3 years ago, I have no problems getting along with it! And to answer the question about having to use iTunes to put audio files on it, that isn't necessary. Just use the copy and paste command to put them on your iPod. My best regards.

Re: Audio Hijack Pro something I've just discovered
Okay, I'll do my best to explain things here. Given that Audio Hijack Pro handles many sources then how you adjust the level depends very much on what you're hijacking/recording from, with Audio Hijack Pro, Hijack and Record are 2 different operations. In order to Record you first need to Hijack a source, you may just want to Hijack a source rather than record it, when a source is Hijacked, you can redirect its audio for example. Some sources you can adjust the level by adjusting the volume control of that source - say DVD Player -, others are Fixed level sources but the point here is that Audio Hijack Pro is not an editor, only a recorder so if further level adjustments or tweaking is necessary then you Edit the recording which is placed in Audio Hijack's Recording Bin, various other operations are available from there including the addition of effects, burning to CD and so on. I hope this goes some way to explaining things and other Mac users may have additional notes to add.

Well I don't know who to give credit to for this but it seems that -f you're prepared to fiddle a bit - the Effects in Audio Hijack Pro are accessible. For example, select the Effects tab and navigate to the Scroll area, Interact with this. Move the mouse to the scroll area with vo-command-f5 and click, a menu listing all the effects pops up, choose the one you want and press the return key. Now to clear the effect? Go into the Control menu of Audio Hijack pro and select Clear Effects. Yes, some problems still need to be addressed, you can't as far as I can tell adjust the effect or have more than one effect active at the same time - well at least you can't use Voiceover to accomplish these tasks - but perhaps if we keep gnawing away - as we have ben - at the developers then we'll continue to see improvements to what is an excellent product, Audio Hijack Pro is one of those products on the Mac that I myself couldn't do without as it can be put to so many uses, everything from Recording Skype and Ichat sessions to amplefying sound taken from the line-in of the Mac.

Re: Audio Hijack Pro something I've just discovered
Right, well if you work for a radio station then you may like to consider Amadeus Pro for your editor, full multi track capabilities and so on, sounds as though you're going to have fun in the next few months then? smile.

Given that Audio Hijack Pro handles many sources then how you adjust the level depends very much on what you're hijacking/recording from, with Audio Hijack Pro, Hijack and Record are 2 different operations. In order to Record you first need to Hijack a source, you may just want to Hijack a source rather than record it, when a source is Hijacked, you can redirect its audio for example. Some sources you can adjust the level by adjusting the volume control of that source - say DVD Player -, others are Fixed level sources but the point here is that Audio Hijack Pro is not an editor, only a recorder so if further level adjustments or tweaking is necessary then you Edit the recording which is placed in Audio Hijack's Recording Bin, various other operations are available from there including the addition of effects, burning to CD and so on.
