Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking what you're doing and for what you want
the $35.00 is quite appropriate.

The $60.00 is far more configurable and gives you more VPN protocols to use,
you can use a VPN for secure Internet browsing for example so its not
specifically just for listening to audio.

Now a question for you, does the $35.00 per year allow the user to have
multi sessions through different servers?

Say for example you can be listening to one radio station in the U.K. whilst
listening or watching/recording something else from the U.S.

 Hi All,
 
 
 
 Cricket Australia has announced today that its live audio radio 
 streams are now available world-wide. For the first test the radio 
 streams were only available inside Australia.
 
 
 
 Note that the radio streams are free so there is no need to 
 subscribe as in the case of the video streams.
 
 
 
 You can find the streams from the Cricket Australia links on my 
 website  .
 
 
 
 Happy listening. Especially to friends outside Australia and the UK.

2013-12-05 Thread Jeff Samco

Hi, Andrea,
I have a bluetooth transmitter made by Taotronics. It is about the 
shape and size of 3 sticks of chewing gum one on top of  the other. 
It has a 3-inch cord with a male 3.5mm stereo plug. There is a 
rechargeable battery charged using a micro USB cord. It only has a 
single button for turning on, pairing, etc. I think I paid just under 
$30 from Amazon. I use it exactly as you have described to stream 
audio from an MP3 player to either a stereo pair of headphones or a 
Plantronics M50 single earpiece.

HTH,
Jeff

Even if Amazon won't send it to Australia you can get it through International

that it charges via a USB socket.

 Hi All,
 
 
 
 Cricket Australia has announced today that its live audio radio 
 streams are now available world-wide. For the first test the radio 
 streams were only available inside Australia.
 
 
 
 Note that the radio streams are free so there is no need to 
 subscribe as in the case of the video streams.
 
 
 
 You can find the streams from the Cricket Australia links on my 
 website  .
 
 
 
 Happy listening. Especially to friends outside Australia and the UK.
 
 
 
 It may also be of interest to you that the current West Indies tour 
 of New Zealand streams are available from my page.
 
 
 
 Cheers,
 
 Stephen Jolley

The only thing I need it for is to listen to the sports broadcasts on bbc
five live and five live extra.  That is why I am quite willing to fork out
the $35 for that.  The pro package would definitely be overkill for that.

Yes, I know people who use that particular plan, I have different needs for
different platforms and so on as I use different VPN systems and protocols
so I need the extra package but even at $60.00 per year its still damn
cheap.

Only problem is of course that - for both the Witopia packages - you have to
pay per year, I'll be renewing my package in a few days time for another
year of unrestricted enjoyment and peace of mind type security.

I should also mention that you can follow Witopia on Twitter or Facebook and 
this is recommended since you can find out about the latest servers which have 
been added in various cities and countries throughout the world, find out about 
server outages or report any problems you may find yourself.

Yes, I know people who use that particular plan, I have different needs for 
different platforms and so on as I use different VPN systems and protocols so I 
need the extra package but even at $60.00 per year its still damn cheap.

Only problem is of course that - for both the Witopia packages - you have to 
pay per year, I'll be renewing my package in a few days time for another year 
of unrestricted enjoyment and peace of mind type security.

Its unlikely you'll find anything to suit your requirements.

For example how would you power such a device? you need the power to 
transmit the Bluetooth signal.


If you want to use your Bluetooth headphones with your MP3 player you're 
going to have to get a player that can use Bluetooth to transmit to the 
headphones.

Question about Distortion

2013-12-05 Thread Sleepysaurus
Hi List.

I must apologise first of all if I don't explain this very well, I'm not PC 
audio savvy and may therefore leave out vital info the more knowledgeable of 
you need to help me diagnose the 
problem. Anyway, here goes.

I'm using Goldwave to record through the line-in on my PC, and this works well 
for the most part. The only slight problem is that loud noise, explosions etc 
always get distorted through my speakers, but not on the recording itself. I've 
played about with the line-in levels and they're set down at 12, so I don't 
feel this is where the problem lies.

I'm using creative labs 2.1 speakers for the PC and the distortion problem 
doesn't exist when playing music or internet radio.

Is there some kind of level or setting I'd need to look at within the windows 7 
system that may be causing this sound problem? Something in my playback or 
recording settings perhaps that could need adjusted?

Any advice gratefully received.

Darran

Hi

I have the blue yeti not the pro one but I think basically it is the same
thing.

It is supposed to run from the standard windows drivers. Don't know if it
works with windows xp though?

Intro and request for help with testing or developing NvDA app modules for some audio editors and streamers

2013-12-05 Thread Joseph Lee
Hi folks,

My name is Joseph Lee, an undergraduate computer science student at UC
Riverside. I decided to join this list to learn more about various PC audio
software options out there, as well as to get input from users regarding
NVDA app modules for various audio editors, streamers and a like.

Although I'm not a newbie when it comes to working with audio software such
as GoldWave (which I use to produce various tutorials), I decided to join
this list to learn more about other audio editing and streaming software for
PC's. I also like to collaborate with a number of members on testing various
audio software for accessibility issues.

The other reason I came onboard was to request input from users on using
various audio software with NVDA. As a contributor and add-on developer for
NVDA, I know that users play significant roles when it comes to writing app
modules for NVDA for a program. So far, I have written an app module for
improving usage of GoldWave, with another app module for Station Playlist
Studio in the works.

For people who use these programs or other audio software, I'd like to
gather input from you, the users of various PC audio software on programs
which would see benefits from writing an NVDA app module. Specifically, for
now, I'd like to work with users of GoldWave and Station Playlist Studio on
how I and other NVDA developers can improve usage of these programs for NVDA
users.

If you want more information on NVDA, please write to NVDA Users list hosted
at Freelists. If you'd like to help out with actual code writing for the app
modules, please write to NVDA Add-ons list, again hosted at Freelists. If
you are interested in testing the app modules for GoldWave or Station
Playlist Studio, please write to me offlist or post a message to the NVDA
list and I'd be happy to work with you on improving the app modules.

Thanks.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi Muhammad,

I've been away from my email for past 24 hours and will be again for a day
or two, so sorry it's taking me a while to respond.

I can only speak about the service I use which is call My Private Network.
You can google that to find the URL if you would like it. With that
particular service, the country access depends on the package. I have 
access

to UK sites only for a mere 5 British pounds per month  by the way.

On another matter, as I'll explain on the list shortly, I contacted 
Cricket

Australia today to let them know that the streaming wasn't working for
screen reader users. The person did seem to understand what I was saying 
and

assured me that it will be attended to along with other issues they have.
Let's hope it doesn't take them too long to fix it.

All the best,
Stephen

Thanks much, Stephen.
Just a dumb question, I understand that I don't need VPN for Cricket
Australia, however, if I have a VPN, would it work everywhere, for 
instance,

Australia, UK etc or I need a separate VPN for each country?
Thanks!

Hi All,



Cricket Australia has announced today that its live audio radio streams
are
now available world-wide. For the first test the radio streams were only
available inside Australia.



Note that the radio streams are free so there is no need to subscribe as
in
the case of the video streams.



You can find the streams from the Cricket Australia links on my website
 .



Happy listening. Especially to friends outside Australia and the UK.



It may also be of interest to you that the current West Indies tour of 
New

Zealand streams are available from my page.



Cheers,

Stephen Jolley

RE: Ashes coverage

2013-12-05 Thread Stephen jolley
Hi all,

It appears Cricket Australia have changed the interface to the Flash player 
links to the stream and for this test it isn't working for screen reader users.

I have contacted them by phone, today to let them know that it's not working 
for us. Surprisingly, the person I spoke with did seem to understand what I was 
saying and assured me that it will be attended to along with other issues they 
have with the website. Let's hope it doesn't take them too long to fix it.

I have an mp3 player with 3.5mm headphone jack.

I have newly acquired bluetooth stereo headphones.
Does a device exist which I can plug to 3.5mm jack and bluetooth to my 
headphones?
