 Whin I had a laptop from these guys it too had no stereo mix. Stereo mix

 if you got rid of that driver other than you'll loose any supposedly cool
 sound effects that come with that card, and if it can do 24 byt recording,
 you might say bie bie to that too. My new Dell Inspireon desk top has Stereo
 mix, but my Dell Inspireon laptop does not. They are boath dell by the way.
 The cool thing that the laptop has on it that is better then the desk top,
 is that it can do 96 KHZ 24 Byt recording. But I love that my new Desk top
 has Stereo Mix back. I don't get why my favorite dell PC which is the XPS
 doesn't. Oh yeah it also doesn't do 24 bit audio in. They all do 192 24 byt
 out. The only Dell that does this in and out or it did apparently in 2008 at
 least, was the Optyplex. That was super epic. But again, no Stereo Mix.
 Thanks a lot RIAA. It's all their falt. So yeah, do what you will, and who
 knows, perhaps you could do without the inhanced audio thing, but that's up
 to you.

 Hi.
 
 Well I have a Toshiba satellite pro c 50 -a.
 
 When I listen on the speakers, sound crappy and very tinny.
 
 No stereo mix, in the sounds, no dts.
 
 Using the intel us audio drivers.
 
 So what happens if I uninstall the enahanced Toshiba audio driver.
 
 Will that improve.
 
 On headphones, it is okay, sound could be better.
 any suggestions, or any resources, or point me to any links.
 
 Before I do any thing.
 
 Thanks.

 Ah but you see, that's the thing. I did that. Boath show disabled devices, 
 and show Disconnected devices. No sigar. Not on the Inspireon lap top at 
 least. Oh hell yeah this brought it out on the new Inspireon desktop. This 
 crud goes back to Vista. So I knew about this. Rick Harmon figured it out. I 
 think this was when he called Vista a monster. Lol! Pooor Vista, I loved it 
 for what it was. But yeah. That's why I thought it was a luck of tge draw

Hi,
   Quite awhile ago, there was someone on accessible world who developed a

Hi
You can't really download from Youtube itself, it's mainly meant for
watching videos, creating playlists and sharing them with social media.
If you want to download the audio from it there are a few websites out
there that'll do this. One is

http://www.youtube-mp3.org

it's a very simple site with an edit box for the link for the youtube
video you want to download, a convert button and a few other basic
links.  It's very fast, but the limitation is that it only converts
videos that are less than 20 minutes long. If you want something longer
than that, yes there are videos that are quite lengthy on youtube, the
site you'll want to try is

http://www.ListenToYoutube.com

One important caviot about this site is that it sometimes likes to throw
up a popup window that completely covers up the website, so to get rid
of this, simply press control plus f4 and the popup window will close,
but the website will stay open.  After it's converted your video, it'll
have a link that says click here to get your download link, that's when
the popup window might happen.  But on the resulting ppage, you'll find
a button that says, click hhere to download.  it's a button so just keep
that in mind.

I hope some of this helps.

Re: beginners help with youtube?

2014-12-27 Thread Matthew Bullis
So a few things here: You can Google for the accessible alternative to Youtube. 
There are also keyboard shortcuts built into Youtube. If you turn off the 
virtual cursor, meaning you can't then use first letter navigation keys, you 
can then use the letters j k and l to rewind, play/pause, and fast forward. If 
it's Jaws, the keystroke to turn off the virtual cursor is insert Z, and again 
to turn it back on. However, if you're listening to a YouTube and all you 
really want to do is pause and get up from your seat for a break, then use the 
pass through key, which in Jaws is insert 3 on the number row. This lets Jaws 
ignore the next key press, so you could just press K to pause the video. Then 
when you're ready, use the pass through key again and type K to resume playing. 
As far as downloading to make mp3s, I found a nice free one from
www.DVDVideoSoft.com
and it's a program which installs on your hard drive, and you copy the link 
from a YouTube and use the program's Paste button, then tab to download. This 
program has ads, and sometimes it loses focus, but it will do the job nicely.

It doesn't seem like (at least to me) that ripping CDs with Windows Media is
as cut and dried as it used to be with WMP 11; that's why I went back to
Cdex!  As I said before, it seems strange to me that CD 1 and CD 2 did just

Well now...since I have an earlier version OD Cdex, would it help if I went
on and upgraded to the latest version?  I think (even with the version of
Cdex I have) there may be a way to get the information from a different
source...although I don't remember exactly how this is accomplished!  I
still think it odd that the CD I'm having the problem with comes from that
same boxed set (if the whole set was that way, I'd maybe agree that the
company didn't bother to put out the info) but it's the same set (CD 1 and 2
work fine) but thanks to those of you who are making suggestions and who are

   similar problem a few months ago (I had a problem with a boxed set
   on Hank Williams (Cdex wouldn't tell me the track info) well I have
   something similar, only this time, it's doing fine with the first
   two CDs of another boxed set that the Bare Family folks put out a

   but with the third CD, Freed (or whatever it's called (will not

   there a way to make it work?  Could it be that I just need to wait

BTW-decided I'd give it another go with Cdex in hopes that maybe last
night's problems were a fluke as it had worked with the first two CDs from
the boxed set; no soap!  Same results!  Is still telling me no match
found!  I don't understand!

Download the Player.exe from
http://www.vuplayer.com/player.php
Install it and agree to terms.
Start the player.
Insert a CD and wait till it's recognized.
Pres control+p to export the information in the player.ini.
Open CDEx and cancel the process of searching the data base.
Press alt and navigate to the right to CDDB.
Press arrow down till you find Read from player.ini and hit enter.
The information should be there.
I only very rarely have a CD that the combination of FreeCDDB and Gracenote
don't cover.

Good luck and get back to me, if you need any further help.
Take care,
Alexandra

  That's quite often the case with free CDDB which is why I complement
  it with GraceNote and it's Player.exe. Although I read that the latest
  version of CDEx also supports Music Brains.
  Haven't gotten round to try it though.

Okay...I checked this out; from what I'm seeing, it'll work with any system
except for Windows 7 (says nothing about 8 or higher) so I can only assume
this won't work on my machine as it is a Windows 7 64 bit machine!  Is this
correct?
