RE: Can't do streaming audio with WMP.
You've probably got Winamp installed? Here's a little trick I discovered. I don't know why this works, but it does. Here's what you do. Get into Winamp preferences, then file types. Now tab to the button that reads none and hit enter. Now tab into the list view of file types and select only mp3. OGG and m3u. to play. Your file will now launch Windows Media Player and play fine.

Is there any way I can listen to real streams using winamp? I know there used to be TARA, but I've lately tried the new winamp with a dot RAM file and it won't play.

Subject: explorer won't permit playing of .pls or .asx files. Hi. I'm having trouble opening .asx and .pls files from within Internet explorer. The only option that I receive is to save the file to the desktop, and explorer doesn't want to recommend that because it claims that the file is either corrupted or has an incorrect file type. This claim is questionable, because it prompts me with the same message no matter the source of either file type. Further, when I save target as and open the stream in question from the desktop, it works just fine. Given the fact that I like Internet Explorer about as much as some folks in this group like Real Player, what I would really like to do is switch to a non-Microsoft browser. However, since WindowEyes and Jaws only work with IE, it would seem that I'm stuck with it. So, does anyone have any idea of how I might go about getting IE to stop vetoing .pls and .asx files? One other thing, I downloaded Winamp 5.1 the other night and the problem seemed to start right after that.

RE: gigs, megs, megabytes
Just two more mentions. Why would anyone want to store CD Audio or cda files on their computer. That doesn't make sense. A cda audio file takes up tons of room compared to an mp3 file. There's no difference to the quality as far as I can tell. Also, I wouldn't create and store ogg files. You can burn a data album of mp3's from your computer and play it in many home CD and DVD players, Sony Discman etc. But you can't burn a data disc of ogg files and do the same.

You must remember that your 80gb drive needs to be formatted before it's ready for storing data. From personal experience the formatting data in itself could take up to 5 percent or more of disk space. How many megs would a CD take up? That depends on the length of the CD. the average length of a pop or rock CD is usually around the 60 minutes mark but that could vary hugely with live recordings. The approximate conversion ratio is 1 mb per minute.

Fun With Your PC Audio.
Hi all, Let me share with you a little of the fun I've been having these past few days. What I've been doing is opening WinMX and, in the two edit fields, I have been entering the name, Karaoke, pronounced, Kary oki. When I do this I get about 4 thousand different types of Karaoke files to down load. These files are much like mp3 files, only I guess they are larger in size. I believe they are larger in size because they are video files with the extension of mpg, not mp3. Anyway, what these files give you is a video of the artist as he is singing the song. Lets say you downloaded Frank Sinatra singing New york New York.. The file would open in Windows media player, that's fine because, as I've said, it's a video, or mpg file. But at the bottom of the screen, because it's a karaoke file, you will get the words or lyrics to the song. This is really cool if you start to fool around with it. And here's how you fool around with it to have fun. These mpg or Kari oki files are broken into two parts, the left hand speaker, and the right hand speaker. The right hand speaker contains the vocals or the words to the song, the left speaker contains the music to the song. If you bring up your sound volume control, you can turn down the volume to the words by moving the balance to the left, or bring the words up to the foreground by moving the balance to the right . You can now search for the lyrics to that song on the internet and learn them off by heart. Practise learning the words along with the music on the downloaded karaoke file by moving the balance to the left or right to bring up the music and or vocals. Think on how you can now be a hit at your local pub on karyoki night. But what a way to have fun with your PC Audio. Any questions on what I've mentioned?

RE: Windows Media still playing cd's
Hi Scott, Try this, Go to my computer and hit enter. Highlight the D drive and select properties. Do a shift tab to General tab and right arrow to the auto play tab. I'm hoping you will find a fix in this section if you take a look around. There's all kinds of auto play options in here.

RE: Windows Media still playing cd's
Otherwise Scott, there's something else you can try. Get into the CD via windows explorer, highlight one of the files, which probably has an extension of cda, that is, C D A. hit the right windows key to open a pull down menu. Select open with. Now select choose program and hit enter. From the list provided select Winamp. This isn't very clear, but you should get the idea as you go along.

RE: Backing up mp3's onto a dvd
Hi Gary, I think this is what Andy is trying to do. He writes: Hi all. I've converted 14 Roy Harper albums to mp3 format and would like to back these up onto a DVD to save disks. I'm using Easy CD Creator version 6.0 and would really welcome a step by step at how to achieve this. I've attempted but cannot manage it. I have discovered that the albums amount to 1.37gb. Is this too large for a DVD? Any advice would be very appreciated, folks. Thanks. Best wishes. Andy from sunny Kilcreggan.

RE: Backing up mp3's onto a dvd
Hi Andrew, Did you get this one from Doc: He writes: I'm not sure if a data dvd can be played on anything but a dvd player. I'll have to experiment. Maybe he'll get back to you on that. I can't have a try at it as, although I do have the latest Easy CD and DVD creator, I don't have a DVD burner.

I could also listen to it on my dvd player which is under my tv. I understand that a dvd can hold mp3 tracks, but cannot get Easy CD Creator to do it for me. Best wishes. Andy from sunny Kilcreggan.

I imagine if this is possible then you could perhaps contain an artists complete discography on one DVD? I'm assuming a DVD has more than 1 Gig of space, otherwise you'd just place the discography on a regular CD. Which is fine if you only have a discography of 8 albums or so. But if an artists discography amounts to some 15 albums, then a DVD with the space of perhaps 2 Gigs would certtainly be the way to go. If this is the way you went and you placed all of an artists discography on one DVD in mp3 format, could you then play that DVD on a stereo slash mp3 player? Hmmm. Now 14 Cat Stevens mp3 albums on one DVD playing all day on one DVD disc. Man I'd be teasing Buddha in Katmandoo with a chocolate bull at four on a broken morning in room C79 while I waited for the peace train.

Not sure of Logitech, exactly, but I suspect they only have a range of ten to twelve feet. For a good wireless keyboard you can't go wrong with a Gyration keyboard.

PC and Recording
Hi all, Perhaps I'm fortunate in that I've just subscribed at the same time as this thread. I have a similar wish as Jim in that I want to record a radio show from the internet. I'm using Goldwave to do so and I've been told that I have to set my audio device to 'What you hear'. My problem is, within the configuration of my Toshiba, I don't have the option of, 'What you hear' I have Mono Mix. Stereo Mix, CD Player, Line in and Phone line. Absolutely nothing close to, 'what you hear'. My question is, given that I don't have this option, is there another work around that will enable me to record from my sound card. I'm using Windows XP home Many thanks. Peter ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
