Subject: Victor Reader Stream 2nd Generation

Hi!

I just bought one of these units and would like to make comment on my
purchase.

Firstly I think that the unit does a brilliant job for what it is in
most respects.

The sound from the internal speaker is a little muffled however - having
already heard a VR Stream - I was already prepared for this, a bit of an
annoyance one might say so to overcome this I use a small BUniden
hand-held amplified battery speaker I've had for years, cost me $25
about 7 years ago, pity the Stream doesn't have Bluetooth but I guess a
product can't have everythint.

Now I don't know whether this is my unit in particular but I have
noticed that the downloading of data seems to be incredibly slow
compared to other devices I have on my network, I used the "Check for
Updates" function and - according to that - the firmware is up to date,
well at least the data does get downloaded I guess.

There's a hell of a lot of functionality packed into the VR Stream box
and a lot of this - such as the Internet Radio, podcasts and so forth -
I won't bother using - given I already have better solutions for that
sort of thing - but for those who don't the VR Stream provides a great
entry level to the world of Internet Radio and Podcasting.

Getting online with the Vision Australia library was a snap so I
downlaoded a couple of books.

Again, I have other Apps and so forth which I prefer to use myself but
the Stream is convenient for reading, no doubt about that even though I
read all my newspapers these days straight from the web site its good to
know I have a reliable backup.

Hello everyone,

It's possible that someone on the list may have already asked this question
some time ago, but I have no way to confirm that. Anyway, I'd like to
install Virtual Audio Cable on my computer to check it out and see what its
like. However, while researching about the software, I'm a little concerned
about the complexity of the process. People online have been saying that
uninstalling VAC is not quite as straight forward as uninstalling other
programs is. I've heard, that Virtual Audio Cable is one of those programs
that likes to spread its particles all around the windows operating system,
which means having to messa round with the system registry and/or installing
some third-party software just to get rid of it. Have any of you ever tried
using this program? Is it really as difficult to uninstall as some people
say it is? I just thought I'd find out now, before installing some piece of
software to which I won't be able to uninstall very easily. Thanks in
advance for any help.

Mike

The service will only work in English and accuracy of the translation

Hi Joanne,
I think I've found a solution to help. I've had this same issue at one time
where every time skype would ring, my audio would lower. To fix this, if you
can get to your sis tray, arrow to the right, until you get to something
that says speakers/headphones or speakers. This is where your ducking
options are. Press the applications key, and arrow down to sounds and press
enter. Then tab till you get to a tab control box and arrow to the right
till you hear communications. Next, tab until you get to a group of radio
buttons, and arrow down to the do nothing option. Then tab to ok, and you
should be all set. Hope this helps.
Mike

Subject: every media player on computer lowers jaws volume

Now I remember many of us struggling many years ago with the problem I'm
having, usually happening with the old real player but also with some winamp
output plug-ins.  So I'm surprised that it's happening and I know my
settings are right.  Jaws is set to allow other audio and my players are no
different than they've always been.  But whether it's Jaws 16 or 18--the 2 I
have on my windows 7 system--if I play an audio file and use Jaws, the Jaws
volume goes down super low.  I don't have loud volume on my media players
mostly because I want to work with other programs while listening to music.
But as soon as an audio file starts I can barely hear Jaws.  The file stops;
Jaws comes right back up to the right volume.  This is a dell system with
real tech high definition, and between Jaws going out and the shaky type
sound of the files I don't know if it's sound card or external speakers or
maybe Jaws needs repair?  And it's no respecter of media players--VLC,
Winamp and Windows Media Player all cause Jaws to lower volume.

Would appreciate any thoughts.

Joanne

  I have a Logitech Webcam - actually I have two one for each computer - 
  that works absolutely flawlessly on Skype and Facetime and it must do 
  because others comment on the video the camera is capturing.

  The camera has facial recognition and can auto focus - follow a face 
  around a room - apparently.

  I don't use any extra software, I know the camera does install some 
  drivers or whatever but Skype and Facetime seem to handle the rest of 
  everything.

  Audio is first-class through the logitech camera which has two built-in 
  microphones - one each side of the lense - and extra circuitry to 
  capture sounds around a room and block echo, it actually works believe 
  it or not and the blocking is the best I've heard apart from my Pollycom 
  Hands free desktop conference phone and the Gigaset DX800A desktop phone.

  Camera is worth around $90 and is easy to set up, just place on a shelf 
  or on top of your monitor - on a tripod if you like -, plug into a USB 
  port and away you go.

Subject: Replacementfor Winamp

Hi all.

I've been using Winamp for many many years now quite happily.

I don't create play lists, tag files or use anyplug ins.

All I do is make Winamp my default audio player and either press the enter
key on an album or within Applications, select play in winamp.

So I need a version of Winamp for another computer and I've no longer got
the softwear.

I got a copy of Winamp Version 5.... and installed it and straight away
it wanted me to create a playlist and it's seems that I can't get away from
this feature by disabling it.

Or am I wrong?

Any advice would be verry  very welcome.

Very best wishes.
Andy.

Thanks for that.

I don't always expect people to agree with me and its those

A study was published recently which found that very few people these 
days have an interest or a hobby which I find astonishing.


There are many and varied interests and hobbies just as there are many 
and varied types of people around but not having an interest or a hobby 
is totally unimaginable to me and I'm sure to many others here.


I have many interests and hobbies and obviously some of these are radio, 
audio and computers.


I value the input from others here such as Mary, the various John's and 
so on, hopefully others will contribute and relate their experiences.


It doesn't matter what you're favorite audio equipment is, you may be 
perfectly content with a $40 pair of computer speakers or you might have 
some sort of exotic pure beast that you'd like to tell us about, we're

Yes indeed and I’ve just chosen my gift, the B T7 Bluetooth Speaker, I’ve 
heard it often enough so now time to own one.
The B T7 is - in my view without a doubt - one of the best Bluetooth 
speakers to own and - whilst a little more expensive then some - its not 
outrageously so, in Australia the B T7 retails for $549 so I reckon it 
would be around two thirds of that in the U.S.
Naturally the B T7 has AptX decoding as standard and a very good battery 
life to boot, 19 hours from a full charge.

Anyhow I’ll write more about the product when it arrives.

Where could something like this be obtained?

Emne: Windows 10 and Cortana

Hi!


I'm surprised Cortana hasn't been mentioned here 
at all, for those who don't know Cortana is the 
search facility in Windows 10 which combines 
Voice Recognition to search for and accomplish tasks.



I use Cortana from time to time but for some 
reason I don't feel as comfortable using Cortana 
on my Windows Desktop as I do using Google on one of my Android devices.



In my view Google products have a strangle hold 
on the Voice Recognition game but having said 
all that its early days for Cortana and we're 
going to see a lot of development in this area 
from all sorts of players and perhaps we'll even 
see Apple with their SIRI catch up in this area too.



I've been able to have Cortana open Apps on my 
computer, tell me the time and current 
temperature in different locations and have 
Cortana open various web sites but I haven't 
really been able to get much further than that.



I tried to have Cortana send an eMail but I was 
told I didn't have an eMail account configured 
which isn't quite correct, I use Mozilla 
Thunderbird on the Desktop PC and - whilst 
Cortana has no problem whatever in opening 
Thunderbird when commanded - it must rely on an 
Outlook Email account or something similar set up, that's my assumption anyway.



Surprisingly I haven't been able to get Cortana 
to "Call" numbers and this struck me as very odd 
given I have Skype, a Microsoft product 
installed on the system.  When I asked Cortana 
to "Call 123 4567" I was told that, "Sorry, I 
can't call anyone on this system".



So there we are, my few cents worth on 
Cortana.  Besides the voice recognition features 
is the search feature from the keyboard which I 
just wouldn't be without and of course I've been using this since Windows 7.

I've experienced this same oddity with the AppleTV 4th and 5th Gen. 
It's like VoiceOver activates starting at volume 0 and then it 
automatically raises the volume to the level set in settings after a 
few seconds has elapsed. Once it stops speaking (It's silent for at 
least 5 seconds) the volume automatically decreases down to level 0. 
It's like VoiceOver is in sleep mode waiting for a command to speak 
something. I'm not even sure if Apple realizes this quirk happens 
with VoiceOver on the AppleTV.


I don't experience this at all on my iPod.

I recently got a fourth generation Apple TV and connected it to a 
Samsung TV which is connected to a Klipsch sound bar via optical 
cable. After some experimentation, including switching out the cable 
and trying a different and older TV to make sure the problem wasn't 
our newer TV, I have determined that there is an issue with 
voiceover cutting out when there isn't already audio playing through 
the sound bar. That is, if there is a TV show or some music or 
whatever going through the Apple TV to the sound bar, and I use the 
included remote or a Bluetooth keyboard to move around on the Apple 
TV and hear what it is saying with voiceover, there is no problem. 
Voiceover does not cut out. However, if there is no audio streaming 
through the sound bar from the Apple TV, then voiceover does cut out 
and the first words are always missed. Someone on an Apple related 
list said he had the same problem and solved it by using a Bluetooth 
headset. The only Bluetooth headset I have is a single ear piece 
Plantronics, probably about five years old, which I use on my iPhone 
when I'm out. This guy thinks that the issue is some kind of energy 
saving thing in the sound bar that doesn't kick in in time to catch 
the first few syllables are words that voiceover is saying.  I'm all 
in favor of energy savings, but really. This is disgusting. I wonder 
if anybody has a Bluetooth headset solution that won't cost very 
much. I have really nice   Headsets, but none of them are Bluetooth. 
I do not intend to buy the new ones from BMW which cost $400. Smile.

Howdy folks

I have a friend whose interested in getting a digital recorder, she 
doesn't have an iPhone, at least not yet.  She would prefer to spend no 
more than $100 to $120 tops, and since she's also blind it would have to 
have some kind of voice guidance.  Barring that, she'd have to have 
someone go through the menus and learn them that way.  Is there such a 
recorder?  I remember back in he early 2000s, there were lots of 
recorders that you could use and they were really accessible, they were 
great for podcasting.  I'm not sure if such recorders exist nowadays, 
but it would be great.  I'm also kind of curious about this myself I 
have to be honest.  But if anyone has any ideas that'd be great!

Thanks folks!

Hi everyone,

My friend Jay is trying to build a playlist in Win amp. But, for some
reason, files keep playing automatically when they're not supposed to.

Here's what he does:

1.   He presses l to open the add file to playlist dialog

2.   Navigates to the drive and folder where the file of interest is
located

3.   Presses enter on the filename.

When he presses enter on the file he wants to add to the list, the file is
added to the playlist like normal, however, the weird thing is that it
starts playing automatically. This is not supposed to happen. Also, if two
or more files are in the playlist, only one of them is actually showing. The
first file in the list shows, but files 2 and beyond don't show in the list.
Any ideas as to how he can fix this? Thanks.

Perhaps but you must understand that learning about Mac OS and

If you had no experience with windows, you would accept  that the

windows you will find yourself trying to work out the mind set of those

Subject: A most vexing and frustrating with TotalRecorder

Listers,

Please search your memories and tell me if you have encountered this problem. 
But before I get to the problem, which might be obvious by this question. Is it 
possible for an administrator to be able to tell if you are recording a stream 
as apposed to simply listening to the stream on a program like Winamp, or any 
other player for that matter?

The problem I am having is even after setting a scheduled session for recording 
a particular program, TR will record for a few minutes, maybe
20 or 30, and though the recording is continuing, at least it appears that way, 
the audio simply stops being input to the potential recorded product.

I have set the program up to reconnect to the stream in an unlimited fashion, 
but this simply does no good, I still rarely get a complete recording, at least 
not for the past few weeks.

This is a recent Phenomena. I have been making weekly recordings of this 
program for many years, and have never experienced anything quite like this.

If anybody could please give me any insight into just what might be taking 
place here, it would really be greatly appreciated. It really has me pulling 
what is left of my hair completely out!

Sure hope to hear from someone soon, this is maddening!

How accessible are these set-top boxes to someone who is visually

your TV (Using HDMI cable) and have no problem setting it up? I was 
able to do that very thing with my AppleTV 3rd and 4th generation.


And I really hope the Google Talk functionality of these set-top 
boxes isn't like what I experienced on my Amazon Fire tablet. I mean 
the audio accessibility of these tablets is simply... BRUITAL!


I'm more interested in watching (Listening) to MLB, NBA & NFL game

No, the boxes I'm talking about are set-top boxes, not full tvs. The
Shield, which is the most expensive of the lot, runs $200 or so. The
nexus is the original one from google, and rumor has it that a new one
will be forthcoming this year. It was selling quite cheap over here a
few months back, on clearance, I suspect. And the Metracom, or however
it is spelled, runs around $100 or a tad less on amazon. My husband
actually bought one of them, because he wanted to experiment with Kody.
Again, these are strictly set top boxes, more like the Apple tv in that
respect, rather than being a full tv set. How android tv may differ in
these boxes from android tv in your set, I have no idea. Both the
shield and the metracom are advertised as coming with lolly pop version
of android tv, so it seems like they should be the same, just based on
that, and supposedly the two newer devices are in line for the upgrade
to android 6.0.

You can convert m4v files and others quite easily by going to:

They can convert m4v files for you. The only downside to using this site, is
that if you have lots of m4v files, you'll have to upload them one at a
time. All you have to do, is go to the above site, upload an m4v file,
select what format you'd like it to be converted to, type in your email
address then press upload. Within a matter of minutes, you'll receive an
email from the site with a link leading to the file in accessible format
that you can download to your computer. Hope this helps. Oh by the way, it
doesn't cost anything to use this service.

What file format are these files in? There's a video converter known as the

simply download it and to open the program, all you have to do is click on
the .exe file you've downloaded and then click on the aps icon to open the
list of converters. I believe it contains 25 different video converters as
well as an audio converter. If you'd like, I could email a copy to you. I

It is the most accessible, powerful MP3 Tag editor I've used in all

Ok, I do realize this question has probably been posted to the list 
several times, but I'm looking for something more specific.


I'm looking for a totally accessible MP3 Tag Editor that works via 
the "Right Mouse Click" menu of Windows Explorer.


So say I'm looking through a list stored on my PC using Windows 
Explorer. I come across a MP3 song I enjoy listening too, but doesn't 
have any MP3 tag information associated with it.


So I would like to be able to simply Right Mouse Click the file. Then 
select something that says "Retrieve Tag Info." The software would 
then appear and automatically search for songs matching the file's 
naming structure "Artist - Song Title" in a song search engine 
database (Amazon, Google, whatever.) I can arrow down the list of 
matches and select one I feel fits the best and then simply click 
Apply or "Save Tag Info" and then I'm done.


Can someone here please recommend a Paid or Free application that 
works this way? My reason for wanting my MP3 songs properly tagged is 
that it makes it much easier to categorize them in iTunes. Thanks.


By the way, I'm using the latest build of JAWS 17 under Windows 7 (64 
bit) and a TripleTalk USB hardware synth.

In Australia at least not only is the new 4G 
Apple TV being sold but the 3G is also available.


There is quite a difference and the first 
notable difference is in price, the Apple 3G TV 
is around $110 Australian whereas the 4G 64GB version is around $350.


What’s the difference between the 2 
generations? the 4G supports Apps - similar to 
how an iPhone or iPad does - but the 3G 
doesn’t however you can still purchase TV 
episodes and so on from the iTunes store, use an 
accessible version of Netflix, stream your 
Music, listen to Radio Stations and use 
Voiceover, no Siri with the 3G version 
unfortunately but some might still consider the 
3G version an absolute bargain, I know I do and 
- now that I know that both 3G and 4G versions 
are available - I’ll wait a little longer, 
save a bit more and buy both Gens, can put one in the den for example.


And a final word with regard to the Apple TV 4G, 
I notice that Pandora have released an App so I can’t wait to see that.

Hi Brian,
There's a very accessible program, well actually, its an entire pack of
programs. It's called free audio/video pack. I happen to have it and would
be happy to send it to you if you'd like. You can certainly convert mp4 to
mp3 with it.

I honestly don’t know the answer to that question, the Microphone itself would

Perhaps someone else here might have more knowledge on this point than I do as

failing an external synth route your speech to either a USB headset or USB 
speaker For example, on
my desktop JAWS is on a dedicated USB speaker which allows me to run music and 
what have you through
my primary sound card and send that audio to my stereo unmolested by speech.  
When I do the live
webcast I route JAWS to my primary soundcard with SPL off on its own USB device 
and plug an earphone
in so that speech does not enter the data stream.

 Hi.  I was asked to check this out from a user point of view and didn't find 
it accessible.  I was
asked on behalf of a charity project to play around with pre-uploaded music 
files and didn't find
the free version much use.  This guy wanted to upload audio files for the 
public to play such as
info regarding government benefits etc.  I'll paste my response to that guy 
below so you will see my
experience.  Walter.

Hi Glyn.  Firstly my apology; I was going through my deleted items, clearing 
them out when I came
across your email.  somehow it went straight to my deleted items rather than my 
in box.  I would
have replied sooner if I had seen it so sorry about that.

OK.  This is my initial input regarding the site.  The music is displayed 
clearly and the play
button is easy to find and activate but that is where the simplicity ends and 
the problems begin.
Once you have activated the play button and the music plays, there is no way 
you can use the other
play controls because the music drowns out the screen reader and as there is no 
keyboard short cut
keys trying to use them is a hiding to nothing.  You have to wait for a quiet 
passage in the audio
before trying frantically to find a control but the quiet period never lasts 
long enough for you to
find what you want.  This is the free version and I noticed there is a Pro 
service but I guess you
have to pay for that but there is no way of telling if the pro version is any 
more accessible than
the free version and in any case, the people who would want to play any files 
you upload would use
the free service.  As I've said I've only looked at the site briefly and when I 
discovered getting
to the play controls during playback was problematic I didn't go any further.  
As with WMP, if there
were short cut keys such as
Control+s for stop or Control+p for pause or control+m for mute 
Control+or+control
+r for rewind then it would be a good service to utilise.  It might be 
+you
can map the keyboard and create these shortcuts but I'd need to look further 
into the site and I'll
do that as soon as I can.  Of course this initial summery is from a blind point 
of view.  People
with hearing loss or other disabilities but who have site, or even some 
partially sighted folk would
be able to use it.  Unfortunately though if you have no usable sight and in the 
absence of play
controls accessibility then it wouldn't be of any use to them.  Nonetheless you 
have to consider the
majority of people who would use the facility and a minority group shouldn't be 
allowed to veto
something because they are disenfranchised; you can please all of the people 
some of the time and
some of the people all of the time but you will never please all of the people 
all of the time.
This doesn't mean that solutions aren't sought to resolve the 
disenfranchisement and that might be
by linking to another service.  I will ask on the tech lists I'm on to see what 
can be done and will
get back to you.  Walter.

Hi Dane,

Can you please expand on why you find Zoom H1 reliable and faithful?
I don't know enough about portable recordders and I am interestted to find out 
about alternatives to PC/Mac recording.
Also, any podcast about it may help, if you know of any.
Thank you.

  Subject: Received My Olympus DM7


  Subject line says it all and I've been exploring the new recorder for a 
  couple of days though a big part of me does prefer my older Olympus DM4 
  and I'm still quite happy to use the faithful and most reliable Zoom H1 
  which I've had for around 5 years now.

  I think what surprised me is the striking differences between the two 
  Olympus recorders, I know we did have a discussion on the differences 
  between the two machines on list a while back but actually comparing the 
  two physically side by side? Well I wasn't quite prepared for the shock.

  The DM7 along with its looks does throw up some new ways of doing things 
  obviously, the control layout tells you that.

  I think the internal speaker of the DM7 sounds quite a bit nicer than 
  does the DM4.

  I haven't as yet set up the Wi-Fi and I probably won't bother given its 
  limited use, that's a shame as the potential for that function is huge! 
  the hardware is there so why not go all the way and have access to an 
  Internet Radio Database or podcasting Database service? Perhaps I'm 
  talking about a future Olympus machine.

Hi!

John, for some reason subject lines aren’t appearing in the eMail you send 
to the list so perhaps you might like to check your eMail client at your 
convenience to try and work out what’s going on.


regarding your Victor Reader Stream with these Headphones? I don’t own one 
of the latest generation of Streams but I did own one of the previous 
generation and the audio quality was pretty decent through the headphone 
output when it came to music, I’ve no reason to doubt that the later 
generation would be the same if not better and I’ve heard others give me 
encouraging reports on this subject, some people say that the audio from the 
headphone output of the stream is far better than that of the iPhone and 
that wouldn’t take too much to be honest so yep, enjoy your P7’s with your 
Stream.

Hi!

I'm sorry if it is off putting, but right now there's not much I can do. 
Until recently I used Outlook express which worked well for me allowing to 
make all kinds of tweaks. Now with my moving to Windows 7  I have Windows 
live mail and I'm still skating with it.


At some point if I can I will go back to Outlook, but I'm no computer

Hi!

John, for some reason subject lines aren’t appearing in the eMail you send 
to the list so perhaps you might like to check your eMail client at your 
convenience to try and work out what’s going on.


regarding your Victor Reader Stream with these Headphones? I don’t own one 
of the latest generation of Streams but I did own one of the previous 
generation and the audio quality was pretty decent through the headphone 
output when it came to music, I’ve no reason to doubt that the later 
generation would be the same if not better and I’ve heard others give me 
encouraging reports on this subject, some people say that the audio from 
the headphone output of the stream is far better than that of the iPhone 
and that wouldn’t take too much to be honest so yep, enjoy your P7’s with 
your Stream.

Well! I’m saving my money. A question though, I will be listening to a 
lot of my music from my Victor stream, a book player for the blind, would 
that effect the quality of music from what sounds like great headphones?

Subject: Bose and B

Hi there!

Firstly can you please use some sort of subject line so so others may easily 
follow the conversation.


I assume you’re talking about comparing the B headphones with the Bose? I 
had a feeling someone would ask this question and yes, I’ve done some 
comparisons and offer my comments below, I’d be interested in other views on 
this too.


Headphones as far as I can tell fall into 3 main groups, the general 
standard type, the crowd pleasers and the audiophile type headphones.


The general headphones are the run of the mill stuff that you buy from say 
$10 upwards to $50


There are some bargains to be had here but as a general rule if you want to 
hear a top sound for music listening then these headphones aren’t as good as 
others up the price change, good enough for most people perhaps.


I’ve certainly heard some nice sounds in this price range from the likes of 
TDK, JBL etc.


Then you have the crowd pleasers from the likes of Bose, they have a bass 
rich sound but often this swamps the mid-range and to an extent the top 
frequency’s in a musical track but a lot of people like this sort of sound, 
Beats are famous for doing much the same.


Then we come to the top of the line audiophile stuff from Sehneiser, Grado 
Labs, the top Sony stuff, B, AKG etc, these cans are deliberately designed 
to enrich the musical experience when listening to them.


When you listen to your favourite music you should enjoy its clarity to the 
full, these headphones are designed so you can hear the attack of the piano, 
the effects of the guitar, the silkiness of the strings, the whispered words 
in some tracks and so on.


As I say, the notes I’ve written above are just general thoughts I have and 
there are exceptions which I’ve noted here too, some of the cheaper 
headphones really give you bang for your buck but you do have to look 
around, do your research etc.


If you’re on a budget and you want a good set of cans that come very close 
to audiophile spec then you will be astounded at the sound given by the 
Grado Labs SR60I, think they’re around $75 US dollars.


Build quality isn’t superb and no, they’re going to sound rather quiet on an 
iPhone, Note4 etc on their own through the standard headphone jack but they 
do have the sound that’s pretty much unbeaten given what they’re worth.

I have been using the Bose noise reduction headphones since 2010, but they 
either have to be repaired or replaced. Dane’s description of the Bowers and 
Wilkins model, I forget the model number, now has me wondering. Has anyone on 
list been able to listen to both the Bose and the B and W’s?

Howdy!

Yes I’ve heard it said that these headphones can be a little uncomfortable 
over a long period of time listening, I’ve not experienced this yet myself 
and that’s most likely because I don’t usually listen to headphones more 
than an hour at a time before a small break so perhaps that makes a 
difference.


It should also be noted that the P7’s are not on the ear headphones but 
rather go over the ear thus they’re closed and noise isolating so the only 
thing you’re going to hear when these cans are placed on the head is the 
source connected to them.


As far as lightning connector Amps go? I’m sure they’re around, I’ll have a 
look and see what I can find.


Its been a good while since I used an IOS device so I’m not up-todate in the 
world if Lightning Connectors and Headphone amps but I’d be most surprised 
if one didn’t exist, the Amp I used was the old 30 pin Dock connector type 
model but worked well, I’ll write back to the list when I find a model so 
that probably won’t take me all that long, a chat with my friend Google is 
on the cards definitely for this exercise .


Anyway keep enjoying your P7’S as I’m doing.

I've got the P7's and really like the sound. I take them on holiday but

I've looked into headphone amps before, but couldn't find one with a 
lightning connection for my iPhone6. There is one with the older Apple 
connection but I couldn't find any for newer devices and I didn't want to 
use the headphone jack as it would just pass on the faults of the built in 
DAC. I would be interested if anyone has come across ssuch a thing.

Yeah and actually the more I think about it it's true. I heard some BNW

sounded epic. This person was playing the ship fight at the end of A New 
Hope and the X Wings were clearer then I've ever heard them. Keep in mind 
this is on youtube and threw a meh camera, so how must those speakers 
sound in actual life? I want them homy. Thing is that they were several

can't necessarily judge 1 product by another. Especially a cheeper 1 by 1

I don t its a question of what s best, everyone likes different things. 
The question here is about good value for money and good headphones for 
the price.


As I initially stated, - in my view - the B P7 certainly give you that 
for their money, great and natural speaker type sound, incredible tough 
build, luxury finish etc.

The P7's are the best I've heard particularly in their price range, no

Hi Adrien,

I started using this file type for encoding my audiobooks for
listening on my Talking MP3 Player. A friend suggested it because it
takes up less space and the quality is at least as good as MP3 or OGG.

You can use Goldwave to convert them to MP3 if you like.

Hi All,, looking to change how I listen to music on the move.

I have an I phone for work with limited music on it.

I also have a Book Sense that sometimes play music on.

Unfortuantley the quality on the book sense is poor compared to the I phone.

So that leads me to think about buying a second hand I pod even though I am
not an I tunes fan.

A couple of questions please

What generation did I pods become accessible i.e Voice Over and are they all
touch screens.

Can I just connect an I pod to my PC and copy and paste music into it
without using I tunes?

Is there an alternative good sound accessible unit that I will get 2nd hand
at a sensible price?

Rather than buying CD's, ripping them and putting them in a box in the

when the thread changes is expected. If you want some help or you want a
question answered then it's in your best interest to make the subject
line as meaningful as possible.

I don't think the RAR example is a good one since I think the originator
was confused and didn't realize that the RAR file type indicated a
archive and not a compressed audio format. Maybe that subject line
should have been changed, but since the subsequent responses had to do
with which tools to use to unpack the RAR file, I'm not so sure that was
necessary, although I have to admit, I don't remember the subject line
anymore.

Besides, just because someone else chooses to use a poor subject line
doesn't mean that it's then OK for everyone else to do it! Instead of
perpetuating a mistake, you could set an example instead! :-)

 Can't answer that, you'll have to do some research.

 I'm sure I've seen posts on other lists pointing to devices which may

 Anyway to other matters of far more importance.

 An online seller with whom I do regular business with today offered
 me a USB FM/AM/DAB/DAB+/TV Tuner USB stick for $25.00 Australian
 Dollars including delivery to my door.

 To me this was an offer I couldn't refuse, even if I can't get the
 beast working under Window-Eyes which I'm sorry to say will be most
 likely I'm suresmile   then at least I can try another approach or
 at the very worst! it will make a very nice gift for someone who can
 make use of it.

 Now I'm going to give Twitter a mention again because its come to my
 rescue, no sooner did I mention that I'd bought one of these tuner
 sticks then I received quite a few messages from people who use
 Screen reading technology who own these devices, it seems that users
 of JAWS 13 have no trouble using the Tuner Stick whatever thanks to
 the OCR technology employed, they can see the channels and therefore
 click on the one they wish to listen to, record etc so that's neat!

 The software supplied with the Tuner does not I'm told have any
 keyboard shortcuts which is a shame and seems to be very poorly
 written however users of Windows 7 can take full advantage of the
 tuner by using the Windows Media centre.

 I also heard of others who have used this Tuner under LYNUX quite
 successfully, it would appear that LYNUX is the best operating
 environment for this tuner.

 Anyway I'll keep the list informed of my progress with this device,
 should have it this time next week.

Hi,

Pardon me if i'm being too picky, but when a message is posted could you 
please put a subject as to the message's content? If there is no subject 
line then I don't consider the message of importance. I've just noticed 
it a few times here and don't want to short change anyone but some

more on .avi to data DVD subject

[Petro T. Giannakopoulos]

Let us know if that worked for you by using Nero to make a data DVD from those 
.avi files you have and then using your home DVD player to play them back. I 
sure didn't know this was possible to make them play on home DVD player. 
Usually you have to convert the .avi files to DVD using a converter program. 
Why are you using a DVD RW disc? You should only use a DVD -R or +R blank disc. 
Most players now support both disc types but check your manual to be sure of 
this.

If you have Replay AV 8 latest version you get Replay Converter application 
which will do the .avi conversion to DVD NTSC (USA, Canada and some other 
countries). I know the program is accessible because I use it and am a beta 
tester for them. I use JAWS 10. These .avi files how did you obtain them? From 
a camera?

You can also do DVD PAL format disc for playback in most other countries with 
Replay Converter.

Applian makes Replay AV which comes bundled with Replay Converter. They have 30 
day money back guarantee if it doesn't work for you the video conversions to 
DVD disc.

[Pam Drake]

Here's an old message that appeared on Blindtech about the original
machine.  I stress that this message refers to the original unit, so I
agree we'll have to wait to see if the player itself is any more
accessible than the original which, according to this message,
concentrates on giving the illusion of reading a hard copy book.  The
fact the last person who posted info on this saw only information about
speech output and references to flipping pages, and nothing about access
to the unit by the blind, I'd tend to doubt it has anything more than
the Stream has to recommend it for us; but it will be interesting to see
if I am proven right or wrong.

Subject: Re: Kindle reader

As far as I'm aware, the Kindle has no TTS, so there is nothing to speak
the menus or print books on the device. It is an Audible-ready device
and will play mp3 files, but if one is going to spend the price of a
Kindle then the VR Stream is in the price range and would provide
significantly more usability to a blind person. The VR Stream is also
Audible-ready and plays mp3 files as well as ogg vorbis and unprotected
WMA files. More importantly, it has TTS to speak the menus and navigate
the files.

The Kindle was primarily designed to be an E-text reader and that's
where its strength and popularity lies. I'm told by sighted folks that
have seen or own a Kindle that the screen really does give the person
the feeling that they are reading a printed book. I understand it has
the largest screen of any of the current E-text readers and that it
really does an amazing job of looking like a printed page rather than an
electronic screen. But that superior technology does nothing for a blind
person. If you just want a device to listen to audiobooks, then there
are many other much, much less expensive options available.

Now, if you have some usable vision and want to be able to read printed
material, then perhaps the Kindle would be a device worth looking at
just for the reasons I stated above: It has one of the largest screens
and has been designed to be very easy on the eyes. I also understand its
font enlargement capability is very good too.

Hope this helps.

Jeff

Hmm.

No luck with Nero.
Perhaps I should have made things more clear here.
I don't just want the audio from the .avi files.
I want to burn them, in tact, on to a suitable meadia for play in my home 
DVD region 1.

Replay wont do the job in demo mode either.  I refuse to buy before I try.

Any other suggestions will be gratefully received.

 Good morning, Tom.

 I filter list messages into a separate folder, not my in-box. I vote
 against
 putting the list name in the subject line. It's done on another list, 
 and
 I
 often find it distracts me from the real subject. It means I have to

 I know that however you resolve this question, it will be a carefully

 it
 makes for easier filtering. If enough list members want it I'll put it
 in.

Re: List Name In Subject Line

[Gary Petraccaro]

I definitely do not want the list name in the subject field.  It would mean 
taking much more time going through the mail.

 I agree with Jonathan.

 Does it really add anything anway?

 One would hope that list members are experienced enough not to require the
 list name in the subject line to tell them what the source of the message
 is.

 Oh please God, no! It serves absolutely no useful purpose and just makes
 more verbiage to listen through. It's perfectly easy to set up a rule or
 filter based on the header for those who want mail from the list to be in
 its own folder.

 Tom, I'd think this would be a good idea for people that get a lot of
 emails
 from various lists.  I personally like it as well

 Tom, have you thought of fixing it so the subject line has
 the list name? Just my idea.
