Re: The Klango Player
I'm not a user of the Klango Player yet, but a few minutes with Yahoo! led me to the Klango Player readme at http://en.klango.net/readme/index.php?type=readmelang=enidx=0toc=expanded. On this web page it says in part: Klango Player, the accessible multimedia center The Klango Player is one of a kind in the way it uses and combines an aural interaction, sound, speech synthesis, media, internet, social functions and more.

Hey folks As the subject line says, I've figured it out so let me try to explain this the very best I can. I followed Anthony's suggestion, and this time, I kept JAWS 9.0 running while I ran the Klango Player, just to see what might happen. I have a host of SAPI 5 voices installed here so I figured at least one of them should start at some point. I ran the Klango Player DX Mode option from the menu, it actually shows up as a regular file in windows explorer which I thought was kind of interesting. Anyways, I heard the tick, tock, sound as before. I know on this particular machine that sometimes it takes a while for one of the voices to load. So I remained patient to see what happened. After waiting only about 30 to 45 seconds, I heard the Realspeak Samantha voice, which is my default SAPI synthesizer start speaking. I again followed Anthony's awesome advice and created an account from with in a program. You're presented with a menu and the first choice is log in, and the second choice is create an account. To choose an option, just press enter. To create an account, you first enter a username, and then press enter. If your username is accepted, you can then create a password. You're then asked to enter it again. If you forget it there is an option to remind you later so don't worry. After that, you're asked to enter an e-mail address so that they can send you an e-mail with your password. So I set that up and we were all good. It asks you if you'd like to enable auto-login, which I then turned on. The really interesting thing about this program is that when you're presented with a menu of choices, or you're asked to enter information, the voice is panned completely to the left, and depending on what you do, the voice pans over to the right. To conseptualize this, imagine that you open the menu bar with the alt key. Your first choice will be spoken in the left speaker. As you use your right arrow key to move along the choices, the voice moves further right, until the last choice is read only in the right speaker. This is cool because it kind of gives you an idea of where you are within the menus. Cool feature! I took a look at the media section and it contains a number of radio stations, podcasts and audio books, just as we've read before. The cool thing about the Podcasts is that you can choose to actually listen to it before you download it to your hard drive. So if you don't like something you won't waste time downloading stuff you know you don't want. Nice! Overall this player is a lot of fun! I do think they need to make things a little easier to understand on the documentation end so that people will understand *exactly* what is going to happen before they get started I.e. In other words, In the documentation, they should mention that a tick, tock sound will be heard while your SAPI 5 voices load, and that it's important to run the DX Mode option first and wait for your default SAPI 5 voice to start speaking. I think this will help new users feel a lot more comfortable. Hope that helps clear things up. Thanks again Anthony for your great advice on getting this going for me, and thanks to everyone else who responded to my original question too.

Re: Klango player, success!
Hi As I said in my previous message, the media section of the player includes a number of radio stations, podcast and audio books you can listen to right from within the player. It also allows you to send and receive private messages, sort of like IMs, and every user gets their own Microblog, or at least that's what it's called. You can also play a dice poker game on it, and this is only the beginning. and as I said before this is all self-voicing, no screenreader required.

Re: Klango player?
The first thing you need to do is go to their web site and register. Once you do that you can then start the player up and you'll hear that tick tock but it should only last for a few seconds and then a slight pause and the speech should come on. It is an interesting player in the fact that you can listen to lots of streams and podcasts as well as books. You also can download their games and play them. They only have a couple of games. The player is self voicing but I leave window-eyes running and it works fine here. I don't claim advantages over winamp but they have done a good job as far as grouping lots of streams in to sections. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 7/3/2008 at 6:32 PM Chris Skarstad wrote: Hey folks For a while now, I've heard about the Klango player, a number of people have mentioned it on several different forums and things.

Re: Klango player?
Hi Don Ok, very interesting. There doesn't seem to be a clear way to register. There's a profile page which asked me to log in. so i picked a username, but there was no place for a password. so I did that, then the next page asked me for a password which I typed in. However, it said password failed. I've been all around the site, and I'm just not sure where to actually register. so how do I log in? I know, seems like a silly question but this sounds interesting. I believe all the developers are blind which answers some of the other questions so far. At 06:50 PM 7/3/2008, you wrote: The first thing you need to do is go to their web site and register.

Re: Klango player?
I went to this player's website and didn't see a registration link. I did see a link where I could learn more about the player, and I found a download link as well. It seems to me that I must be missing something incredibly obvious, but I can't figure out what. Has anyone hear successfully registered the player?

Re: Klango player?
Hi Ok, I'm feeling incredibly thick here. When I ran the player originally, I didn't have any kind of a screenreader loaded, because I was told that the player was self-voicing. Looks like you have to have something like JAWS or Window-eyes running at first? As I said in my first message, I heard a tick, tock, tick, tock sound coming from both speakers, it was kind of a cool effect, but not when you don't really know what in hell is going on? So from what I'm being told here, you have to use the player to register? *is still confused, someone help? I feel as if I'm missing something incredibly obvious. But you know how that is, it's probably something so obvious I never thought of doing what I'm aparently supposed to do?

Re: Klango player?
Hi Funny thing is I have 6 or 7 Sapi 5 voices installed including Microsoft Sam, so I'm not exactly sure what's up? I figure if I keep a screenreader running I *should* be able to set up the account though, correct? If that's the case i'll just keep it running instead of relying on the sapi 5 speech.

Re: Klango player?
At least you have some company. I still don't get it either. I have Microsoft Sam along with a whole cast of characters on this machine. But if this player is self voiceing, wouldn't that mean it should do more than the tick tock thing even if i had no screen readers running? Or um, maybe not?

Hi Ok, I'm feeling incredibly thick here. When I ran the player originally, I didn't have any kind of a screenreader loaded, because I was told that the player was self-voicing. Looks like you have to have something like JAWS or Window-eyes running at first? As I said in my first message, I heard a tick, tock, tick, tock sound coming from both speakers, it was kind of a cool effect, but not when you don't really know what in hell is going on? So from what I'm being told here, you have to use the player to register? *is still confused, someone help? I feel as if I'm missing something incredibly obvious. But you know how that is, it's probably something so obvious I never thought of doing what I'm aparently supposed to do?

It seems to me that I must be missing something incredibly obvious, but I can't figure out what. Has anyone hear successfully registered the player?

The first thing you need to do is go to their web site and register. Once you do that you can then start the player up and you'll hear that tick tock but it should only last for a few seconds and then a slight pause and the speech should come on. It is an interesting player in the fact that you can listen to lots of streams and podcasts as well as books. You also can download their games and play them. They only have a couple of games. The player is self voicing but I leave window-eyes running and it works fine here. I don't claim advantages over winamp but they have done a good job as far as grouping lots of streams in to sections. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 7/3/2008 at 6:32 PM Chris Skarstad wrote: Hey folks For a while now, I've heard about the Klango player, a number of people have mentioned it on several different forums and things. Visiting the website http://klango.net didn't really tell me all that much, other than it's a media player, and is self-voicing. Now, as most of you probably know, I'm a big time fan of Winamp, and I've even given Foobar 2000 a shot. I've even tried real alternative and thought they were all pretty cool. I downloaded and installed the player, thinking that my Sapi 5 synthesizers I had installed would just take over and I could navigate the screen, but all I heard was a sort of tick, tock, tick, tock sound going from left to right in my speakers. Not having speech, I sort of panicked and really haven't played with it much since then. So, what can this player do that Winamp can not?
