Re: re question about audible
Well, with ie10 and windows 7 x64 and Window-eyes, near the top of the regular page it says library, if I click on that the page I get has where you can search your entries for the past six months, and I think I can download from that page, the download manager has been kind of funky, but I did manage to do it.

Unless the new stream has very different hardware, I find the old one was not very stable -- I must have had several new ones and repairs over the years I have had the thing.

Re: for soundforge users
The stereo mix is gone in Windows 7. If soundforge won't record from software stream, then get total recorder and I use that all the time to do just that. It also works in background as well. brian parker wrote: > Hi listers, i am still in trouble with my soundforge 7. i have got the > line-in working, thanks to people on this list. i still can't find how > to record in soundforge from a radio input picked up from the > internet. i have installed soundforge on at least three computers over > the years, and have not had this problem before. there used to be > something like, stereo mix or something. if someone can help, i would > be grateful. i am using windows 7. p s. at what version of soundforge, > was append added to the open dialogue. brian. > > > To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: > pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org -- Your life is like a penny.

Re: re for soundforge users
hmmm, do you have the same sound card in your old machine as in the new one? This may be the difference, although I have never seen that stereo mix in Windows 7, but maybe you had it in that particular sound card. Total recorder video professional is what I recomend and I think it must be $50 or there abouts. Hope this helps. brian parker wrote: > Hi, thanks for your message. there is a problem. certainly this > windows 7 doesn't seem to have stereo mix in it. the trouble is, that > when my previous machine showed signs of packing up, that also had > windows 7 as its operating system. and with that machine i used > soundforge for line-in and recording from radio on the internet. so, > how could one lot of windows7 have stereo mix, and not another one. is > total recorder a free system. it doesn't matter as i can afford to buy > it if it is one for sale. brian. > > > To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: > pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org -- Your life is like a penny.

Re: re for soundforge users
Hi. I just thought I'd chime in here to say I found no such disabled device -- I found a couple of ones not plugged in, but nothing like Stereo mix. I find total recorder does record what I hear because they have a kernel driver, but no device like that.

Re: total recorder questions
Your problem is a bug and you have to go into your processes and close it manually. I would love a solution -- this happens to me all the time, I just close the program either in the process tree, or with a nice powershell command I found. Then once closed you have to restore your system sounds, if you have them turned off in total recorder. tim cumings wrote: > i'm planning to use it to record calls using gw connect. > > - Original Message - > From: "Christopher Wright" > To: "PC Audio Discussion List" > Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2014 9:07 PM > Subject: Re: total recorder questions > > > > Hi Tim, > > What are you planning to do with Total Recorder? > > - Original Message - > > From: "tim cumings" > > To: "PC Audio Discussion List" > > Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2014 8:47 PM > > Subject: total recorder questions > > > > > > I'm running total recorder on a windows xp machine with window-eyes > > 8.4.

Re: Tecsun PL880 Radio Arrived Today
I just got mine as well and its seems quite nice -- my environment is not great -- two computers running, but the radio does very well in the short wave and fm bands and the am is not bad at all. I was unable to activate some of the hidden features, however -- holding down the 9 key had no effect whatsoever. One nice feature is if you are using ssb the band controls cycle through the ham bands, if you switch to normal the band selector cycles through the broadcast ones.

Re: tecsun pl880
I was able to set a preset on page 0, but when I was on sw and pressed memory twice, it mixed it in with the ones I had on FM, so that was confusing for me. Also, I was having trouble entering them with the keypad, maybe you have to enter the page number, but that always did not work, if I were on another page.

Re: bluetooth problem: one for the books
This is a characteristic of bluetooth, maybe airplay i.e. over your wifi network would work better, but USB would do best, with the mixers these days all having some kind of USB output. I don't know if there is a USB Y-connector, but it would have to be powered, most likely. Joe Giovanelli wrote: > Hello, Everyone, > > I have been involved in the audio field since about 1947!!

Re: victor Reader Stream V Book Sense
I have never even used the VR's native transfer. I got a card reader and its not hard to just copy the files on the card. They have software to do this as well, but I never felt the need for such software. The stream already plays mp3,ogg and I think wma, but am not sure of the wma. I never used it, but I am pretty sure it plays wav as well.

No, the usb cable is to connect the player to your computer in case you download a book. Otherwise the flash drive connects right to the player without any cable.

Re: RECORDING FROM YOU TUBE DOT COM
Don't get too excited about the quality of the files from youtube, they are meant to be flash files, so maybe total recorder will download them and keep them that way and you can convert them to what you want. I think the video is an addon for total recorder.

Re: Accessible Audio Editors etc
Hi. I just tried the software and although the menues spoke, I opened a .wav file and could not see much in it -- furthermore, I could not press any buttons in the preferences dialog and some other places and have them work and even the space bar in the file, even though it said play/pause, did not play -- the only thing which made it play was going into the menues and selecting play from the action menu. Have you gotten any better results?

I am not seeing all of these issues -- be sure to upgrade to latest version. Pressing spacebar on hide seems to put it into the system tray.

Re: What's the best Internet radio recorder.

hmmm, all I do is set the job to background recording, maybe you set it to record instead? Works for most streams, and if you can give the direct URL to the stream, so much the better.

Re: back ground recording in total recorder
If its using flash, you may need the video pro edition.What you can try is to use the check function when you reach the open url dialog box. If you get the audio to start the actual URL will be shown and put that in the scheduler. Dave Scrimenti wrote: > Background recording is finicky.

Re: back ground recording in total recorder
Did you change the URL to the one listed in a list box which would be the direct stream -- not an asx file? kev lyon wrote: > hi, i've already done this and it says the URL is fine and it will > play it quite happily. it just won't record it as a background > recording. i can't work out why. > kevin > kr...@eklyon.co.uk > - Original Message - > From: > To: "PC Audio Discussion List" > Sent: Saturday, August 13, 2011 7:33 PM > Subject: Re: back ground recording in total recorder > > > > If its using flash, you may need the video pro edition.What you can > > try is to use the check function when you reach the open url dialog > > box.
