RE: CdEx Data Base Question
What next button do you refer to? When I insert the CD, CDEx retreaves the data from the database FreeCDDB and I press F8 or F9 to extract the content. This must be set correctly in the options however.

When I press the Next button that comes up, it will retrieve the track titles.

Audio On iPhone 6
Hi! I received my new iPhone 6 this afternoon. I won't go into it all here but I will tell you that the audio out of the internal speaker is excellent, a vast improvement on the iPhone 5 but then again, that's been the way of Apple to be honest, with every new model of iPhone has come an improvement in the sound quality of the internal speaker. Dane Trethowan's iPhone at +61400494862 has had the privlidge of delivering the above eMail to you.

RE: Cdex Data Base Question
Dan and list: I've used CDEX before and never had to tab anywhere; it may be that the particular CD you're working with is one that CDEX can't get (or the source that CDEX uses to get the track information) isn't able to come up with the info for this particular CD (had an experience like this with CDEX a few months ago) Tom Kaufman -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Dan Kerstetter Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2014 11:22 AM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: CdEx Data Base Question I've been using this program for years and have never encountered this before.

RE: DLNA Devices
Which app are you using that allows you to specify the DLNA output device? I'd like to check it out. Have to also check File Browser and see if it supports this.

DLNA devices are the actual players themselves such as my Denon AVR2113, Pioneer systems, Yamaha stuff and so on, I have an App that handles both - that is you browse to the file or playlist you wish to play and then you're prompted to send the audio or the video to the output DLNA device. File Browser is an excellent value for money app, will play with it some more later on today after I finish work.

They will be competing not only with other set top boxes like Roqu but also with smart TVs. I believe you will see all kinds of new stuff on the next gen Apple TV including app support opening up the way for web browsers, and yes, even file browsers with DLNA support without any sort of jailbreak required.

RE: CdEx Data Base Question
I'd never use the newer versions like 1.70 beta 4 or the 1.70 full version. I tested them on several machines and they don't rip to wav files properly. There's just a very distorted noise when you try to rip to wav. The older version uses the same lame engine and I don't see any improvement in handling the software since it hasn't become more or less screenreader friendly. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Dan Kerstetter Sent: Friday, September 26, 2014 1:53 AM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: CdEx Data Base Question I know what you mean.
